Calipers from BiggRed and my running gear refurb
jimmyvwjunkie replied to pete_griff's topic in Drivetrain
:shock: wow looks great. i got my calipers and holders redone by biggred but with a silver sort of paint that is also resistant to brake fluid. there much tidier. but yours looks way better in black. great job on the whole thing. 10/10 -

hey guys got a problems when i put the car heating on only cool air comes out. even when the heater setting are at max heat. anyone know why??? also there seems to be no air coming out the top vents that hit the window to stop it steaming up. i can hear the air trying to reach there but sounds as though theres a blockage or vents closed, anyone know faults with the early heater system of a 1991 corrado 16v. my heed is sare with the problemo. :mad2:

might be starter or coil. electrics tend to age in the negative when they are sitting not being used. check for any broken connection. like your spark plug leads.

by phil naxos on 05.12.2008, 17:54 Hi, How easy is it to powder coat the axle? certainly when you see your car on the ramp at the MOT station it looks a rust bucket under there. I like your paintwork someone has taken care of it. Did you manage to keep the original wheels? :clap: hi phil i get it done at a carbon fibre and powder coating workshop as my mate works there. its actually cheaper than the other paint protection processes. and its chip resistant. cheers for the positive feedback
-
cheers folks for the feedback. no need to change things then. apart from the axles getting powder coated,and i also put new calipers on all round, new discs, and braided brake hoses. any suggestions on the engine guys???? as its only a 1.8 16v
