  1. Corrado-VR6

    Wheels?

    Its time, I'm finally going to get some new wheels for the C but I havn't got a clue about all these PCD's and ET thingys, what is the right setup for the corrado? I've seen some wheels on ebay that say, front axle 8x17 ET35 pitch diameter: 5x100 rear axle 9x17 ET30 pitch diameter: 5x100 Will these fit or would I need to get some kind of adapter to make them fit? also, how do you calculate what tyres are needed? thanks in advance, Dan.
  2. Hi all! I ordered a CAI from turn2 eight weeks ago and still havn't recieved it, they don't often reply to emails so i have no idea of what is happening with my order, they said it was on it's way but that was two weeks ago and still no sign of it, has anyone else had this trouble with them. If i do not recieve it within the next week or so then how do I tackle this legally and what rights do I have as a consumer considering I live in the UK but ordered the item from the US? All your help will be very appreciated as £150 is a lot of money for me to loose. Thanks, Dan.
  3. Does anyone know if rear lights from germany are the same as here. Are they legal in the Uk?
  4. Well the need for a corrado finally got the better of me, I'm picking the corrado up on friday :lol: I can't wait. I've managed to get a 93L VR6 with 80k fVWsh and spotless interior, the exterior needs a bit of work, 1 new indicator and fog but other than that I can't really complain. I had a mechanic look over it and drive it, he couldn't find any problems. So armed with this information, do you peeps think £4700 is a good deal?
  5. isn't there a remote live from the back of the head unit? If not then you can go around testing wires untill you find one that comes on with the ignition and use a scotch lock to join them together, personally I don't like the scotch lock method cos I dont trust the connection but it works and if you can't find any other way of connecting it then it'll do, one really good point is you can usually find a wire close the the amp so you don't have to chase the wire all around the car.
  6. Sorry if this has been discussed before but I've tried doing a search and can't find any discussions about it. I'm just wondering what you enthusiasts think of this new proposed C? personally I think it looks too much like an audi from the front and an astra from the side, but it may begin to grow on me once I've seen it US Models and Specifications: Sport 280HP R32 Wolfsburg 330HP R32S - Vortech Supercharged Autobahn 400 HP W8T - W8 Turbo All with RWD - 2Motion Advanced Traction Control Technology For more info look HERE
  7. the BM has cost me around £2-2.5k in 12 months just on servicing, tyres and fixing various things that have gone wrong, do you really think the C will cost much more? A friend of mine has a VR6 and is a mechanic so I'll get him to service it and do any other things that need doing for a damn site less than I'm currently paying them monkeys at BMW, last service on the BM cost £700, surely running costs of a C can't amount to that much, can they?
  8. Hi! I'm hoping some of you may be able to help me. I'm seriously thinking of getting a Corrado, I'm currently driving a BMW 318is but seek more power and wouldn't mind getting a slightly cheaper car so that I can put some money aside. My problem is mainly the fact that I don't know what I should be getting for my money e.g age,miles,spec ect.. I've got around £4k to spend and really want a VR6. Also, are there any common problems that I should look for in these cars. Thanks in advance, Dan.
