Excuses Excuses! Winter is almost over - get the coilies on and stop the excuses..... Drew! :wave: :wave: And i'm sure its you always contacting me about meets and shows!!

cant wait!!! :clap:

I clarify the only email address is [email protected] no personal addresses are on the site

like i said it was used as a site so people could stop waiting for questions to be replied during the November-February group buys available on, Ed 38, Corrado forum, club polo, club lupo, a mini forum, some vauxhall forums and some import forums. Mate the only 'beef' you have is with JJ, doing this publically on a forum over and over is getting sad, and probably gtting a lot of people involved who shouldnt be having to answer things.... like myself. Instead of all of this, put a formal letter to JJ or wait for him to get back. But if you say that you dont need a set of wheels now, then surely you cant be expecting the deposit to be paid back?? not normally the way a deposit goes... btw i'm done answering Q's, as it really doesnt have anything to do with any one of these members on this forum nor others... it seems it has been said over and over to you that your real issue is with JJ. I'm sorry if it seems like i'm snapping, because i'm honestly not.. but i dont see how many more people can say the same thing to you..

the site wasnt put up as a company! it was put up as a resource due to the silly amount of hits in the group buy section of this very forum... it just so happens that the guy who could get them in JJ can/has still been getting them in, so his mobile has been left on the site. this isnt his sole job remember, its a service he is providing in his spare time...

isnt the website email address - [email protected]? i should know, i designed the flapping site! which incidently has just gone down to over-shooting its bandwidth - will re host again tonight. btw, i'm not JJ, just a helpful person who wanted to help get some sales for him by plugging the site! only problem with you bad mouthing the site and not the seller is that it makes me look bad, and people on other forums (including ed which you have happily mouthed off on aswell) know me from the site, so makes me look like a plank. if you ordered the wheels through jj's personal email address then this is why it hasnt gone through the company website, so therefor do you not think you have indeed bought them off jj direct?!

Jon you're not allowed to go down that road i told you already! ... But if you must play that game, i'll book the shell into the body shop this month!!

16x9.5r et-21.5 -- 195/40/16 continental

195 45 on the rears on a 9 would be mad! now 165/40's with the rubber being pre stretched!!! (HeHe - Joking!!) :blackeye: just looked looked at the post on edition, the 195/45 arent stupid looking with the proxies - but i have to agree with shakey, those sp9000 in the 215/40's look awesome, great tyre too.. Thats what i'm going for. edit* they're £100 a tyre!! :gag: Or be a baller!! :shocked!:

Much better on the 15's andy!! i'm getting my new bbs' done to the same size! they're over at pureklas tomorrow for a full colour change. you keeping them 8's and 9's i was contemplating 8.5 up front, but liked the way she was on the oz's in an 8. So 8&9's for me! What size tyres have you got on the rears? guessing 194/45 on the front? Seats are v pimp!! i've got some tanktops which would go nicely with them!! love it!! Mark

:cheers: havent even read Dinkus' comment yet!! but quality!!

Is the cage in the Blue one (Dales old one isnt it?) a 51mm? They are great prices - makes me wonder though - is there any point doing a 'show' 6 point cage seeing they do front cages too? or if i really want a 6 point should i just get 'proper' cage? Also we should see how many are up for a group buy before getting in touch - could be a good few people who will want one...

Without sounding too distasful - i think my ol man has found me a set of genuine articles - all depends on if i want to sit in a seat which has seen a hell of a lot of blood! were fitted into a Carrera 4 guy had a nasty accident outside brussels! I dont mind too much as i would naturally get them trimmed! - could smell during summer otherwise!! The cheapo ones are really a case of getting what you pay! but i havent sat in them, so i cant really help on that side - i'm not being a snob buying original - its just if i can get them at a bargain, then its more of an incentive when i come to sell them for whatever reason!

Naaa! dont do it!! :censored: Only because i've just picked up my GT3 dashboard over the weekend - and i'm sorting the seats out next month!! Wanted to be the first corrado with it!! I havent seen amother C with GT3's in them, but i could be wrong.

Ive bought loads from here before - you have nothing to worry about - the postage and quality of the product will be spot on!

Tierod69 on ebay - all new. The wishbones are 15quid buy-now!! Cant go wrong, especially as they have the rubbers in them too! Ended up getting all new suspension rubbers, cv's, boots and some others really good quality - you get to see some of the bigger dubbin names buying things from the chap too. http://search.ebay.co.uk/_W0QQsassZtierod69 Cheers for the comment - i think the ownership of this car has been just as enjoyable! :crazyeyes: Mark

that looks awesome!! :multi: :shocked!: Try plonking that in my nugget!! (please!) Quick question - was getting lower comp pistons - but the chap i was buying them off has gone quiet. Amongst my box of bits and bobs are a spacer. Does anyone know much about these, it terms of what thickness the plate should be with stadard Kr pistons, head etc? Is it a case of placing the spacer on the head and then just mounting the gasket back ontop again? IIRC the spacer is no more than 3mm thick.

haha! cheers chap - late reply i know - but just saw this on the phone - Cant believe you guys set my car up whilst i was just walking around!! :D Anyway - here's the 'What-i'm-doing-this-weekend' Post!! Still need to get Ballys bro to detail the car - but just havent had time! - will try to sort everything before UD's!! Quick comic strip to show whats being done over the weekend! and how i'll be looking most the weekend!!

Jon i've had mine out the whole time for you to pick them up!! They're just in the box - help yourself! naturally i have no holes for mine to go in anymore!!

Jon, speed bump was the matalan entrance in Hertford!! Yay - need one of them- could actually use it every time i get beached!!!! Phil, i've got both front and back US plates - to go with the US spec rear plate holder. just need to put them on!! The front mounts are placed the correct size for the US items!! As, yes, you are right, at the moment those UK plates are ridiculous! But it failed its MOT with the German ones on!! :?

go on, we'll say the name together!

yea!! sure she'd be impressed with that!! problem is she's my daily - the car! and whilst there seems to be loads more space under those wheels, its rubs on everything! thats a new front splitter, but on the corners you'd never tell! Still all half of the fun i guess. Theres a lot to be done over the winter though - not just the engine, but new brakes and bushes all around, and then chances are some new coilies too.

Righty, its been a good while since i've updated this thread so here goes. I'm not too sure why i bother with this whole dub thing sometimes - because nothing has been smooth sailing at all! Finally got wheels back onto the car - just before the winter months start - niice! missed out on the show season with them on! :( - but to be fair, i've had a bigger nightmare with the paint! I'ts the third time its gone in, and has now come out with a lot more paint that it went in with!! I decided to get the front smoothed off, whilst still keeping the bumper lines - i dont know if the other rads are the same, but wanted to try and keep it kinda factory - although to be honest it looks anything but!! :blink: Bally, i havent forgotten about Am bro, just really cant get hold of the paint. May have to ask for some help soon! - also i cant lower it anymore - made a scene in town today, was pivoting on the speedbump! look at the lower skirt on drivers side where door and front wing meets! - dented! ouch! Anyways, let me know what you guys think - good or bad! Oh and i have a new engine set up! K24 turbo and complete RS2 components!! going for a exact setup as that mad brown mk2 on last months pvw - so with the standalone ecu should deliver 340bhp!! - not too sure if its the smartest thing to do, but will soon see!! Cheers, Mark!

haha! just posted in the d90 thread - think Khaki was only available in the states. http://www.corrado-club.com/corrado/speccolor.cfm Absolutely gorgeous colour though, shouldve got it painted in that!

my colour swatch thingy isnt working, Khaki Pearl Effect Paint C6Z only available during '93 - was it available in the uk?
