  1. its quite easy to remove the roof lining (bit extreme for cleaning IMO) undo all the plastics on A,B and C pillars, plastics around the boot and it should just slide out?!
  2. have you got any links to sites that sell BBS splits (apart from e-bay) just wanna look how much they`re going for really? (ideally RM 7" or 8" x 15,16 or 17")
  3. ouch that sounds v.nasty, prolly would be better off being a W.Off (apart from the increased insurance side of things) wouldn`t wanna deal with the repercussions of that in the future!
  4. if a cars been flood damaged i heard that they write it off pretty easily because of the argument that if something goes wrong in the future then it can be blamed on the water.... free repairs for ever on the insurance!!! also what does hydraulic`d mean??
  5. i saw a deals on wheels a while ago and there was a C in the background, wasn`t featured but has been mentioned on here before! also was was watching a police camera action type programme the other night and whilst on-board with the cops in a chase a corrado flew pasted in the opposite direction!

  9. went up to a mates house (10mins away)got into my car on the way back and it fired then rev`s dropped and stalled, started it again and it stayed going as long as i kept a bit of revs, pulled upto a junction about 30yds along dies again 200yds along and it seems fine! it`s absoloutly chucking it down and did have a couple of moments of alternator belt slippage, dimming of lights and a little misfire on the way up maybe obvious i know but do you guys think the stalling is cos of the water or is there anything else i should be looking out for? 1.8 16v BTW thanks
