  1. Welcome back dude, if i had the spare cash i would have bought it too, hope it is truly a good bargain.
  2. Thats exactly what i mean, basically it will help maintain the power you have and not lose it or as quick depending on conditions, where as going a larger 1 will prob help with increasing the numbers further.
  3. The bottom blue SLC of sukhs, he is on here but not too often.
  4. Agree it would be nice to see some more numbers but its not always about that, basically it will be less heat soaked with more flow through its core and will feel more responsive and slightly quicker but if you put it on the rollers it might not be any more powerful, if you see what i mean. Will feel better even without adding figures.
  5. What about these Porsche fakies last set of wheels
  6. Its got to increase it much more as there is a more direct flow going to it, better low end and more top end performance, end of day its an air to air cooler so the more fresh air you can get to it the better.
  7. I keep dreaming of those high returns
  8. QPE do but i dont think its corrado specific, Heard the MK2 downpipe they do will fit ok. You could go to a custom exhaust maker and get 1 done for £100-£150
  9. I have ran the same as well with no rubbing issues with mates etc, only a very slight on inner arch full lock but how often you drive on full lock? So long as you keep the right offset you will be ok. Do you know what width and ET they will be.
  10. @ thebigjudge You have any pics of when you had them on mate?
  11. Just going to the brembos you will notice a massive difference.
  12. For me i find 0.5 bar useable at this time of year.
  13. Its great how you blow all the myths up kev, but still best not to go more power on the rear still. Well i dont have ABS so i will try mid bend and post my findings.
  14. LMAO @ g60greeny, those yellow recaros would look way cool compared to beige you want next to the red, proper 90's styling 8)
  15. Think i need to get into that scary game some more, braking later and later lol. I bet doing that scares the passengers more than accelerating at full boost and throttle, ie: doing a ton then stomping on the brakes at the last moment with cars in front of you.

    Rocking G60

    As the front mount is solid it will show up and wear the other mounts and the front crossmember bushes more, possible left mount gone or the engine just moves naturally that way now. There is still some movement in the engine and it has to go somewhere else now the front is solid
  17. LMAO @ supercharged, after meeting you i never knew you were that way inclined to know those sort of things lol, you seemed so normal, but its always the normal quiet types that are so deceiving. Prepare for lots of Corrados going missing for a couple of weeks now.
  18. Right then found the thread on Edition 38 regarding the adaptors i was referring to but they are 4 x 100 - 5 x 112. Checked Venom and they only do not do any adaptors to go 5 x 120 so it looks like ben custom jobbies and in the Edition 38 thread it says its Stylehaus who has a contact in Germany who can build them for anything but your looking at £400 a set. Also See here
  19. I hear what your saying with getting rid of it but at the end of the day its a Corrado and i'm pretty certain, almost 100% sure they were actually designed to break at any random moment once all fixed just to keep you on your toes to remind you, you do not drive a normal car. 1 month ago you were sayinghow its cheaper to throw money at the car than suffer depreciation on a newer car chris. As can be read in here "Parents want me to sell" thread Any how hope you suss it all out.
  20. I cant really help too much but mine had a very similar if not the same issue, the relay was dead which is as you say for the ECU. Quite a common problem. Oh and welcome to the forum and what a 1st car to learn in, over this side of the pond (assuming your American) we usually have to wait years to get to these cars, damn insurance.
  21. Seen the adaptors in 4 x 100 - 5 x 120 on edition 38 and they were far from the usual style adaptors you get, they would mount the wheel but i wouldnt like to think i was doing any hard driving on them, i heard somewhere darren @ Gwerkes knows somebody who can make adaptors for anything so try him but i cant see them been cheap. 5 x 100 - 5 x 120 would be easier adaptor wise so if your 4 x 100 convert the hubs to 5 x 100 but again its all down to cost. Darrensphatvr6 has just bought the same wheels and he is going to be putting them on in the summerish time so PM him for any advice. Also the BMW wheels if standard will be staggered.
  22. Just remembered or i think anyway you can use mk2 diesel mounts as an upgrade.
  23. Neither competition or fast roads are solid mounts, personally i would upgrade all three than putting a solid front and standard rears on.
  24. I actually run x3 VT competition mounts and when i say they will rattle your teeth out its more when stationary and idling that it transfers the vibration to the cabin. The fast roads are prob still quite smooth in comparison as they are uprated but prob not by too much to standard.
