I've just been out to the shops to get something for dinner and this is STILL going on?!?!
-
LOL - That's exactly what I was thinking! :sleeping:
-
They wont look dodgy, they look OE. But next to an original one it might be noticeable. Just get on and do it!
-
Only way round that is to replace them both then really... ;)
-
Dude, the point is they look hadly any different, and certainly not leftfield enough to get the camera out!
-
AAAHAHAHAAHAHAA.. That's brilliant! :lol:
-
I think it's all about both... But I take Jay's point - A curve can be consistently high but often ignored over 'peak torque figures'. Car A might have a peak torque of 200 lb/ft spread nice and high along the rev range and Car B might have a torque curve that suddenly shoots up within a short rev range to attain a peak of 210 lb/ft. I'd rather have Car A!

I'll let you know on Sunday.. :) Mine is being converted as we speak so I can't give you a first had opinion on how it's different TBH. Kev is the man to speak to, he's had OBD2 for a few months now and is still loving it AFAIK. From what Kev has told me I will be expecting my torque curve to peak lower down the rev range which is good. Also I know OBD2 has much less tendency to stall and is more economical. Like you say 2.8 OBD2's put out about 190 so I am hoping for a bit more power than standard as well. Basically it is more modern way of engine management and therefore better! Parts required are... OBD2, TB MAF Inlet manifold Engine Loom (Complete!) & Harness Lambda Probe Key, coil read & immob. transponder box ECU The big cost in doing it is the labour though! :) Check P34 on the Supercharged VR6 Thread. And have a look t these... http://the-corrado.net/.archive/forum/viewtopic.php?t=33529& http://the-corrado.net/.archive/forum/viewtopic.php?t=20801&

pip, you are the king of smileys! :) I don't think you'll be copying anyone! Loads of us have done it now, does look one helluva lot better IMO.
-
No it was after the reset that I got problems, I think I disconnected the battery wrong and sent a surge into the ECU or summet. There is a guide somewhere on how to do basic settings but whoever you take it to for the VAG-COM should be able to help.
-
If you've already been driving it around, no. As Supercharged says though - you should get it hooked up to a VAG-COM to run basic settings.
-
CharlieHorse, that is VERY nice indeed, suits your C perfectly, nice one. :)
-
Yep leave it as it is mate. Need to be careful with resets, it was whilst doing mine that I broke my ECU. :(
-
Sweat, really sweat! ;) The rims are sweat too! ;) :lol:
-
LOL That could be a TV ad for Koni! 'Even the warden thinks you need Koni's' :lol:

Hammerite Smooth is the stuff to use ben. I tried marker pen first and it looked more purple than black! Not a great example but, http://www.the-corrado.net/.archive/forum/download.php?id=24185

bigpants baby, (again!). He was there for me in my time of need like a flash! Supplied me with a replacement engine loom (for free!) and got it couriered up to Stealth for me. Top bloke to deal with. :thumbleft:
-
I searched for you! Not really what you're looking for as they aren't original seats... Clicky
-
Ah ok, tan isn't factory so you're looking for retrim pictures. IIRC hamster look-a-like (doug?) had a tan interior with his DB9 dash. search for 'Richard Hammond' for pics of his V5 C.. ;)
-
Yeah. good idea. That bottom pic is prime for chopping would make a great sig pic. Nice pictures by the way, very Low & Phat! :lol:
-
I'd like to see a side on picture as well. I really like the way you're trying somehting a bit different but i'm undecided on the speedies. I reckon they'd look a lot better in the flesh but I can't help but think they just look a bit dirty, sorry. :( Look forward to some wider shots :) And let's face it it is a lovely car anyway!
-
Hello. That sounds like a bit of a bugger mate... :(
-
Could be your spring sticking in the spring plate when you turn then it suddenly winding round and clunking.
-
Oooh nice shiny new bits! How much did the front bushes set you back?
