Its advertised as ' probably the best lager in the world' .............

Those LM's are amazing. TSW's look nice too but whenever you see rims like that you always compare them to BBS'. Could you get RC's shipped from Australia mate ??? I saw a Holden V8 ute with rc's the other day !!
-
Went to see my car yesterday !! No damage at all, picking it up Monday !!
-
Thats OK then !! Sorry for miss understanding you !
-
Blair, Sorry didn't answer your question, i'm a Cabinetmaker, plenty of work over here for me and thats how i got my residency, took me the best part of 3 years though ! Last time i looked IT was still on the occupations in demand list which makes you jump to the front of the waiting list, if you're thinking about it check out http://www.immi.gov.au And if you're ever over here sagain let me know, i'll give you guided tour of the northen beaches in the Corrado !!

Think we were refering to you slating the RS' mate, and comparing them to TSW Venoms.
-
Out of fashion, comparing them to TSW's ?? WHAAAAAT !!! LOL at g-mans post !!

DutchVR6, If yours is a LHD then you won't be able to bring it in i'm afraid ........... Yeah i'm actually now gonna jump on the ferry to the city, it is a fine way to travel !! Jim, THe shell optimax is 100RON apparently, i'll check up on this but i've read something like that on another forum .... EDIT ..... http://www.shell.com/home/Framework?sit ... treme.html 24V Renshaw, I'll get some pics sorted when it arrives, could make a good forum banmer i reckon !!
-
Then blame MoonlightVR, OSV and biggerbigneil as if i hadn't seen theirs i wouldn't of been so hooked on them aswell !!! Good luck getting them sorted guys ...... well worth the hassle IMO !
-
Thank mate, yeah i really can not wait any longer !!!
-
Sounds good mate, i've been doing a bit of surfing myself. Also been fishing and caught a Shark right next to the wharf where the ferry docks !! Wasn't exactly Jaws but it was about the length from the middle of your chest to the floor !! Know what you mean with the weather awell, but it goes as quickly as it arrives, it wa raining and really windy a couple of days back, soon brightened up. My Corrado is here !!! Well its been unloaded at Botany Bay anyway, might get to see it later !!

We do but its about 2 months late, and not many newsagents stock it. That would be wicked. Looking forward to seeing it in there. Keep seeing Corvettes with your rims over here too ! -
Andy T, Sorry mate they're not mine in the pic, just a guy in Adelaide with a Mk 2 Golf i know. He had spacers and spigott rings made up for them . I've got the RS 003's which are 4x100 ET25.
-
Same here mate !! Hence the complicated, stressful, expensive and exciting shipping of the beloved Corrado !! Should have arrived today but havn't heard anything yet. I'm in Manly, did you ever get the ferry over here from circular quay ??

Can you post a copy to Australia please !!! -
I've got 16" RS' but i'm one of the lucky few who have the 4x100 ET 25's Take a look at these, been re-drilled very well.......by an engineer over here in Australia. As for protecting them, i use mer wheel wax on mine and havn't had any problems. They do dull off a bit but get yourself some 'Meguiars Metal Polysh' and they'll look like chrome.
-
Get them re-drilled i say, i've seen some done that were 5x112 so at least with 5x130 you won't have to fill the old holes. Then just get some spigott rings to sort the centre bore issue out. Actually, have a look at these ......
