I would get your vr6 bored out to 3.1L, then fit a turbo, then fit a nitrous kit

Now that would be a serious machine

The calibra sideskirts were just a cheaper way of making my car look better, they were only £70 from the breakers, my only quible with them is that they would probably look better with a different front under bumper spoiler

the colour code is LC5Z, could be helios blue

I keep on meaning to find out the real name of the colour, it is a pearl though, it looks purple when the sun is on it, If I provide the colour code do you think any of you will be able to tell me the colour?

Will be up for sale soon when I find the right black g60

Spec:

90 corrado 16v

reiger eyebrow/grill spioler

calibra sideskirts

half tinted rear lights

colour coded rear number plate surround

17" stilauto racings

lowererd 60mm

k-star ignition timing

supersprint exhaust system

k&n pannel filter

Heres a few pics of my pride and joy

The reason why i ask is because i've been looking for a good (black) g60 for a while and i'm expecting to pay around 3k and then spending around a grand on the engine (rebuild, chip, pulley)

So that makes a total of around 4k

So would it be cheaper to supercharge my 16v instead

Does anyone know how much it would cost to supercharge a 16v?

And what would be the advantages over a normal g60?

where abouts in guildford is it?

Look at this site:

How would I go about finding a biger intercooler?

Is it as simple as going down the scrap yard and finding a big one then swaping it

Or is there a bit more to it?

No, there quite similar though, and they do look quite good, are they definatly for the corrado? I cant read the website!

Have you any pictures of them on a corrado?

found them but there doesnt appear to be any dealers in the uk

Cool, where do I get it from?

The vw figures say 6.3s

Also some magazines have tested to 6.3s, take a look at this page

http://www.coruscant.dsl.pipex.com/corr ... rmance.htm

Indeed... I was wary of this when I saw it posted but you guys seem like a sensible bunch :)

 

I wouldn't expect a Corrado to keep up in a straight line against something like a Calibra Turbo, but the Corrado was never about that... handling is its niche :)

 

*edit*

 

Looking at the Specs, I think the Corrado VR6 would stomp a Calibra V6.. but the Calibra Turbo looks a bit crazy with a 0-60 of 6.4 seconds.. I guess we'd have to be talking to the supercharged VR6 owners to even get close :)

 

And just so you know, I don't want this to turn into an interforum war.. thats definately not the intention of us lot!! :)

The standard 0-60 time on a vr6 is 6.3s

So they have a separate oven then?

Does any one know of a kit?

A spray booth??

Whats that?

Is it a big oven?

Not sure it's available to buy cause it is custom made

It is a modified reiger rs4 bumper

VR6 Rear axel Job done (i would think)

 

fronts!! late g60 with face lift may be but the shafts may be different

I thought all g60s were 4 stud (including late ones), am I wrong?

Is it a big job to convert a g60 to take 5 stud wheels?

Is there a hub conversion kit you can buy or something?

You can get coilovers for under £400

They are raceland coilovers and cost £350, availabel from

http://www.racelanduk.com/

Apparentely there are mixed fellings towards them though, some good, some bad

If I were you i'd go for some supersport coilovers, i've heard you can get a set for around £420, cant remember where from, but there advertised in pvw mag
