Hello All, Bit of a stupid one this but have to ask as I aint got a clue, how do you reset the MFA to zero before your about to start a new journey as mine wont reset, I thought if you held in the button for more then a few seconds it would set the trip to zero but no. So can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong here?
-
Hmm.. thats funny when I went in to GSF Reading they quoted that they do not sell any specialist VW tools, looks like a halford trip on the way home to get a bent pair of circlip pliers then. Can anyone tell me the GSF part number for the tool seeing as though they are supposed to sell it??
-
I need to nip up the bolt and hold the tensioner, also what is the webby for snap on tools and is this a UK or US site, plus is the full tool collection avalible via mail order ?
-
Hi All, Has anyone got one of these or know where I can purchase one from? Ideally can you post links and part numbers for one of these please, as I do not really want to have to make one up as I am running out of time to get my car finished. Thanks to all who reply.

Hi Stormseeker, Cheers for that I have printed off the details and once I get the car finished and up and running I will give it a go, Great site another one to add to my list of useful resources. I will post my results once i get the conversion done. Thanks

Hi Guys I can not PM him as there is no option in his posts to do so.

Hi all, :D Sorry to start this thread off again, but I was wondering if (H100VW) are you still doing these Loom upgrade's?? If so how much are they as I would like one off you, what else do I need to do to upgrade my beams or is it just loom and bulbs??, Please mail me the details or post on here. mailto:[email protected] Or if anyone else has done this and according to most posts here its an easy mod, if it is that easy can you post instructions on what to do and what is involved, so I could do this myself? :!: Thanks to all in advance who post.

Hi Guys, I will post a couple of mine but I warn you now its a mess LOL, she is in peices I am taking the supercharger down to John (16VG60) this weekend to get it sorted with a rebuild and stage 4 tune up. I have also just put in a VR6 Clutch to take the extra power, and I have a full set of discs and pads to get bolted on so me work is cut out but thats what you get from a previous owner who did not look after my new found german baby. Unfortunately the pic in my signature is a nicer one than mine and I have a white G60. Give me a couple of days and i will do me best to get a few shots put up here for you all.

:D Hi All/Cheesy, I saw your car listed here: http://www.corrado-database.nl/index.ph ... ado&id=324 and I have fallen in love with the look of the BMW E36 Headlight conversion you done can you post here what you had to do and what mods you carried out as I would love to get this done on my corrado G60 as they look fantastic. Please post pics if you have them, and instructions on what i need to do, unless there a straight fit? be amazed if they were. Thnaks in advance.

:!: Hi All, Can any one tell me where I can get a 68MM G60 G-Ladder pulley from? and how much these cost, please post a link to a website here, I want a good quality one too, thanks.

:) Hi All, Just to let you guys know I got me clutch replaced for a VR6 one, it is almost identicall other than the clutch plate tensioners as they are thicker and look a lot stronger, other than that and including the thrust bearing its the same, the clutch plate is nice and thick too so should last a few years hopefully even with 200+ HP going throught it, I highly recomend that if you are going to replace the clutch on your G60 then fit the VR6 one as the one I took out doe's not look anywhere near as tough as the one that is going in i.e the VR6. Finally if the VR6 produces 190BHP in standard configuration so naturally you would expect this clutch to be better than the G60 in standard form. BR F

:-P Thanks Toby, I spoke to GSF and they also confirmed that the VR6 is a straight fit so I have asked them for one, luckily for me they supplied me the wrong one to begin with by accident :lol: so I had to get this changed anyway, you were also right it is a cheaper one than the G60 unit. I can't thank you lot enough, this forum is such a valuble resourse of information.

:!: Hi Guys, Thanks for your input so far, I am wondering if anyone can confirm that the VR6 clutch fits straight onto the G60 Lightened flywheel if so i will go for the VR6 one if this is a better clutch. I found ridgeway and they quote a price of £80 for a new lightened flywheel replacement so I have left a voicemail for them to give me a call. If anyone can let me know if the VR6 will fit it would be much appreciated. Doe's anyone also know if the main crankcase oil seal behind the flywheel is common to go as i might replace this too as I am in there at the moment. Again thanks to all who reply to this thread. BR Roger.

:!: Hi All, I have my Corrado G60 J-Reg appart at present and I am replacing the Clutch due to previous owner neglection, and I have some question's (1) Is it worth taking off the flywheel to get this lightened and balanced ? (2) If so where can I get this done (I live in Basingstoke)?, (3) What's the benefit of doing this ? (4) And what sort of pricing am I looking at ? (5) One other thing, what is the maximum power the standard G60 clutch can take? Message to John 8/16VG60 cant remember which alias you were, if you still active on here can you give me your number as I would like to speak to you regarding getting my charger rebuilt and ported and chipped. You might remember me as you helped me out when I bought some lowering springs for me G60 and I gave some beers for doing so, A lot has been happening so I have not been around for while so please post your details to me hotmail account (mailto:[email protected]) if they have not changed then just let me know on here as I still have your old number. Thanks again to all who reply to this thread.

:D 8) Hi All, Just to let you know that John done a superb job on my car, getting the stuts off was easy and the fronts came apart as expected, we still had a little trouble from the spacers off the rear struts however, but the main man got them off for me and we managed to sit the corrado a lot lower than before. A big thank you to John for his precious time and hard work, and also for taking me out for a spin in his modded corrado (FF I might add). Also A big thank you for all your support with this thread. Respect is due, get yourselves down and see John great chap and knows whats he is doing. Happy Modding!! :D
