  1. does anyone know if the front seats from a passat 91-95 will fit straight into the corrado?? thanx in advance.
  2. just needs a "hovis" score as an accompanying background track, nice read to start my day off, :clap:
  3. them blockers sound good to me but to be honest i would drain the lot, youre gonna have to bleed it anyway, if youre really wanting to save the fluid then put a bottle under each one :grin:
  4. thats how it should sit :)
  5. yes the pressure does increase the boiling temp but also the antifreeze does lower the freezing temp and as it has colligative properties it does also raise the boiling temp significantly :eek: not contradicting or anything, just saying :gag:
  6. i done it relatively easily with the dash in, just remember the bulkhead bolts 8)
  7. damn ive had this happen too me, went down the breakers and whipped off a blue one and that sorted it, hope thats the problem, whats up with the fan, wd40 :shrug: or is it just shagged. oh yeah wayne mines fully in primer at mo and for some unknown reason im sorting the interior out. i think youve inspired me :nuts:
  8. with the pipe being that length and you not being able to find the other end, id guess it was venting to the atmosphere
  9. as previously mentioned, undo the two crosshead bolts and jiggle with a bit of upward force, its held secure by a mild barb into the rubber grommet
  10. wooo its a prob, remember the flex in the engine under acceleration, have you the clearance to maybe cut a small section off the cam cover? i dont think you can file enough off the master cyl.
  11. pop round when this is running, im dying to see it :clap:
  12. looking good, funny ive painting mine and ive done the front panel blue as well, look forward to seeing more of this.....good luck with it :clap:
  13. many moons ago i had a strada abarth and the same thing happened and it was the linkage come off(age related), again on a HFturbo i lost gears and it was the linkage and b4 these cars i had a alfa 1.7 sprint veloce and yes it happened on that as well,the prior answer to mine reminded me of this but as it was a long time ago i would of thought fiat would've addressed this prob...this was the reason i went to the Karmann shed....
  14. got a real comfy standard interior im willing to sacrifice comfort for a swap....lol :lol:
  15. i have a loom right next to me,gonna brave the cold in a bit and fit it, after a brew :morning:

    Body Mods

    you can get them in uk,its either eurotech or tuningwurkes (croydon ) that stock them,was a couple of years ago when i was looking at them(these ones also blank the keyhole for boot), meaning you would have to utilise a solenoid if you wanted to retain use of the boot,this was why i didnt fit it as i have delocked the c and wanted an entry if the battery went flat, i now know that the central locking overrides the key at the rear anyway, when this weather allows soon,i am gonna fit one and solenoid the boot, left black they look crap but with the right lights and coded they can look the bizz.............hope this helps n gd luck :g60:
  20. never had any hassle from a type r driver yet :nono: they respect the c and allow a wide berth :salute: the c salutes back,squats the rear, lifts the tail and acknowledges its hierarchy in the car class system. the above is aimed towards integra r drivers,the civics i dont class as cars :censored: come to think of it! noone has troubled the c for a while................. might have something to do with it being in a few shades of different primer and looking like its leapt off the scrapyard(sort of unintended rat :norty: -look),hey ive cracked it,if you want to beat them so much, then intimidate them with a car that looks like its been built by marilyn manson. for the record: the c was undergoing remedial treatment(charger)but now is undergoing a full makeover which time allowing should be done by april,but ugly as it is I cant resist driving it. :luvlove:
  21. thanks for your quick response :grin: def worth it and damn did you get lucky with them rims............look forward to more updates from down under! :sunny:
