  1. G60 block with turbo instead of the the S/C.
  2. Another option, never seen a G60T Corrado before. A guy local to me did it in a Mk3 Golf and he loved it.
  3. What size? 450? Here is my two at the moment. Superduke is in bits after some chump decided to try and steal it and wrecked the ignition barrel.
  4. Its the only vehicle that Ive bought brand new and they were doing a promotion where I got £675 of accessories. Most would have gone for the bling, I went for workshop manual, oil, screen and a few other bits and pieces. The screen made a big difference. I did the fork mod after a few months and it made it much more stable in the corners. Tracked it a few times as well and could not fault it even in the rain.
  5. Nice one, best sportsbike Ive ever owned. Induction noise to die for, like a little lambo. Best mod is putting the forks level with the yolks. With standard geometery they tend to fall into corners but doing this make is much more linear. Oh and a nice end can. I looked at loads before going for the Carbon Arrow. Amazing quality and looked the biz. Here a pic of it fitted, it retains the original heat sheild. Thats an evotech tailtidy as well. It was this video that made me want one, 40sec in ohhhh!!!
  6. I should have added. Something near on standard. The £4k max! will be going on the fun car not the everday car or all of it on a nice everday car if I sell the S4. As I said ideally a new style Scirocco. I was impressed how much better it felt to drive than the Mk5 I had. Perfect all rounder.
  7. £16k or £4kish depending if I sell the S4 or keep it. Something fun, 4 seats and not too bad on fuel.
  8. Sold mine last Thr, looked at loads of cars at the weekend and online but I cant find anything I like. Some real nice cars like Mk1 Vr's, M2 Vr's, Rallye etc Even tried a new Scirocco which was brilliant but sadly Im getting offered pennies for the S4 as a trade and no ones interested in buying it privately. I fear Im going to have to buy a nice standardish VR as I keep looking at them. Its only been 5 days!!!!
  9. That looks spot on. Ah sheeet, its only been 5 days and I want another one!!!
  10. Hey min Ive got a spare headlight in the garage that will have one but you'll need to pick it up tomorrow night if your in a hurry as Im off to the states for a week and half on wed morn.

    nice..

    Rotiforms do work http://ridesandstyling.com/database/images/2011/05/vw-corrado-red-rotiform-nue.jpg
  12. Some nice touches there, have to say though the wheels do nothing for me at all.
  13. That'll be three 24v up here now.

    VR6T

    One last pic I took outside the garage. Ive still got some bits left over like a baffled sump etc but I might just holf onto them for now. Already been looking to see if there are any cheap one floating about the area but Ive decided to have a break from them as I hardly used this thing this year apart from the odd day or trip.

    VR6T

    Doubt the new guy will be on here, he was quite young but is a VW tech at the local dealer. I did tell him I want first refusal if he sells. Not sure, thinking of going back to one car. Been eyeing up new Scirocco's trading in the S4 or maybe an Elise. Was even looking at Cerbera's.

    VR6T

    Its gone. Staying local though.

    S4 is for sale as well, Im probably going to run with one car for a while so need something slightly better on fuel. Maybe a 120d or 123d if I can find one I like. I know I'll be back with another Corrado at some point, its inevitable.

    VR6T

    Well looks like its going. Local guy is looking to take it away. I have a few house repairs and unexpected tax to pay off so if there is a replacement it will be something a lot cheaper. Awesome car and glad Ive had one, just need a break I think now.
  19. Ive got Vredstein Cento's and they are not strechted at all (205's). Falkens that were on before were stretched slightly. Depends on tyre make TBH but most of the european makes have less strech.
  20. Ive had almost every one of my last 7-8 cars on a RR, most were VAG and all of them were at or above standard figures for the standard ones. VW do seem to be conservative with there figures.
  21. Syncro gear for sale on here. After wtinessing the haldexed R32 turbo Corrado lanch at Gti it would be nice to have.
  22. CH's for the colour of your car.

    VR6T

    You may have seen that the car is up for sale. In all honesty I put it up to see what interest there was but nothing firm ever came up. Didnt really advertise it that much though. After attending Gti International Im kind of swaying towards a clean near standard car that I can do a little mechanicing on. I love this thing to bits and its ran fault free for thousands of miles but I just feel like I need something else to muck about with. I think seeing Judiths, OSV's and C5 OEM's cars have turned me. If anyone is interested in a swap + cash my way for thier car please get in touch. Would have to be a VR with good standard bodywork.
  24. Fit proper sized wheels then, there is no way round it. Put them back to 8in and fit a 205 tyre front and back to keep the same RR.
