joby

Just polished and waxed the corrado after doing the dreaded heater matrix, All nice and warm with no steam on the dash now. Thought id clean the inside and do the leather aswell, I bought a car polisher and used auto glym resin polish and then waxed her with autoglym wax. what a diference, Hard work but worth it.. heres a couple of pics

No probs mate only up the road anyway "colwyn bay" Enjoy your pissup :drinking:

Like CorradoVR6-n.o.s says Get that garage built, I`ll build it fo you as im a bricklayer! Put two nice pits in it one for you and one for me :wink: and i`ll build it free of charge for you

Lovely view there ben where about are you in anglesey nice back garden too

Hey up AlunR im another north wales corrado owner, Colwyn Bay for my sins..

Cheers trev sorted it now once it was all bolted up it was solid anyway and i did have to pull the dash slightly away from the body just gotta put it all back together tomorrow...

Hi all Just in the process of doing my heater matrix and like the clumsy clott i am ive managed to break the rear lugs of the of the long fan housing thingy and was hoping the front two fixings will hold it with some strong sealant at the back will i be able to bolt the heater box in first then offer the remaining arm in afterwards or can you not get to it once the heater box is in, any advice appreciated, heres a pic of what i mean

One more question davidwort have you changed bushes at all was thinking of pollybushes all round and new wishbones arbs etc top mounts as the car feels vague at high speed!!

Thanks davidwort looks like i`ll price some konis up then..

Hi davidwort what was the Koni Eibach combination like as im running bilstein eibach at the mo and its just too crashy so was thinking of this combination.

Hi drewiee99 were you at the malvern show last year if so i spoke to you there and your car was Mint..

Andy665 i agree i think it could get boring after a while but thanfully i drove it stupidly for the short time i was in it :twisted:

Ive Just Driven my mates 53plate M3 what a car its been de restricted and does 175mph (private road obviously) I couldnt believe the awesome power this thing had especially in sport mode you find it hard to drive with the traction off i just had it sideways all the time even with the traction on i kicked the tail out going down a slip road in 3rd has anyone ever driven one on here i have read a couple of posts where people on have given an M3 a run for the money with a VR6 I find that hard to believe ! What an awesome car but it should be for £27000 i suppose....

herisites did you stay in kalamaki? we go there every year and love it there I know the corrado your on about, A friend who runs a bar there says its the only one on the island we used to see him most nights chasing up and down the strip like an idiot :lol: made me feel at home

ben16v just let me know mate and we can book it 8)

ben16v I was thinking of having the wur mod done at stealth being as though you are only down the road from me fancy a trip down one weekend and geting them on the rollers :)

Cheers matth76 will do

Just wondering if anyone has any idea on how much and who does this conversion i have used the search but didnt realy find anything! I know stealth used to do the conversion and i did try to ring them on friday but no answer! I was thinking of maybe selling up and buying a VR but the car is really imaculate and only has 68000 on the clock with full leather and lots spent I have been offered 2.5k for it from a mate but would have to spend another 3 to 4k to get a good VR, Some conversion quotes would be nice then i can make my mind up :?

yeh and you stealing all the bits of it to put on your dads 1972 escort van :D

Edward Get yourself a corrado and you wouldnt have these problems :cuckoo: :drinking:

Nice car, looks lower than 40mm mines 40mm low on 15" split rims and doesnt look that low, Looks Grand in Red my first c was red 8)

Nice find :D Ive recently changed from 205/40/17s to 195/45/15 and noticed the car seems actually slower on acceleration think i will have to change to 195/50/15s :?

Thats Cheap can i ask where from :wink:

Its already been lowered 40mm i can only just get it off the drive as it is

Well I picked the wheels up on saturday and they are in stunning condition! A quick polish and i fitted them, I have mixed feelings really the car sits 20mm lower at the back and 10mm at the front and feels like a Go Kart to drive it actually feels slower on accereration than the 17s whats that all about and lots more road noise im wondering if the tyre combination is right, 195/45/15 as oppose to standard 185/55/15 if im correct they do look slightly lost in the arches but what can you expect after 17s i suppose.. Any thoughts on the tyre size ?? heres a couple of pics
