Banana Man

Dan yes my car was there I was on the second row of cars spent most of the day with the bonnet up my xcar was parked directly behind another yellow c with a bad case of paint fade! Premiers car was for sale and someone actually bought it at the show but I cant for the life of me remember who it was :shock:

Henny, I can sort you with the 3.5 bar fpr if you haven't already got 1 I can do them for £45 inc postage if your interestedHenny,

I saw your motor dan it looks sweet mate very clean indeed puts mine to shame :D

Come on then who's up for a corrado forrum thrash up santa pod then. It's been a while since I ve been up there it's always a good laugh even if you dont run your car up there I ve had a few more bits done to the car since the last visit so I shoukld be seeing some better times than last time.

Ok jim so shall we say aim fooctober the 5th as hopefully the weather will still be reasonable I'll start a new thread onm this subject as it's got nothing to do with the natinal day

and some more!

I almost forgot I took some piccies as well :D

Yeah I loved it I would be keen on doing but dont really fancy going through what he had to to get it in his allergic reaction to the plastic welding sounded nasty. If I were to get it done I would pay someone else to do the work as I would probably cock it up big time :D Jim we'll have to arrange that trip down to santa pod the likely dates are 5th,19th and 26th of october and the last date this year being 2nd of november but it's probably going to be really shitty weather as usual in nov so either or all dates in oct sounds good to me :D

I thought it was a brilliant day nice to see all the lads off the forum ( 2cc, supercharged,andyvr6, majik, mark16v,endor71, jim16v, stevemac, guy I'm sure I'm missing people out here :D The thing that had me drewling at the mouth was the guy that had just finished fitting the TT dash in the corrado it looked superb and only took him a week ba*tard :D

HEHE not unless your as blind as a bat :D

Toddington services is on the M1 at junction 11 or just after should I say I will be the guy wearing the G werks t shirt should be able to spot me as I will be the only one wearing one :D see you all there should be a good day

Hehe nimbus grey then daz :D split rims nice!! :D

I get between 26-30 in the week town driving and had upto 36-37mpg on a gentle long run ie not ragging the tit's off it :D

Nice one chris the handles do suit the corrado very well!! See you Sunday :D

Alright chris yeah they're are quite a few threads on this but as this one is the most popular I thought I would post on here!! I'll buy you breakfast if you get the beers in at lunch :D LOL

Good lad!!! :D So who else is meeting me at Toddington services on sunday then?

I got my G60 rad for £70 from guildford rads think the G60 with aircon is the same as the VR one ithough sn't it which are slightly dearer theres one on ebay at the mo going for something like £40

I prefer the alll black but then again I'm biased coz I have done the all black with mine. I haven't had any problems with mot's or anything with them being black I think as long as they let a reasonable amount of light when on and shine the same colour as they're meant to be ie: indicators= amber and stop/tail= red then there is not going to be an issue with the legallity of them and if a driver hits you and claims that they couldn't see you then they shouldn't be on the road as a bright yellow reflection off your number plate should be enough for someone to spot when driving at night!!! These are just mho's

I ve had this one DTM after a garage welded in a new battery tray for me he had attatched the the negative cable on the battery ok but just behind the battery the cable has a ring terminal that joins it to the chassis and he hadn't done that up properly which caused my car to do some really funny things, one being cutting out at really odd times check that this cable is nice and secure across the length of it and also check that the main positve cable is also secure as that could cause your problem as well if it doesn't have a great contact

Definately isn't a powerflow pipe I would have said that it was a scorpion as it looks exactly the same as the one I had on my mk2 golf but it did have the inscription etched into the top ends of the pipes so maybe it isn't could be a peco s1 exhaust as they make a dtm they put they're logo on the bottom of the box cant really see the bottom from the picture though

I thought the official launch colour was nugget yellow or was that just the launch press photo for the G60???????

Mark I'm kinda feeling the azevs a's right now although bbs's are nice and those stil auto's aren't bad either just wondering how muc paul's mate wanted for the azevs he was talking about thats all

Yeah I ve had a few bits and pieces done under the bonnet Markos though I dont think it's as quick as it wa sdue to a tuner wont mention names again but he knows who he is needs to be setup on the rollers after I ve got the itercooler fitted then it will be on top form once again. Shall we say meet at those services again at 11am and leave in convoy again and this time we should get it right in the direction we are going in LOLright hand lane cant go wrong :D

CorradoVR6-n.o.s, How much does your mate want for them and do they have good tyres on I might be persuaded if they're in good nick

Just to follow up jims directions its just off of junction 12 of the M40 a few of us usually meet at the services at junction 11 an hour or so before the AGM just to have a chat and whatever and leave for the EGM in convoy. At the AGM earlier on this year 20+ of us met there and then proceeded on to the heritage museum in convoy. Shame the bloke a couple of cars in front of me decided to take us the wrong way up the M40 I was just following until it dawned on me that we were going the wrong way so the five of us that went the wrong way ended up having a very fast 12mile detour at times we were doing speeds in excess of 145mph to try and catch up with the others! what a laugh do you remember that mark16v LOL
