  1. a blue storm, blue vr6 and a girl in a valver all in the same day!!!! all in cambridge the storm and the vr6 were parked near the river and the girl waved....well she would wouldnt she :-P :lol:
  2. http://www.wheelrefurbishing.com im currently dealing with them to get my wheels refurbed and they seem profesional and they were recommended by someone (cant remember who though)
  3. when are you fitting yours kev??? in time for inters? i will be there sunday with camera for any who want new pics but dont have a digital of their own!
  4. faked storms!!!! :shock: where......not mine officer :oops: thought so, spent quite alot of time in switz and italy in my friend porsche, why cant the brits make great driving roads like that!!! all we have are speed bumps! :mad:
  5. so did you have the chains done aswell??? how much was that if i can ask!!?? and what did you do to the suspension....
  6. wow, looks like italy!! so about this swap!! :mrgreen:
  7. any pics of 'milly' if you want i'll do a swap...you can have my vr6 and i'll have th m3......its gonna be a tough swap for me but i'll have to deal with it :lol:
  8. im glad you have established the difference between the golf and corrado....now you just need to make sure you dont buy the golf :lol: :lol: just kidding.. there is a buying guide on what to look for on corrados and also there are alot of storms on auto trader right now...nice low mileages ones...but be warned you will pay a premium for them!
  9. thumbs up for the wheel machine site!!!! never seen this one before! want to buy wheels now though :roll:
  10. yeah yeah yeah....im just jealous... anyway back to MY problem. i have secured a abs unit (actually abs unit, heater fan assembly and heater dial panel (the bit with the prism rings)) for £55 :lol: so i will now hove to work out how much it will cost to change.
  11. must be more than 190 lbft.....that would only be a gain of 6lbft for the £1000 you shelled out!!
  12. so is it hitting the silencer of the pipe? i think this could be my knocking noise as it only started after i lowered the car
  13. hmm, i'll have to test it next time the light is on then. If its only gonna cost £50 for a second hand unit and pay mates rates for my mechanic to fit it i'll do it just to get rid of the orage glow of the abs light at night!! :roll:
  14. exactly .....and knowing my luck...........the light will come on about 3 seconds before i actually have to use the ABS, so i'd rather get it changed. I'll have a word with my mechanic to see if he can do it.
  15. but when the light is on i understood the abs wont work??? to be honest i havent tried it cause whenever im near a damp grassy area the light is never on. it's something any able bodied mechanic could do then i guess??? dont want to pay wv prices though!!
  16. getting fed up with my abs light coming on and no one seemed to know what the error was (differential lock valve???) there is an abs pump on ebay at present and a couple of vr6's for breaking so i may get one for a reasonable price what is involved in changing this over? is it a 'do it yourself' job or 'specialist mechanic only' thank you
  17. not wanting to sound boring and uptight (too late!!!) but isnt this getting a bit off topic!!! besides....dont we want more pics of girls rather than shaven cats???? unless your into that kinda thing :shock:
  18. someone already has the titans on a vr6, i have seen the avatar somewhere!!!
  19. no picture...... was it you who bought the speedline alloys off me??? how are they now? still mint?
  20. £2000...... for a new wing, light and front pannel!!! where did you take it? Porsche!!! you know your entitled to take it anywhere you like for a second opinion and your insurance company has to pay for the quote you decide is the best (as long as you can justify the quote)
  21. i had this with my honda.... luckily one of the guys in the workshop had owned a couple of crx's and does private work on the side so i get him to come to my house and do all the work here....he said he would do the vr6 aswell but id rather find a VW mechanic to be honest!
  22. there are hundread of thread about alloys, just a case of searching im affraid! in a nutshell 4x100 on all corrados apart from the vr6 which is 5x100 17" with 205/40/17 is about the biggest you can go without arch mods or hitting the shocks offset depends on wheel width and type of corrado so its not a set rule but about 30 is a safe bet i would say
  23. I dont like the bumper without the mesh or without any side skirts.....makes the front of the car look too heavy!!! That and the fact its not actually the same colour.....IMO its got to go. nice car other wise... those brembos look huge!
  24. ha, its all these comments from guys about the gals photos that has made the 'readers wives' thread a disaster.....no-one wants to post a pic of their girl / wife cause they know it will get leered at :roll:
