corrado vr6 vs astra gte 16v vs calibra turbo
joebloggsVR69 replied to spike16vgte's topic in General Car Chat
I think it's more because some pikey drove their Calibra into his corrado a couple of days ago! :wink: -
Not really - I got my chains/clutch/flywheel/suspension/brake disks fitted for about £550 last year :) I supplied all the parts though
-
:lol: I saw that about a month ago! I'm guessing Chavs can't spell 'PEACE' :wink:
-
You know there's 2 MFA settings? Setting 1 wipes after each trip, setting 2 records until it maxes out You need to flick the little switch to change MFA modes
-
Ignition barrel problem? UPDATE - got a new switch - :help:
joebloggsVR69 replied to joebloggsVR69's topic in Engine Bay
Sounds very much like it's the switch - my stereo was a bit tempremental if you played with the key Not anymore though :) -
Yeah, I tried to get an agreed value policy with 'em last year and they werent interested, so I went with Flux
-
I'm 28 :wink: Have only been able to compare it to the standard suspension, haven't been in anyone else's C. to find out what their ride is like It handles really well - not much bodyroll when cornering at speed, but then again I can only compare it to the standard setup! They cost be £560 including VAT & delivery last March, in a group buy on E38.
-
Yep, coilovers :) They're actually really good, doesnt feel bone-jarring or anything. I guess if I lowered it to it's max (120mm I think???) then the ride would be unbearable :lol: Some owners prefer to stick on VW caps to be true to the posters! :lol: These wheels were on the MK3 Golf too, and they had VW caps IIRC
-
Anyone watch it last night? (..or the repeat this evening) Was hilarious watching them with their amphibious vehciles :lol:
-
It's on Konigsport Silverline-X Yeah, it's got BBS caps. I think the Storm posters had 'em with VW caps, but they were actually sold with BBS caps :?
-
Here's mine, -50mm at the back, -35mm at the front
-
You can change it yourself, but getting to it's a bit tricky. New ignition switch is ~£25 from VW. Dont buy a crappy GSF one!! You'll need a long thin screwdriver (jewellers type, Halfords, Homebase etc sell them) The screw is a b4stard to get to, so good luck! :) There's a guide here: http://www.the-corrado.net/wiki/index.p ... eplacement

Hmmm.. I'm sure mine had similar symptoms last year - new ignition switch fixed it
-
One of the bulbs might be dead
-
love that colour :)

Tonight at 7pm
-
I managed to get over 50mpg. For about 5 seconds! (Well I cheated, I reset the MFA while coasting down a hill... :wink: :lol:)
-
I had quite the opposite thing happen to me a couple of weeks ago. Was in a petrol station and left my keys in the ignition - the bloody alarm kicked in; total closure and then armed itself while I was outta the car... :oops: :x

joebloggsVR69 replied to Trig's topic in Members Gallery
Nice :) I get about 230 miles to a tank :lol: But then again I drive on busy London roads.. :( -
New car battery needed :wink: I've had this happen to me a couple of times since I've had the car! (also got a conlog system..)
-
BBC2 tomorrow night, isnt it? 7pm IIRC
-
It'll probably invalidate your insurance too - standard wheels with the incorrect size tyres
