I saw a video on google with some dude making his windows go up with a switchblade on his corrado..
-
Sweet!! Just bought one! Had looked at these on ebay before but wasnt sure....
-
I have new passat handles and mechs... will I still need a little furky touch on them?? Darren, the ford was crazy... I never knew that Roger did the paint for pro sign... their bus is amazing.
-
Yeah, thats arse. I phoned VW today and am getting the rad on wednesday! I'm blaming G-werks for my rad. I reckon those swines took the vr out for a caining while I was at the beach.... the bonnet was a little warm when I got back... hmmmm..

I took it to RW Masters in Littlehampton. Saw that they'd done a good job on Dals G-wagon pimp passat, so let them do the work. They seem like they'll take on absolutely anything. When I said what I wanted doing to the arches, there was no 'umming and ahhing', he just said yes. I had all 4 arches rolled and flared, front wings and bonnet resprayed, rear arches are resprayed and blended into the rear 1/4's, he sorted the rust on the drivers door sill, and colour coded a pair of delocked handles, all for £600.

I sense a hint of sarcasm! Yeah, one whole long week without it.. hehe.. I feel for you mate, but not long til yours is popping flames!! Furkz, looks black there, but when I picked it from the bodyshop it was really blue. I thought thy'd painted it the wrong colour at first.... Paul, it's gonna be a whole different car next time you drive it!!

Have ordered a VW rad. Will be in Wednesday. What do we recon the chances of a refund are from GSF??? I still have the reciept. This shouldnt happen to a rad that's only 10 months old after 5,000 miles. And Jim, yeah the car was clean as I was on my way home after picking it up from the bodyshop!! (see my members gallery thread)

New coilovers will be going on this week hopefully (or maybe next) so a suitable slam is in order now that my tyres aren't getting cut to shreds anymore!! I will get better pics once I've fitted a new rad and can actually drive the car.
-
So I picked the car up from the bodyshop on Saturday........ Mmmmmmm. I asked to have the arches rolled and flared slightly. They flared them a little more than I wanted but I love them!! They still look standard, but have extra beef. Had the bonnet painted at the same time. Well pleased. Pics coming.
-
Chris I think I paid £180 for the wishbones.
-
Yeah, these are the best rads in the world. 10 months old. resulting in...
-
Heh, yeah, I was making full use of the G-Werks car delivery service!! trig, the bushes I think came to £130.. but then there was the CF discount ontop... I forget what Darren did them for in the end.
-
I heard that Marshall ran a 15.7 in his turbo'd G40 when he normally runs in the low 14's... The strong headwind seems to affect the liitle polo quite alot!

My council garage got broken into... again.

Something heavy? I was thinking about a cross bow at the back of the garage facing the door!!! Just make sure you duck when you open it!!! Very doubtful on the ebay thing... wheels can be run in as scrap. Easy money. Dont need to find a buyer. I'm sure that they'll get 20 quid for 5 alloys. -
new stuff ready to go on in the next couple of weeks!! VAG top mounts front and rear Powerflex front bush kit VAG front wishbones Weitec Hicon TX fully adjustable coilovers. Just got to order some VAG rear beam mounts and all will be complete!! Oh yeah, I have an Eibach front upper strutbrace to go on too! Thanks to the G of Werks for supplying the bushes and coilies.

hmmmm, I was going to move my G40 to the garage while it's broken..... It will just have to stay on the drive now. Coulda been worse. They could've smashed up everything that they didnt want to steal. 4stud, I dont think it's 'little tw@ts'... The first time they got in I had 18 hot water cylinders, and a pile of copper up to my chest stolen. Would need a good couple of blokes to shift all of it, and a pretty big van!! -

I'll be giving the garage back next week once I've brought all the shit in it back to the house. Thats why I was up there today. Quite glad that they never took the G40 BBS that I have in there. Need to start ebaying stuff. -
Last time it was just before Christmas. The bastards got away with over £1000 worth of scrap copper. So I put some great big Master Locks on it. The pikeys left it alone for 4 months and then done it over again last week. Stilsons will break pretty much anything they can get their jaws round. This time I had no scrap. I didnt think they'd nicked anything until I went up there again today. Last week I thought there was an empty space where something used to be, but I just thought I was being paranoid. Nope. 4 VR6 speedlines, and 1 VW teardrop stolen. To$$ers.
