24V Renshaw

Oh ar5e. Yes that day! :( Still I can put a telly in the garage! :) I will be in Wing mate where my folks live, you are welcome to pop up in the morning. Jay

erm Somerset could be a problem! :) I would say about the same sort of money £3K. Jay

Dave it looks like you might be in luck. I will now (if all goes to plan) be down the weekend after next (10th) just north of Aylesbury doing some work on a Rado, so if you want to pop up for a VAG-COM scan you are welcome to come over for a Corrado mini meet :) Jay

You have PM

Should I run for Government :) Jay

If the tuners did it how I do it, it would be a lot more than £3k ;) Jay

Yeah I remember that last year. You can hear Nick say "160.. OFF THE CLOCK" then he tries to focus on the speedo and you can just see it past the end of the dial. Will capture it off the camera as soon as I get home. Jay

Won't be down your way for a while I don't think but I am happy to do a scan when I am down your way. Jay

LOL - Well I know they don't like big Number 11's on their tarmac. They charge you £100 to clean it up :) Jay

Yep no problem. Jay

I am sure we can work something out, I do like jaffa cakes. :) Jay

I am based near manchester, but I am willing to travel and my folks live down in Bedfordshire :) 24v Conversion would be £3K and it would take as long as it took :) Jay

Nah sorry don't have the facilities :) Jay

Right I am back from Worthersee and skint! :) So does anyone need any work doing on their cars. I will do anything from simple maintenance, to stereo installs, to dash conversions. Let me know if you want something doing cheaper than at a tuners. Jay

I have not had chance to pull it off the video camera yet. Will do it tonight. To be honest its not the best video as my mate was struggling to zoom in on the clocks! ;) Jay

Keep us posted.... Jay

I am not at home till tomorrow. Will put it up asap. :) Jay

Well we are back from Worthersee. Got back in this evening about half an hour ago. Tired, but had an awesome time. Pictures and vids will follow shortly, one particular vid of my car hitting an accurate 165MPH on a German Autobahn will also be up on this thread soon :) Jay

Looks like there are no feet on the passenger side lift legs. That might be the reason it slid off!

VDUBBER - Cheers mate. Yes I am planning on getting it to Leeds VW festival. Jay

"Bare metal" is both completely unnessecary and actually detrimental. The only reason to do a completely bare metal respray is if you have some major rot (unlikely on a Corrado) or you have serious contamination in the paint for some reason. By removing EVERYTHING from a bodyshell you remove all the factory protection from moisture that can never be replicated in a bodyshop however good it is. Basically a flat down 2 pak primer and respray will give you as good a finish as you will ever need and still maintain the original factory sealing. Jay

He is getting better at it too, Will get some new piccies of it for you on the Worthersee trip ;) Jay

The TT ashtray is actually suspended above open space. So if you got the downlighter out of it you could mount that in the underside of undertrays on rado dash... Jay

If you can get hold of a TT ashtray downlighter that will do the job nicely. I don't think I could ever fit a neon to my car, just out of principle :) Jay

Always useful to have contacts like that. Jay
