I've gotta Mk2 8v as a daily, and it's one of the best things i've ever bought for the Raddo! £1500 would get you a mint Mk2!

No worries mate, Only thing is, you can't really see the sppedo needle at night...not that that matters, I just use the force :wink: Now I'll stop jacking this thread! :oops:

DDi mate, HIGHLY reccomended 8)

Last thing you want is it coming down on your car! Either that, or you'll get squatters! :lol:

Not the best of pics, but this is what I did myself...

Right guys, I need some more help! The Corrado ran out of tax the other day and since I'm havving a 'fiddle' with the engine over Winter and I have the Golf to run around it I don't see any point in re-taxing it for a couple of months. So I've SORNed it, shame really, since I wound up the boost for the last weekend and blew away a Focus RS! But I can't afford ro re-tax and modify it so it's now off the road. Does anyone know of any treatments/waxes I can put on the car to help keep it protected for the Winter months? I've been toying with the idea of a car cover, but want to know if there's anything else I can do to help protect it? Cheers Dave

Looks tidy, can't see anything about MOT though... Try £423.50

Possibly, but why would you want one? It'll be an expensive experiment!

Only thing is, a 65mm pulley reduces your re-build intervals! 65mm = Suicide Pulley :lol:

Broken splitter=Correct lowness!! :D Sweet car! 8)

Like GIXXERUK said, I think it's the internal amp in the headunit, there's probably a dry joint in the connection to the amp.

:norty:

SORNED it :(

At least he's being pretty good about it...now.

Little from column a, little from column b...but your right!!! :lol:

So how did it feel the first time you turned the key and she fired up?

Good to hear it mate! :D It's surprising how much you learn when you get stuck in there! :wink:

Cheers for the comments, :D There was a catch with the indicators/fogs, they're pretty old and have gone misty, I lightly tinted them to match the headlights, but they looked really bad, so I had to keep going till they were black. :oops: I'm gonna get around to fitting late spec lights and then I'll tint them to match...If I keep the tinted look at all that is :wink:

Well they wrote back saying that because it's not a very widely used road, once a year is more than often enough to check it according to national standards. They claim they checked it last in may and it was ok then. I'm gonna write back to them saying that obviously once a year is not enough since a pothole that can dwarf a cd has appeared in a couple of months!! While the car's been off the road, I've been busy on it. I've been sizing up my new intercooler in it, recon I can get it to fit sweet enough with a little fettling, just need to fab up some pipework for it. Also I've been modding the headlights, had mixed reactions so far, what do you guys think about them?

I've got the IHI conversion too, It's a bit expensive, but it gives you some good figues!!! When I had a standard G60 engine with only a cat bypass , I managed to get 208bhp and 230lbft!!

Mine's been doing this ever since I bought it. Seems to work ok off of the alarm though...

Yeah, big ones!!! :lol:

Thanks for that Martin, Yeah, would appreicate it if you could send me those pics, my email is mailto:[email protected] Cheers Dave

I thought it may be that too, So I changed my bonnet sensor, unfortunately still getting alarms. :(

I know this is ANOTHER Toad alarm thread, but I've had a good look through the search... I've had the Ai606 on my car for just over a year now and it's been fine...until recently it randomly goes off for ages and won't stop till I stop it (and usually at 3am!). When turning the ignition on the led flashes 3 times. I know there's a key to the flashes, but I've lost my card with it on, :roll: so.... 1- Could somebody tell me what 3 (and all the others for that matter) flashes mean, and 2- Does anybody have a clue to what could be sending my alarm batty at stupid o clock in the morning? Cheers guys! :D
