sorry mate but my boss was running around like David Bailey and he did'nt snap the engine, i'll take some though and post em up, have got this other one though, zoom in on the rear where the 4Mo badge should be! http://s242.photobucket.com/albums/ff46 ... G_0443.jpg p.s. as you can probably gather my boss is 'slightly' car mad!
-
yep i thought if that supercar with the unpronouncable name uses a couple of them :shock: it would do for me! :D
-
Mr Fusion (haven't heard from in a while), Hersites(just about to happen!) and PeteC. Can't think of any more. Saw PeteC's at ED38, sounded very refined, charger hardly makes any noise at idle, no belt tension issues (uses the standard VW tensioner) think it's making 310hp with 10psi. another Rotrex'd Rado on the way here too in the next month! :D

Ok Will, specially for you and Stan here a few pics my boss took round his house last weekend, was a bit late in the afternoon on sunday so the lights not great plus i'd left the bonnet a bit open where we'd been drooling over the charger! http://s242.photobucket.com/albums/ff46 ...

Hi Will & welcome aboard! p.s. posted the airbox today let me know when it arrives. Alex

The calipers the Leon Cupra R a definitely bigger, my neighbour has a Cupra R and i've compared his Brembo's with mine several times and noticed the difference!
-
Ye Gods! got back with the 4Mo a few hours ago and have still got the biggest grin on my face....bloody thing goes like stink & sticks to the road like glue and she's only running 6psi......so plenty more fun to be had yet! :D
-

800K thats bloody mental! :shock: just about sums up the SE of england though, no wonder people can't get on the housing ladder anymore thats completely nuts!
-
yeah i know a few people around those parts and its pretty 'lively' mate to say the least!
-
well was just trying to keep it quiet whilst i was finalizing the purchase but thats all done now so she's officially mine, just gotta get my arse up to North London (anyone got an AK47 i can borrow for protection?) tomorrow to collect her!
-
well the cats out of the bag, so yep thats my new baby......bit off the asking price (which i though was fair in the 1st place tbh), i'm picking it up saturday & can't bloody well wait! :D ooh he got a nice one stanley :) i won't spoil the suprise though :)[/quote:1abcc] Wasnt priced around £7250 was it????????[/quote:1abcc]
-
looking good Marcus....those brakes look very familiar too! :)
-
ok too late i've bought her!!! :D
-
as the title says really i'm looking at buying a Golf 4Motion in the next 2 weeks (mainly for work) and have noticed there's a few people on here with them too, anyone got any specific points (other than the obvious) to watch out for! Have seen a bit of a buyers guide on the Golf Mk4 forum but not a lot specific to the 4Mo, any input appreciated! :) p.s. i'm keeping the Rado too (we've come to far together to part now)
-
quick thanks Guy! my Silkolene order turned up at work today, thanks for replacing the previous order so quickly (courier's buggered it up in transit not Opie oils i hasten to add), spot on service i'll definitely be back! Alex

think this is the thread you mean:- http://www.the-corrado.net/.archive/forum/viewto ... ap#p680655
-
Mmmmm nice choice, was drooling over those myself before another option :) came along, perhaps Daz could be persuaded to source you a set? as he sells a lot of the KW stuff!
-
so i see, on with the next phase of the plan then! :)
-
here we go again eah!!! i've said it before & i'll say it again 3.8L by next year!!! :) p.s. thought those calipers said 'Prada' for a minute :lol: they do look damn nice though!
-
wonder if you'd still get the benefit if you've got ARB's fitted already?
-
Very nice Pasta Wagon you got there Will, look forward to seeing this in person soon! :) p.s. totally agree with the above post about the Teledials, lovely wheels with great brake clearance too
-
must admit i'm curious to hear some comments on these too as have been thinking about getting a Trimsport rear brace!
-
To be 100% honest Ben i'm not sure, mine were advertised as being for an early Audi TT so i figured anything mentioning the Golf (up to mk4), earlier TT, A3 etc would be ok on a Corrado (working on the theory that a lot of peops go for the stock TT 312 setup so you should be able to use Brembo's that were destined for these models too). Have seen a few sets come up on German e-bay.de so thats well worth a trawl. If it was me i'd set up a few of those e-bay automated searchs for just Brembo 4 pot / or think the German translation is '4 Kolben' plus VW / Audi etc and see what turns up. Watch out you don't end up buying a set of the full size Brembo Grand Turismo's though as they really are big bast**** (the ones the Seat Leon Cupra R uses) can distinguish them from the GT Juniors by a pipe running externally at the bottom of the caliper that seems to link either side of the caliper.
