    How did you know Furkz :) Jay

    It shouldn't really do much harm in theory, just they will be a bit of a hard ride! Jay

    38!!!!!!! jesus!!!! I run my fronts at 32PSI and the rears at 29PSI. Jay

    I see what you mean but by spacing the 1.5mm U shape away from the original beam you are increasing the I value quite a bit I should think. Fair enough its only 1.5mm steel, which may not make much difference, but if it doesn't it will probably twist and fatigue?? Difficult one.... I don't see why it won't look OK as it is.... Jay

    I have a new project for the car. Will not be in for a while and will be a bit of a development thing, but should be interesting. I am not going to say anything until I start it incase it doesn't happen. Its not engine related. :) jay

    Lee - You are effectively doubling the thickness of the beam by doing that which would increase the torsional strength massively, which is what makes the rear beam "work". As Andy said you will end up with virtually a solid rear axle. Jay

    That is an older guy down who lives down in Bournemouth. I remeber going to look at the car a few years back when he had it up for sale. Nice bloke and quite a nice VR and obviously he didn't sell it, unless he sold it with his personal plate. Jay

    How much

    24V Renshaw replied to Nick's topic in Exterior

    Best thing to do is give him a bell and ask. He is a really really nice bloke. Just tell him I sent you. Jay

    How much

    24V Renshaw replied to Nick's topic in Exterior

    If you are anywhere near Bournemouth contact my mate Gary @ insignia coachworks. 01202716808 Awesome painter with a lot of practice on Corrados ;) You would really want the whole side doing as its not worth painting part of the door. Shouldn't be too much. Jay

    Solder them on then shrink sleeve them in black, then wrap in proper loom tape. Can't get better than that. jay

    9th April Yeah I will definately see it at some point, but there will be a good collection of rados at stealth. Jay
  12. 24V Renshaw
    Nah that would cost way too much money and I would never get any of it back selling all my bits ;) Jay

    Cheers Bally. I like the idea of a Turbo, but I want to do a bit more research first and I need to save up £££ :) Yeah I think you're right Shaggsy, it could do with a rebuild after the 16,000 trouble free miles its done since I did the conversion. :)
  14. 24V Renshaw
    Stan are you coming down for the stealth rolling road day? Would be interested in having a look at your conversion. See what he has done differently/the same. Jay
  15. 24V Renshaw
    Nothing major. Fancy a bit of trackday action to be honest. Turbo conversion is always in the back of my mind, but I am really enjoying driving it as it is at the mo. :) Jay
  16. 24V Renshaw
    The extended end cap looks interesting though..... Jay
  17. 24V Renshaw
    You will be the first to know what its like Kev. :) You are welcome to have a drive at Stealth to see what you think. Got all the bits brand new from VW for £20 odd. Just gave them the part numbers and they got them in for me no problem. I will post up the part numbers when I do it all as I don't have them here at the mo. Jay

    lol. Typical VW over engineering it! I am going to be fitting my new SEAT rack next weekend. I have also bought new bearings and bushes for the steering column itself, so I will basically be rebuilding the whole steering system. I will post up all the photos and results. Jay

    Thats what I did. was G60 Renshaw now 24v Renshaw ;) Jay
  20. 24V Renshaw
    Thanks mate. I have done everything myself or on the cheap so not as much as people seem to think. I have only just moved up North from Bournemouth in Sept. Still miss it. Jay
  21. 24V Renshaw
    Yep that would be Paul. He has only bought it recently and going by previous projects it will not stay standard ish for long. His last car was a 16vG60 MK2. Before that a 4WD 16vG60 Rado :) He has some big plans for the VR engine. Jay
  22. 24V Renshaw
    Check all the bolts for the alternator, pumps etc.. I once had a rattle I could not get rid of for love nor money on my G60, but eventually discovered it was the alternator bolt was loose Jay
  23. 24V Renshaw
    Did you touch anything else when you replaced the fusebox or since you replaced the fusebox? anything you have fitted, replaced anything unrelated? Jay
  24. 24V Renshaw
    Andy - You have PM. Jay
  25. 24V Renshaw
    ...and words are cheap! He actually quite spot on tho, conversions arent too tricky as long as you plan it out and use you head. Im also assuming you will have some engineering savvy (should go without saying, shouldnt buy a rad unless you know how to weild a spanner :lol: ) Kev, Rossco, have you two done one yet? :lol: G60Greeny - I am always willing to do work for money :) Jay
