Lippy

hello...

Happy New Year! Travelling over Xmas and my wipers gave up the ghost. Looking at the wiper motor and trailing arm the arm has come off at the top where it joins the horizontal wiper bar. Apparantly there is a retaining clip which has come off resulting in the arm disconnecting with every swipe. The nice AA man (it was pissing down and had to travel 2 hours) jury rigged it back together with some wire which has lasted me over Xmas. I do need a new part, can anyone supply me with part numbers/pics and also if anyone has any parts spare that I could use that would be great. Will post pic if required. Cheers for the help guys, Ta Andrew

spotted a silver 16v on a private plate in wilmslow yesterday also a blue vr in didbury the other day! Hello!

Fripper, did you build you 16vg60 yourself? what engine did you start with?

wonder if you could unhook the 4x4 like Phat did at Stealth and drop it on Vinces rollers!

ai I would go for a phateon W12 too

yup I hate them alright, you were right to ditch them disgusting shiny wheels. I can't believe someone bought them off you, or did you have to pay them? :shock: ;)

some mods to report on VDO guages milltek exhaust cheapo gear knob pics to follow!...

what type of rims are they :oops:

Henny, is it running properly yet or are you still tinkering (you have a PM BTW ;))

i like those merc rims, can you remove the merc badge on them???

you wheels using spacers mate, really feeling the stance! congrats! the rear lights are important as it is what people see when you hoon past them :D

Jay - coz you've got stretched rubber over your rims is that why you have lowered the pressure? or is it true for any 205/40/17 rubber? I think I run 32 psi all round, didn't want any bumps to damage the rim of my wheels so that why I dont go lower...? am I barking up the wrong tree?

yeah I spoke to Henny about them - they sound impressive! read bits n bobs about the 16vg60 on BBM site, would be soooo tempted next year - the missus has just passed her test therefore will have an econmical way of driving places leaving my C for the fun times! will you be offering a "drive in drive out" service? as I am a car loser!

how you getting on with the BBM stuff Darren... anybody come in for a 16vG60 install? :D

it will fly and do wheelies :D hungover in work, sorry :(

think someone selling in parts for sale section....

brilliant!

bringing gifts of gold, frankinsense (sp?), mur (sp?) and heated/electric rainbow recaros!

cheers TBH i aint got a budget, just a few dreams along with a car change sometime next year... who knows. Out of interest, what width are those Borbets? 7, 8, 9?? Any issues with rubbing? Andrew

is this the earliest Corrado known to exist? Merry Xmas! everyone!

scarlett - whatkinda budget u planning 4? (if u dont mind the question) whereu sourcing bits from? i have been lookin at this but struggling to find info on engines etc?? diff in work ;) :D !

hrmm not seen any blue j platers for a bit I live just off the A34 in Wilmslow, but with a girlfriend who enjoys making me taxi around the place ;) I'll keep an eye and ear out m8
