hello all does anybody by any chance, & i know this is likely a long shot, have a spare set of stainless tank straps they would be willing to part with please? the body shop has said mine are past their best ive checked Heritage & they only have the non stainless 55l ones in stock thanks

Hi all Does anybody know if the corrado uses an encapsulated windscreen or not? my VR6 is in the body shop & i need to get it a new windscreen - Pilkington have an option for encapsulated or not but ive no clue what that means or implies anyone any idea? thanks muchly

tidy thanks fender

thanks guys i had the drivers window mech replaced & this is when the rattle started are they easily visible when you have the door lining down? im not even sure where im looking lol

hi all does anyone know how the window rollers fit? the site the guide was on is no longer alive & seeing as ive got all the interior out it might be worth fitting them to get rid of the rattle thanks

the VR is looking great goldie!! i thought you might like to know that the kit i got from you is being put on my VR as part of the body restoration 😄

pretty sure i brought rear light seals from there a couple of years ago - im sure they were in the box i gave to the body shop but not sure if they included the light on the rear hatch as well

2 weeks down, 3 or 4 to go.....

well - the BIG day has finally arrived after many years of collecting & hoarding parts & somehow managing to find another Kamei skirt kit the VR6 is about to be dropped off to the body shop for some serious treatment 😄 ive stripped out rear seats, rear & front door cards & passenger seat, loaded up boxes of new/replacement parts & put the skirt kit in - next stop no rust & fresh paint all over just need to try & sort a replacement windscreen as wouldnt you know 2 days before the screen is due to come out ive noticed several cracks in the lower passenger side corner, typical lol hopefully i can figure out how to put some pics on here of a before & after - hold tight im a tad nervous lol

does anyone have a guide on how to fit these pls? looks like the canadian site on the 1st page is no longer functional :( thanks in advance

good new, thanks Toby!

I had 263's dropped in during my head rebuild & also went for the BMC - with a Vince remap & a good free flowing exhaust id guesstimate you would end up around the 220-225 mark FYI the BMC sounds awesome!! :D

good points Mr Bacon a friend showed me an Escort RS2000 which has just gone for over 90K from the NEC classic show!!

nice graph Spen & looks very similar to that on mine - gotta love the way Vince gets the power delivery so smooth throughout the full range :D

cracking!! screen printed & saved for agreed value proof next year many thanks for posting the link

My VR went for a head rebuild, chains & refresh at Stealth - during which i had SP263's dropped in, BMC air filter & a Vince re-map amongst other things I ended up with just shy of 210 horses with almost the same torque IIRC. I have since had a 2.5" Longlife SS with hi-flow CAT fitted & would guess a new map would be approaching the 215 - 220 mark I think the best part about all the work was the map Vince put on it, the power delivery is far & away better than the factory map. i will dig out my power curve output & try to post it as an example

thanks m8 - i did think about him when i walked the dog earlier but then forgot

title & post edited as i am looking for the part which houses the headlight switch & air vent

thanks all upon inspection today it seems the switch itself is not the offending item it looks like the housing it slots into has cracked & is allowing the right hand side of the switch to move such that the switch cant go to off position

tidy thanks fendervg much appreciated & i will take a look if im honest the one that has failed was the 2014 group buy with LED version which was extremely bright & reflective off the windows

Hi - i would possibly be interested in the BBS center caps, what were your thoughts on those? thanks

Hello all Does anybody have a working headlight switch available please? My first trip out in the VR in the dark for a long time & the bloody headlight switch broke such that it wont turn the lights off. It was one of the repro ones from the group buy on here. Hence i had to disconnect the battery when i got home last night. thanks in advance EDIT: so, it seems it is not the switch that is broken. i have somehow cracked the housing into which the switch sits by the air vent. thus the switch pushes back when trying to turn the lights off Does anybody have a good condition housing section available please?

cracking pics n3p :D

i have one of those on my VR Dox so can confirm they fit fine
