Do you think it left the factory like that ?? It looks very new and standard

Nice !! But there is another Brown one, the UPS one :lol:

I like this one !!

Looks like Radostormvr6, is in the lead then ! But his is one of the newest Corrado's .... theres definately something very addictive about the Corrado, alot of long term owners here, mine had 1 owner since August '92 till i got it May 2004, 11 years 9 months !! Keep them coming ..... 8)

Looking nice as ever, RS' will look great when you've finished. Quick question for ya, your red rear lights seem to have a perfect colour match, were they sprayed with the red tinting spray or red paint ?? Forgot to ask you at E38 !!

I'd say its definately your wheel bearings mate, mine went a while back, was terrible on a smooth road at lower speeds especially, above 80mph it started to dissapear. Like you said, when i cornered on to side where the noise came from it went away. Also i never noticed mine that much until i changed the suspension, it got so noisy my G/F covered her ears up on some roads !! The way bearings are designed nowadays means they can be fecked but you won't have any 'play' or movement if you try and shake your wheel

Pugs are 4x108 ...........

RW1, 9 Years is gonna take some beating !! Have you ever been tempted to sell/have a change ??

Are Ford 4x100 aswell ?? I noticed an RS Focus with 4 stud and Brembo brakes the other day............pretty sure SEAT are 4x100 anyway, must be possible ....

veeDuB_Rado, Yeah thats a point, it must be !

I'm bored !! Only had mine since May 2004, how long have you had yours ?? Anyone had one since new ?? 1 Radostormvr6 Since new! 10 years 5 months 2 Davidwort 9 years 8 months

Heres a pic of the Pro Alloy FMIC which is a twin pass aswell. I think you have to move the rad to the left (to next set of holes on cross member) and cut a small piece out of the slam panel ........ not that i want to advertise Jabba !!

gsbellew, Makes sense now !!

rmn, Is the intercooler you're after going into a 16VG60 ?? Arn't you building one ?? Just a thought but i'm sure the Golf limited had a Rallye FMIC didn't it ?? If so wouldn't it go in your Corrado ??

Will definately keep you guys posted, i'll tell you how lovely the weather is etc !! And of course when (not 'if') i get problems this will be the first place i visit !! I'll have to get the classic Harbour Bridge/Opera House backdrop pic !! I'm flying over next week, got to get a job and a place to live WITH a garage sorted before it arrives :)

Jim, Thanks mate, and, also thanks to you about a year or ago you told me about G60JAY who shipped his over, he's been very helpful. I've done a fair bit of research on car shippers and i'm quite confident 'Karman Shipping 8)' are very good at what they do, so hopefully there won't be any problems. gradeAfailure, I'll give you guided tour of the Skateparks in the Rado if ever you're over, PM me h100vw, Hope things work out for you aswell mate, sure we'll meet up over there at some point 8)

Well, this could be the last time i see my car !! Unless they float that is !!?? Its on its way to Sydney Australia, where i should pick it up on November the 16th.............. look i cleaned it Kev !!!!

RM's are 2 two piece splits, found as standard on the Mk 2 Golf G60 edition 1 and an optional extra on the 4 cyl Corrado's. Starkys are RZ BTW Starky ........ http://the-corrado.net/.archive/forum/viewtopic.php?t=31052 You know you want them !!!!

Chek out this German how-to for fitting a Rallye FMIC, gives you an idea of how big they are and what a tight fit it is. Is it gonna be a tight fit to get the pipework in there for you ?? Would it go in ? http://www.corrado-psychopath.de/9254.html

Go and measure it !! Looks sweet 8)

The FMIC is the first mod i'll be doing - Darren reckons its a 15-20% power increase !! Not a cheap mod though

What a waste !!

:shock: :roll: http://media.putfile.com/FerrolividLo

Heres a stupid question, WHY remove the Carbon Canistor ??

colourblind, Australian import taxes on most cars is 10% duty and 10% GST. Duty is paid on the customs value and GST is paid on the total of the customs value +duty+cost of shipment. So i've set aside another £1000 for this then 'rego' (tax, registration and 3rd party insurance) about £200 :roll: Still a little un sure on all of this and what the value of my car is over there. I'll update this thread once i've picked it up and paid for everything !! Bally, cheers for compliment dude, i put the RS' on in March and where i'm going theres no need for winter wheels !! 8)
