your good andy Well i didnt think you would get it so quick, this car is worth around 80k there is also a burnt out one in this barn to had offers of 45k as it is. I spent 2 days machine polishing and flatsanding the bonnet and roof, the results were very good. There is also a load of other super cars in the barn to most of them classic aston martins and ferraris. :notworthy: :clap:

V for vendetta maybe, another clue

Ok thought i would test you all as there are some smart people on here. I detailed this car the other day and i had never heard of it or ever seen one, can any of you guess ill post one pic then a few more if you get stuck. Good luck. It was one of the most over engineered cars ive seen in a long while for its age they dont make them like that anymore. :? Crazy dave and memisis 360 are barred from having ago as they know, but proberbly forgot by now.

what about one of these very nice car and unique engine w8 and not badley priced for what you get.
-
im hopefully going detail one of the first in the UK one of my customers went to this day and he has ordered black turbo i think he has parted with 93k :shock: ive seen some reviews on it just got the record back round the ring for the fastest 4 door beating the cadilac cts-v.

Thanks for the negative comments again nothing better to do with your time. Why do people always say corrados are not worth this much isnt this attitude pushing prices down. There worth what people are willing to pay, for example i remember a vr6 supercharged last year went for around 8k good price considering all the work and effort that went in. You didnt hear me say its not worth it, and the vr6 turbo syncro that was on PH i wanted that and i would of paid 9k for it cause i think its worth it. Any fool can go and waste there money and pay a garage to put a turbo on a vr6, try going to look for a g60 like mine, there are a lot of mint vr6s like kips and even his would be worth around the same price even with 100k on the clock because its a honest well looked after car. Anyway had a phone call already someone is coming to look at it, so if it goes ill post my bank balance up for every one to see. And another thing is i dont really want to sell it all the hard work ive put in and it looks mint but its a business decision and needs must. Has anyone ever tried to set up a business in a recession---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------NO i didnt think so then try it and see how hard it is then post a reply.

GTR Test drive [Now with pics on page 8]
drewiee99 replied to Dr Forinor's topic in General Car Chat
Here is me at everyman driving, its a awesome car for the money and the gearbox is immense you dont loose any forward momentum. -
well the G60 is up for sale ive contacted the VW press offic to see if they want it first. Its up for £9k which i know everyone on here will go :cuckoo: but you try and find another and all the spare parts and memrorbilia ive got with it as well i can always come down on the price. :( This is the first hard business decision ive gone from 22k a year to not even £800 month. On the up side ive accquired a MK1 golf in siena red so thats going to be my next project maybe a 20v turbo 300hp with all the accounts i have with tuning companies now ive got the business expect to see wossner pistons bilstien or apex shocks quaife diff ats or compomotive alloys AP or alcon brakes Holsett or turbonetics turbo Emerald managment K1 technologies cranks and rods Zircotec ceramic coating

I was not at inters mate not been to any shows this year just finished stripping down changing most the engine parts for new ones and just put it back together. If it did have to go for the business to survive i would like between 7-8k if i could. The thing is there is not one like that ive seen unless one in a garage somewere and all the memrorbilia i have as well like original reciept,framed marketing posters,original press release,spare parts in boxes switches and indicators etc. If you want to see a over priced car see this. http://www.tomhartley.com/usedcar/Volks ... f-GTI-MK1-£16,450/15267368

The van does not seem to be working at the moment spen 10 hours today cold calling and driving around pattingham,wolverhampton,hagley,broome,averly etc been pressing the buzzer at the gates and trying to explain what detailing is i spotted a rolls phantom,tvr cerrbera, ferrari f430,porsche turbo,aston vantage,bentley flying spur, Its getting hard now and money is slowley running out. It frustraiting because most other detailers are charging more than me and some work ive seen is not that good. On the wheels i used valet pro billberry wheel cleaner, if you have tar spots one of the best products is autosmart tardis spray it on let it soak and rub with a brush or cloth. The slogen is just a bit of fun and people will remember it i hope. I know a famileey of indaian buikders and there slogen was 'youve used the cowboys now try the indians' brilliant.

Ok the big question is how much for a mint g60 namley mine 48k 3 owners i was offered £8k last year but managed to get a job so kept it?
-
Ok just a quick up date got a new caddy van well there could not be anything else really. ill appoligise now if any one take offense at the slogen but its just a play on words. dave and graham have been on my case for a revo kit for it they never miss a oppertunity. :lol:

Hi mate shame about the r32 but these evos are good cars, here is a pick of one i detailed at extreme uk a 450hp one. If you need any work doing i know they are a very well renowed garage used to be rally art.

Ok just a quick update, took the corrado to the weigh bridge today with 1/4 tank of fuel in. 1st without driver 1130kg 2nd with driver 1220kg Thats not to bad but must stop eating biscuits at DG autotech, all crazy dave was interested in was the net weight 90kg :shock: Need to get out on the bike more. Ok so we think roughly its around 210hp so thats 188hp per tonne done with this convertor. http://www.letstorquebhp.com/calculator.asp -
sorry mate didnt want to upset you i know all the hardship you had with the R32 but irony is a great thing,and if it aint broke dont fix it. After looking at the options i would go turbo with the 12v and look for around 300-350hp easy but still keep it nice to drive and loads of torque,and wont cost to much either. Speak to graham at DG autotech and ask him about the cummings turbo project he should know what im on about and you can get some good advice.

Nice seats karl, i found a car for you, whilst sorting through some old pics i found these of the old faithful VF supercharged VR6.
-
hi mate i never went in the end i saw some videos and didnt look to bad,at least the money has gone to a good cause.

Ok thanks to dave and graham at DG autotech my car is running great now ignition timing and fueling all out. As well as the fan packed up so ordered me a revotec one and a set of fan brackets,saved a little weight and some space looks nice and tidy now. After they took my car for a thrashing dave has a program on his apple mac/i phone for measuring 0-60 and hp it uses gps so is pretty acurate. I was amazed when he said it was 0-60 in 6 sec and around 207hp and that was with those 2 biffters in the car :lol: On a down note i ordered some ph snow foam to try out on the car for the business followed instructions you can use it neat but i diluted it 1:2 spray it on let it soak rinsed off but it didnt and stained the paint discolouring it and leaving blemishes on the rubbers and the paint. After closer inspection they bottled it up wrong and was a alkaline TFR and should be diluted 10:1. -
cost me £225 from everyman racing 4 laps in the gtr and 4 laps in the porsche gt3rs i think those were the best choice as the track and the straight was not very long i enjoyed it it was a good day,trouble is they have a load of knobs that go and think they can drive and they cant so have to air on the side of caution if you bin it you pay. Trouble is you just get used to it by the time 4 laps are over and you have to come back in,both cars were rally good to drive.
-
Want a laugh watch this me driving a GTR and it was awesome the quickest and easiest car ive ever driven,i also drove a gt3 rs and there is no way one of those or a lotus evora would keep up they would not be far behind but remember the GTR is around 1700kg its impressive. Enjoy

tonight saw a green storm in bewdley with 80k on (had to have a look) looked pretty tidy.

Yandards' Nugget G60 - gone but not forgotten..
drewiee99 replied to Yandards's topic in Members Gallery
Looks good mate i was tempted to try this but place the chargecooler where the intake pipe for the shortest possible distance, and place the pump where the old intercooler was,like the pic. What intake pipes are those you have are they custom made?
