with debt drawing in, im seriously considering selling the VR6. could do with some input as to value. its a 1993 K in grey metallic, 119,000 miles. Timing chains, clutch and head rebuild were done 1 year/19k ago. stainless steel exhuast system and miltek stainless cat replacement pipe. CDA carbon air induction kit. Lowered on KW V1 coilovers which are 3 weeks old. MOT until september 10ish months of TAX. Cobra cat 1 alarm fitted 9 months ago. Insanely full service history, with 1 family owner before me. 4 very legal pirelli p6000 tyres...2 less than 4 months old. has 3 of the common corrado "problems", blower only works on 4, blower cannot be redirected (new control panel needed), sunroof is broken, but i do have the rapir kit for this wheich cost lots of money but ive not had time to even consider fitting. car would also be supplied with a spare dashboard shell as the one in the car has holes from a car kit braket... opinions welcome to help me judge what I should be asking... many thanks chris

cheers fella....few possibles on the cards, couple of interviews early this week....

have just had fitted some KW variant ones to replace some knakered FK's. going over potholes/changes in road texture seems to lead to a knock/bang from the rear shocks....so i guess theyre bottoming out. is this just a kw thing, or have i got them wound too low, or is something wrong? help me please.

...at Voodoo. So if anyone has any questions or queries for the business, please do no pm me or call my mobile..... this includes the 2 16v corrados advertised as breaking. many thanks chris

I think so.... new roof panel from the dealer for a non sunroof Corrado... the gutters would require lead loading.....

if going through your bins, taking pictures of you with a telephoto lens and selling your used under crackers on ebay can be defined as stalking.....

and that is why you are a pervet

having spoken to compomotice i think im going for 16x7's with an et of 35.... unless anyone has a top reason for going to 17x7.5? :D
-
what sort of offset should i go for....between et24 and et50?
-
cheers for the tips chaps.....thinking the 16's are a good compromise....a touch move grip than the 15"s but a reasonable amount of ride quality!
-
ive almost decided on a new set of wheels, i have the option of 16x7 or 7x7.5. can someone please tell me what tyre size i would need for either option, what et for either option and if the 16 is really going to offer noticably more comfortable ride than the 17? love you chris
-
which numbers are those please fella?
-
yesterday the vr was refusing to play..... turning but not sparking properly.....a little wiggle of the leads and for some reason with the fuse box and it started. Im going to replace the leads, sparks, cap and arm.....just slightly concerned about the need to wiggle/push in the relays/fuses.... any tips?
-
glad you had fun fella.
-
No worries fella, good luck!

bottom rad hose.... undoing the ones on the thermostat hosubg will pee most of the water out of the top half of the system though....
-
you should be able to fella....

with the cap off and heater on hot and full blast? VR6s seem to be a bugger for airlocks....
