thanks guys B5VWC is sorting me out with the parts i need :)

how much you asking for them pal?

and are they off of an early or late rado if there is any difference

can you get replacement panels for the corrado i need two new rear arches and two sills can you get these as a pattern part anywhere?

i had a new screen fitted today by screen saver, the screen they fitted came with the two side trims

just had a new windscreen fitted so no more crack bit expensive as i didnt take out glass cover with my insurance :(

in the end cost £160 and some companys try charging me over £200 !!!

fitted my new steering wheel also its 250mm quite small :lol: :lol:

get some pics up need to see this dropped with them rims

yea was on edition,just be scrolling through my photobucket and cam across um,glad i got the g60 now but wish i still had the 16vt engine owed me a fortune lol

well this happened september last year but just found the pics so thought i would post them up,

started life as a aqua blue 2.0 16v drove it for about a month then built myself a 16vt, low comp pisons cams,management,t28 etc etc anyway it looked like this

the day it first started

4miles down the road

and yes this did all happen in a petrolstaion forecort next to the pump!

moved on and got myself a g60 see my rr thread,just though i would show you the old rado :( :(

it isnt in perfect condition by far few chips here and there and i got a small dink in my drivers door :( having it re-sprayed the 1st week of april.

great choice in wheel pal, oh and a very nice colour on the c ;)

:lol: :lol: just realised that,all changed now

while all the brackets were odd decided to sandblast them off and spray them.after all day yesterday putting it all back together went out for a drive and the car overheated slightly,took the thermosat out and tested it it was knackered so went and bought a new one today(utter b*stard to change take all the pas pump out the way etc),replaced that bled the sytsem and again it got a bit to warm again right so decided to change the watre pump but doing this meant that all the s/c had to come off the alternater and the bracket that holds every thing

just finished and fingers crossed it is ok

before sand blasted

painted

naked bay

nearly back together

putting it all back together wasnt that bad it was sat ther cleaning all the oil out off the boost pipes and intercooler that took forever,anyways hopefully back on the road now.

nice project you got going there will keep my eye on your progress ;) good work :)

well finished the s/c yesterday but now the thermostat is stuck closed :(

i have been looking at getting the tan/cream interior out of a corrado from the sates but unsure on weather it will look any good opinions??

thanks all, i have had grey leather in the car before but to me there was to much grey and now i want something that stands out but will also go with the colour of the car its going to be either a deep red or a bisquit colour re-trim after looking at it. I did convert it all to 5*100 re-drilling g60 discs etc,as for the front wheels i am looking at getting bigger dishes for the front to make them 8.5 j.

thanks all picked up my new charger yesterday it's a decent stage 4 port freshly rebuilt and has done 0miles since re-build and got it quite cheap so im happy,goin to get a few samples off colours later for the re-trim will post some pics up shortly

On the subject of a retrim.. I reckon a nice sort of dark or brick sort of red would really stand out in the grey. The old Rallye that PVW did a few years back had something similar (if I remeber correctly..?) and it really worked :)

i was thinking red but using a pair of recaro front seats,was trying to think of what to do with the dash aswell also trim that or get it flocked but again wat colour for the dash lol

thanks mate tbh i wasn't a fan of the bumpers either at first but had an old bumper kicking about and though why not,and was suprised when it worked :)

thought it was about time to stick a few pics up of my car

will get a full spec up of my car tomorrow but for now here are a few pics

currently going trough some slight changes including smooth rear bumper with hidden exhaust,de-locked door handles,new steering wheel,all the engine bay cleaned and painted oem,new charger(tomorrow)sns chip,i trying to decide on a re-trim for the interior that would suit the car any ideas?

will post momre pics up shortly just re-szing them all

opinions welcome good or bad and thanks for looking[*]

does anyone know where i can get hold of a bbm screw charger for my corrado g60,g-werks do hold them in stock is there anywhere else??need one asap!!

thanks mate

i am wanting to convert my g60 front hubs to vr6 5stud hubs is it just a case of using vr6 hubs,calipers and discs?

or do i have to change lower arms etc?

thanks

im having trouble fitting this belt.some people of told me you get rid of the damping tensioner and you use a cambelt tensioner on the other one?the kit i got came with 1 cambelt tensioner,do i get rid of the top damping tensioner or does it stay.thanks in advance

i had the same problem as you are describing,it ended up being ignition timing was slightly out, and the air flow sensor in the intercooler pipe was nackered even though it had been tested 3 times and seemed to be ok changed that and car runs spot on.

i was told that g-werks did them but after phoning them this morning to order it they said they do not stock them anymore!!!

where else can i get this from in the uk without ordering from germany????
