Just read this thread , great read . Great news with the BHP .
-
Nice read and great to see the Corrado being featured again .
-
The VR is looking nice . I've got to fix my heatsheild too . As soon as you hit 2.5 k revs it rattles in a nasty tinny sound .
-
There should be caps on them , but if not yeah they will be obvious .
-
They just pull off Jamie , they are pushed on to some clips .There are also some small screws that need to be removed .

Looking forward to the next instalment . I get envious of other chaps getting their cars sorted . I've had my powdercoated beam for two months now , just a few more parts and a tax rebate and I will be sorting mine .
-
Thanks for the info , will pop out tonight to get a copy .
-
When I looked in to it , the manufacturers told me the clips add on a lot more money . If they were just flat and stuck on , you could do them at a reasonable cost .

The grills are £53.00 from Heritage on their own .

The paint looks lovely. The OCDness will now kick in , you will be checking it day and night for marks ! .

Nah , a quick dust off and those brakes will be pucker lol . They do look a tad past it ! . I've just had a beam powdercoated , they do look so fresh when they are done .

Many thanks chaps , I had forgotten that when the car was painted , they coated the aches in underseal , it was cleaned out at the time , So it was only 4 years worth of dusty mud really . All cleaned out and another worry off my mind .

I believe it's a standard fuel line, 8mm . The spring clips can be purchased in any motor factors , or you can use jubilees if you prefer .

Great info thank you .
-
Many thanks Ian .

Will do mate . Thanks again . Rob

Thanks Easy , would it be better to remove the rubber flap completely ? Just so I can see what's going on behind there .
-
Morning everyone . I've noticed when I wash the car or when we've had rain the water builds up inside the filler cap . I can see a hole there , can I push some wire down there to clean it out ? . I presume it's a drain hole ? . I keep meaning to look into this . I've just seen easy pops thread and I don't want to end up with a rusty rear quarter . Regards Rob

Fair play to you you for taking on this sort of work easy pops . Looking forward to the updates .

Hi Phil , I didn't make it to my mates over the weekend , but should be able to get over tomorrow . If I can take any useful pics I will post them up for you .

What is this noise? Piston slap? (VR6) - maybe not the end of the world..

Thats better news Jim . If this is the cause at least you know its not going to be half as much work as any bottom end stuff . -
Sad day for you Kip . A lot of effort went into this car .
-
Thanks for the info chaps . Kind regards Rob

Thanks Chris . The detailing spray yes ? .

Evening all . What are you using On these parts . My gutter trims are around two years old and could do with brightening up . Also any plastic parts , wing mirror triangles and the window rubbers . Ideally i want a product which won't cause streaks after a shower . Many thanks Rob .
