Reprogramming a laserline alarm & vw flick key?? (pics)
Ranj replied to sciroccotune's topic in ICE 'n' Secure
has anyone figured out how to program that factory remote to lock and unlock the corrado doors yet? The reason i'm bringing this post back to life is bcause I just bought one those vw remotes off ebay and apparantley the seller says he will be incuding instructions on how to programme the remote to work with certain alarms. any one had any luck with one . cheers. -
well guys finally took the plunge and decided to splash out the big mulla and went for the Bilstein PSS9 coilover kit , I sourced it out from an outfit in California , they were $1200 , have'nt heard much about these C/overs on this forum but a few guys on the canadian forums rave about the PSS9's , any of you guys got these on your C's? Bally I know you recommended the FK's but I had to think about warranty issues , the bilsteins have a lifetime warranty thanks for the input tho mate. Should be gettin the big package arriving next week hopefully , I'll keep you posted on the install .

we know what you drive and what you do!but how old are you??
Ranj replied to vr6storm's topic in General Car Chat
37 will be 38 in november . Yeah Yeah I know getting a bit old for this site and car, well its been a 11 year relationship with the C, can't give her up now she's gonna be a lifer me thinks , untill the kids start fighting over who gets her. I was driving a 85 Escort RS Turbo at the tender age of 21, man that was a sweet car, wish I still had it. -
I just had mine replaced under a dealer safety recall , not bad for a 16 year old car. Had to give the dealer a safety recall print out I found on the intrnet . Oh by the way this was a recall for all N.American sold C's , hopefully you can get yours done from the stealers the same way. Good Luck.

Has any one purchased the FK coilovers that are on Ebay , these are on the german ebay , any info on these would be great, it looks to me that there are two versions for sale , and the price seems very reasonable . the FK coil overs over here are priced at well over 1200.00 canadian $. Thanks

i can see ur point! cheers mate, yeah I lived on the foleshill rd opposite edgewick park for 18years , my folks used to have a grocery store opposite the park. looks like you boys over there are still very into the C's , keep up the good work. Corrados are getting very scarse over here . like I was saying I hav'nt had a car as reliable as my rado, in over 20 years of owning many cars . I 've had it in storage a couple of times over the 11 years I've had the car only during the winter . cheers Ranj. :cheers:

those look the biz , i want , i want . It'll probably cost me an arm and leg to get'em shipped over here though , are you running et15 on the back ? and how about the fronts?
-
G man , this corrado looks like the sort of set up I'm after could you give me some info on wheel sizes ,ET, etc, rolled arches?. Thx mate
-
sorry mate :salute: I mistook your c from another one i saw in the pic gallery. I m sure it had a HL adjuster switch to the left of th steerin wheel. so how are C's holding their price in the UK, the ones over here are fetching upwards to $16,000 cdn. mines worth about 12,000 , not bad considering i paid 14,000 for it 11 years ago.

Ok I was pretty close then!! Theres not too many G60's out here that have'nt been thrashed or totalled. Looks like you've got auto headlight adjusters on your dash , You know of anyone selling one the complete HL adjustin kit. :brickwall:

Nice rado mate , love the exhaust tip, where abouts are the pics taken ? I'm originally from Cov , was trying to makeout the back ground , looks like around hearsall common, go on tell me I'm miles out . I used to live in Foleshill till I was 17 then moved to holbrooks till i was 24. then the big move to vancouver. was the supercharged badge standard on all C's or is it an add on?

New Corrado styling product. Opinions please.
Ranj replied to corradostorm's topic in General Car Chat
nice loking car mate looks like youve got her slammed pretty low, what size of rims are you running, -
be careful mate , if you don't have any experience using a buffing macine you could make quite a mess of the bonnet , the bonnet is the second hardest panel to polish besides the roof, I would practice on the doors first to get used to the polisher. Good luck . Oh by the way what polish were you going to use, I suggest the Farecla G3 it is great and will buff up the paint quite fast. I would cover the windscreen and plastic scuttle panel with old newspaper to stop all the polish from going all over the plastic parts.

Hey Guys , I was reading a post back from december regarding the Miltek cat back system available for the G60 , I was wondering if any one knows if this is still available , I have been looking for a solid system that will last and doesn't get much louder than stock . If it is still available please let me know , I 've got an Oettinger rear box that is on its last legs , seems to be getting louder every day!!

thats right mate decided to skip over the pond about 13yrs ago , couldnt get used to driving the big gas guzzling yank cars though , so stuck to what i know best, vws, I used to have a 1990 16v GTI back in the hey days in Cov, anyway looks like youve put a lot of lovin into your ride , what do think of the fk coilovers , I've still got the original struts up front on mine , I have replaced the oil in the cartridge assy of the strut and this made the car ride like new again .checked out some of the pics from corrado club of de, looks like the 9x16's are quite popular over in germany, its getting that ET number just right that could make the difference between either lovin or hating the decision to go with the 9's. I 'll post some pics next time.

Has anyone tried the KT 4's from keskin with a 9x16's with a ET15? I am looking into purchasing a new set of rims and want something with a deep dish look. I have seen the keskins on a dutch corrado with the same size and it looked awesome. I have stock suspension right now but might go with the coilovers in the future , I've had this car for 11 years without a hitch , just rebuilt the charger last year , with 250,000kms on the original charger. 1990 G60 260,000 kms, Euro frt end , Tornado Red, daily driver for the past 11 years ,
