Yes the early lenses are no more from anywhere in the uk.....Arz tuning only in germany.

Goodyear Eagle F1's are great tyres...i've got 195/50/15 on my G60.....on rails cornering !

I'll lay odds it's the corrado script badge letting water in.......Go into the boot through the back seat when it's raining with a torch......it will be the script badge.

Hi Hillbilly, Great cars and a brilliant forum...Welcome and have fun !

My squeak was the tailgate inside top trim, the one with a slider at each end....thats worth a look at.

The problem is it's only a very thin sheet of metal which isn't protected very well....very common for these to go as rotten as a pear. sortable with a dremel - rust treatment - hammerite.

I Agree with yellowG, I had bad belt slip with the standard vag belt after having a 68mm pulley fitted (037 145 933B....6K 1658 EHO) Yes you need a 6PK 1640 Belt but make sure it's a good make, Gates or Goodyear are the better one's. Also check your dampner/tensioner for condition, part no (037 145 299) especialy the rubber bushes on it.

Yandards' Nugget G60 - gone but not forgotten..
shawshankkid replied to Yandards's topic in Members Gallery
Nice work Yan...i bet that's keeping you busy........will be a great G60 when you have finished with it :notworthy: -
Copper grease/slip isn't the best product for the back of the pads/carriers, over a short period of time it dries hard you get the dreaded squealing back....plastilube is a much better product that doesn't dry out, you can get it from the dealers or various internet places.

Meguiars engine & machine cleaner is available from halfords £6.99 for 1 litre....3 for 2 offer on at the moment. (sorry forgot to put ......engine & machine cleaner)
-
Phil, just spray on and wipe off straight away, no waiting needed and no mess....it's not a messy foam type spray that goes all over the shop....Dissolves oil/grease/grime in seconds, I can't recommend it enough.
-
Just use Meguiars engine & machine cleaner Phil, awesome stuff i promise you...no scrubbing/washing off...a real pleasure to use and no worries about the electrics going tits up because of water....horror stories are plentiful with power washing engines.

I use purple haze on my aqua blue G60, used it since this product came out and would not change. 8)

This is the best Corrado i have ever seen ! it just blows you way....I went to see this car yesterday and to drop him off some headlight protectors... A real credit to you Dave, I know you :luvlove: it and so you should :notworthy: ........Dave helped me with some jobs on my car and i ended up stopping all day, a really great bloke. Cheers Pal. A few i took of it.

djmac56- i get the 280x55 stickers for a silly price because my mate owns a print design shop. A normal print place will charge you between £3.50 & £6.00 for one off designs. The forum stickers i can get for 20p each.....so a pair 40p and whats a 2nd class stamp these days 25p? so 65 pence all in. now thats not bad....like they say... it's not what you know but who you know :thumb right:

I have some already made...all colours..I'd rather be driving.....VR6/G60/16V.... all 280 mm x 55mm..internal...look brilliant...same as my sig.
