Well i'm agreeing with most here, i only lasted 1-2 hours on Saturday before the weather p1ssed on me and p1ssed me off ! Sunday was better, got there earlier while the weather was good, some nice cars, JMR's 16VG60 was a nice tidy engine bay, never saw it do the 1/4 though. Met a few people off here which was cool. Will be going to E38 and hoping its better.

dinkus, Holy sh!t dude !! What the hell happened there, you must of been going fairly quick to cause that ? -
The closest to stock (G60) size is 215/40/16 G60 standard circumf is ; 1809mm with 195/50/15 195/40/16 gives 1767mm 195/45/16 gives 1828mm 205/40/16 gives 1792mm 215/40/16 gives 1817mm 215/35/16 gives 1749mm I'd keep the tyres the same on all 4 if it were me

Mmmmm, will look at that again but pretty sure it was the temp. Is the thermoswitch an easy fix ?? Thanks guys ...
-
Had it exactly ! year this weekend, never behaved like this before....
-
Cheers, weird that the tank is full and the warning light keeps coming on though? It sometimes flashes a minute or so after i've started it aswell, faulty sensor maybe? And its never smelt like this before, maybe something else?
-
Yeah the fan is cutting in - but what temp is this supposed to happen ?? Thanks

H reg black left hooker at 5.30ish near the Ipswich docks (one way system). Doubt its anyone here but what the hell !
-
Not sure whats up here - my C smells like its overheating when i'm in traffic with windows down this week, guage reads 110ish when in traffic and 80 on the motorway.The warning light flashes when in traffic sometimes. It hasn't lost any coolant, can't find any leaks either. Just stinks 'hot' after driving for 10 mins or so. Waterpump ?
-
Just wondering if its worth buying this ? Or shall i just search the good ol' forum instead ??!!

If you draw a 4x100 pattern with 5x112 you'll see that 1 bolt hole clashes with another where ever you try to offset them.....with 5x100 you can go right in-between the other holes.

stevemac, Care to share what happened ??
-
Yeah i'm liking that !! Love silver Corrados!!, and the RH rims really do suit it aswell. Don't like many 5 spoke designs but these and ZW1's look really good.
-
Look what i just found, seems to be in demand aswell!! http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... eName=WD2V

Was that Paul Horrocks aka PhatVR6 ?? They look like his old ones. So what have you got planned for them ? Back to standard or coloured centres ? Chrome rims ?? BTW, do you know how many sets of 003's were made ? EDIT this may come in handy for you aswell, was looking earlier http://www.justmatz.co.uk/products_specials.html

Well looking at your Avatar, reading your sig and your threads about your car i'm not suprised you're getting stressed over it ! It was a huge project to take on and you've done soooo well to get as far as you have mate. You're nearly there so don't give up on us !!! -
Wish i'd heard of this forum before i got my charger re-built at Jabba cos i defo would of gone to G-werks. Although my S4 charger hasn't been a problem (yet) it seems that Darren is a real enthusiast, knows what he's talking about, always helpful on here and other forums and has a better reputation. Will be taking it there for health check and toothed belt kit when i can afford it......
-
Oh dear - OUCH !! Not to worry tho mate they can be fixed ! Have you heard of these guys http://www.spitandpolish.co.uk from Kent. They have a good reputation AFAIK
-
Looking good there - are they RM's ?? How do you find your Konigs for noise mate ?? I've just fitted some and find the car vibrates alot even with my 15" rims on.
-
Looking good ! What did you polish them with mate ?? I got some Meguairs (spelling!!) metal polish for mine and they came up a treat aswell, still have to wax them too or the brake dust really sticks

Doesn't sound too bad to me, i just paid £300 for my whole rear quarter to be sprayed (inc VAT), my rear arch was pushed in and had loads of scrapes from previous owner. He done a top job aswell. Have you seen his work and are satisfied that it will be good ?? EDIT oops just read you've been before !!
