  1. Changed my broken DDI dials for new ones. Found I had no battery power left so couldn't check them. Next step, get a jump start from the old man when he comes down at the weekend.
  2. I think that wins the prize for most double entendres in one post. :norty: :lol:
  3. Yeah, they should be fine with that. The offset is ok too.
  4. No, the centre bore on VW is 57.1, so you'll need spigot rings.
  5. Welcome! I take it you're a fan of the AE86 then?
  6. Welcome! You did well getting a Corrado over the common Golf. Nice wheels too, a bit Mercedes-y but I've never seen those before. Do you know what they are?
  7. You will need: A supercharger with associated pipework and mounting bracket- Rotrex or Vortech Larger injectors (mine were Bosch 315s) Air filter ECU Remap ARP head bolts If your engine is healthy enough, you can get away with just these. Non essential but recommended: Chains and headgasket (if not done recently) Oil cooler Water injection uprated radiator fans Cams (DG Autotech, Schimmel, etc) possibly a new fuel pump If you are going down this road, make sure that your engine is in as good a state as possible before starting, as things will go pop, bang and boom if you stick another 100 or so bhp on top when they've already done 100k miles!
  8. Oh, I know that feeling :)
  9. Ultramarines 6.5/10 I expected more from this, I've been waiting for a Warhammer 40k film for the last 20 years and considering it was written by Dan Abnett who has written some awesome Black Library books, I have to say I was disappointed. Its quite short at 70 mins and the characters feel shallow and don't behave like Space Marines should (ie not zealous or homicidal enough). The combat scenes are reasonable, but being computer animated could do with showing a bit more violence and a bit less of the quick camera cuts. However, while I do understand that they are trying to make it appeal to everyone, in reality its only going to be GW geeks like me who are going to watch it and I know all about the backstory etc and so feel they could have made it more in depth. Let's hope it was more of an experiment to see if the type of film would work and the next will have better characters and a longer, more detailed story. Still worth a watch on a Saturday afternoon.
  10. Well there's a vid of a Mk 2 Golf on youtube with a 2.0 dsg, so I presume so. Can't imagine its too easy tho.
  11. again, not a Golf dash, but Sean_Jaymo fitted an A3 one. http://the-corrado.net/.archive/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=71030&start=119
  12. We tried to get a new league going a few months ago but nothing ever came of it. I'm sure when Forza 4 comes out later in the year another one will start. tbh I rarely play it these days, I prefer PGR4, which doesn't focus on tuning and the perfect line every time and encourages you get lairy in the corners.
  13. N reg blue VR with some (sorry, but they were terrible) aftermarket single rear lights, outside West Norwood recycling tip on Wednesday.
  14. Word up guys and gals, I am after the window control module thingy that sits behind the osr door card and a bump strip for the driver door. Must be in good nick and not bent or faded. I cannot reply straight away as I have limited internets at the moment. Cheers dudes.
  15. About flippin' time. I was getting really bored of hearing Legard read from the timing screens. There's only so much "Vettel from Alonso from Webber from Hamilton" that I can take. At least DC knows what he's talking about and the commentaries might get a bit more technical. I wonder if they'll get a new pundit to go with JH & EJ? If its just those two walking around the pits I can't see it working. Jake blatantly thinks Eddie is a tool and is always having little digs at him (whereas he has his tongue firmly up DC's rear end).
  16. Toy Story 3 - not that great, I think I laughed once. 6.5/10
  17. Looks killer. I'd love to rattle can my car black, but it looks quite a daunting job for a novice and I don't trust myself to do a good enough job. I'd want to get some urban camo action going too!
  18. I love this car! So clean and tidy with lots of subtle details. Beautiful :salute: Have you had it resprayed?
  19. He's in the USA so it will be the passenger side? (on the right if you are sat in the car)
  20. Robin Hood 5/10 nothing new, with some truly risible accents. Got no idea where Russell Crowe thought he came from.
  21. Fave thread: any by corrado_sunderland Best show: didn't make any this year Fave cars: rsngtx's supercharged beastie. From the ashes of my car came this stunner James. campaign resto. Excellent work despite several major setbacks kerrly's nugget USA G60. Best garage: DG
  22. I think you meant sipes, or cuts :D I'd still prefer Snipes on my wheels. :D
  23. The_Dude

    Flocking

    dunno, i saw a camo corrado in germany and it looked fekking cool. why not just repaint your car instead? :lol:
  24. That she does matey! I'm kicking myself for not holding out for a blackberry a few years ago when I bought my C.
  25. They should have never left the zoo imo. Series 2 was ok, but 3 was absolute tripe.
