  1. Looks awesome in there mate, nice one! How did you find the drive?
  2. I've only experienced one rado with Supersport coilovers, but would definitely recommend you avoid them! Every time a question similar to this one is asked, the same answer is given - you get what you pay for. Suspension is such an important factor in how a car feels to drive, it's really not worth doing it on the cheap. If you've got no interest in changing ride height, and you're not into track days etc then i'd say you'd be better off going for the best shock/sprinf set up you can afford, and while you're at it replace all bushes/mounts.
  3. The door cards won't be a straight swap assuming the interior from the 2.016v is the later version (window switches on the door pods rather than the door cards) - the seats will swap straight over though.

  5. A goldy type colour one drove past me earlier, didn't know what it was until I read this thread! :lol: It had masses of road presence, awesome looking car - like a 350Zx but much better!
  6. The benefit I noticed when getting rid of the boost return was the charger was noticeably cooler due to the lack of hot air being blown back through, but I couldn't hack the noise so stuck it back on :lol:
  7. Hi mate, sounds like the light might have been unplugged due to it staying on, it might be worth removing it to see if its plugged in? It will pop out easily if you prize it out with a screwdriver or something.
  8. That sounds like a complete nightmare mate :( Once you've got that far into it there seems like no option than to keep going, although easier said than done! If the engine is really that troublesome maybe ditching it and sticking a 20vt in there would be worthwhile?
  9. :( Has the charger ever been serviced mate?
  10. Might be worth ringing Jez at RKE dude, he's got a beast of a G60 engine for sale, and everything you'll need (including advice on how to install!) viewtopic.php?f=13&t=79862
  11. Out of interest mate, where did you take it and how have you found them/their work?
  12. viewtopic.php?p=923749#p923749 :D :lol:
  13. If you like your Cider, next time you're down try the Rattler, it's a killer :nuts:
  14. I thought this year seemed a bit better than the last few, although I expect the weather helped the atmosphere! I think they've given up trying to pass it off as a VW show and now just call it a 'modified car show' - Plymouth Volksfest seems to attract most of the aircooled lot so that was the nail in the coffin really! I didn't see your car around though mate, I take it you didn't bother with the show and shine?
  15. New members need their first 2 posts approved too dude :tongue:
  16. My old ABP on 15" OZ Turbos My old 8v on Estorils And my last rado, standard car, standard wheels, standard ride height, looks great though IMO - I must be getting old! They just handle/drive soooo much better with 15s on!
  17. That takes some balls! Looking good! 8)
  18. Being able to use a mechanic that owns a Corrado and has an interest in them, is pretty much worth it's weight in Gold tbh :grin:
  19. That looks like a really decent example mate, and in a nice colour! Nice one 8)
  20. Sounds like a fecking good idea tbh, shame im so far down here otherwise i'd be WELL up for that! Skinnymans silver valver looks to be a good base, especially as its a non sunroof model! ..or were you thinking of doing it to a Calibra or something? :nuts:
  21. I'd add an oil cooler to that list too!
