:scratch: DAMN.... i was getting these fairly cheap with tyres which is why i was looking at how much messing around is involved to get these on. Just out of interest, when im looking for wheels, ideally a set of 16", what ET's do i need to look out for as i realise there is more to it then what meets the eye.

Hi Mate, firstly, nice car Thanks for the reply and comments, i do want them to poke, but not so much that i will be constantly hasseld by the law. i was looking more at the 20/25mm pcd adaptors. Do you think i will get away with this? The car does have coilovers fitted so can adjust the ride hight if needs be. ---------- Post added at 02:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:52 PM ---------- Hi "luke w", thanks for the comments. When you say they will stick out quiet a bit, any approximate indication on how far the will stick out.??

Hi "swiftkid". Thanks for the reply. I can confirm the following, I have a 1.8 16v Corrado (4 x 100) The Keskin KT1's are 5 x 100. Im really after advise on if the offset is correct, to be honest i know very little about wheels which is why im asking about it before i go off and spend the loot.

Hi all, Im thinking about putting on a set of Keskin KT1's on my Corrado. Before i do any buying, i need to know if i can get these one there without too much of a ball ache. Details are below, FRONT: 16 x 7.5 ET 20 REAR: 16 x 9 ET 15 The Stud pattern is 5 x 100, so i know i can buy a set of PCD adaptors to convert this from the currect stud pattern which is 4 x 100. Please can you help me and let me knwo if this is possible? My arches appear to have already been rolled back so clearance shouldnt be too much of an issue?!? Thanks for reading, look forward to views/comments/suggestions. Veejay.

Got the hanbrake cables, bolted it all back together, and this is how she looks after some hard core polishing and cleaning.

Recently i have been trying to tidy the car up, so i bought a new aeriel, removed the rear wiper and filled the hole with a gromit (actually does the trick really well). The person who owned this car before me did a poor wiring job, so i recently ripped out the Sony headunit, replaced it with an Alpine CDA7944R 6 channel preout with 4V front/rear/sub. Copper chasis. Digital optical out, BBE, black out. This along with a new power cable, some reconnecting and a new proper fuse holder, what a difference it makes. All speakers are now running of two amps along with the subs. Sounds pretty crisp now too. Not my final install but will do for the time being. Veejay.

Hi Karl, yes i think your quiet right there. Watch this space then, lol. I think it may need a 1.8T Karl Convertsion too when i have enough chedder to buy the engine and other bits. Thanks again for the advice yesterday. Will let you know once i have managed to get down the bank. Regards Veejay.

Your Corrado is beautiful, really nice, clean and original. She's looking really good, and its nice to see a silver one in such good shape.

Nice work, i like the Audioscape door pods but i also like the idea of mounting them to the actual door. Nice work..

Thanks Tej, I can recommend someone if your having troubles, lols. Nahh... the lights were fitted nicely thanks. Its all about that tool box

Thanks man, the more i look at this car the more i love it. Your bang on about the all reds, much better, cleaner and look the part on white paint work. I was lucky enough to bag these locally. :-D Although the Clear/Reds looked ok and far better than the standard ones with orange, i personally thought they looked cheap. Used to live in Moortown/Roundhay, just off Street Lane if you know that area at all? (Roundhay Park). ---------- Post added at 01:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:52 PM ---------- Thanks Andy - Only got them yesterday and just had to put them straight on. As Critical Mass said, The light compliment the white paint work really well. Got plans for it for sure, but im going to take my time as i plan to keep the car and i want things done properly and without cutting corners. Thinking body work first, defo need a set of BBS Splits (white centres polished lip) then maybe a new engine next year. ---------- Post added at 02:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:55 PM ---------- The Stem is simply missing, ill have one soon tho.

Hi Mate, here you go.... let me know what you think. Veejay.

Hi Mate, Welcome... hope you enjoy the Corrado. I just recently bought myself one, my first car too and love it. If you interested, i have some temp sounds you might be interested in. Its currently built into the car, but i dont like it and wnt to get rid. Ill take some pics of the boot install later and you can have a look if its of interest.

Hi Mate, thanks for the message, interested in the bumper.. just depends on how much you want for it to part with it?

Just thought i would add some more pics to the thread as i have been busy tidying up the old girl. I managed to grab some all red lights for the back, these are simply amazing. They seem to have a body shop finish so they dont look cheap or tacky. I have included some pics (before and after shots). Also got round to spraying the Corrado badge in Satin Black, again done in my garage in my own time. Hope you like it.....

thamks for the reply, i really need one door handle as i cant get it passed on MOT without this, bloody nightmare. If you know of anyone selling any handles, please can you direct them my way. Thanks Veejay.

At User Lod - If you need any bits, i have some things i got with the car which i need to move on.... let me know.

Hi Mate, thanks. I feel like a proper Dubber now i got my own and im on the forums. Yes that is a Matt Black Vinyl roof, that was already on the car when i bought it in April this year. I have got some more pictures, i put an album on here earlier today. If you view my profile you will see an album on there. I noticed your from Leeds, i used to live there for 21 years..... :-)

Hi Mate, anything left of this car? I like the bumper, but only the front one? Also in need of one door handle, passenger side?

Hi Mate, im after the passenger side door handle, do you stil have this? Also, i am interested in your Grill if you still have this. Please can you let me know, My MOT is dependant on the door handle as its not working from the outside.. Thanks Veejay.

Hi Mate, im after a door handle, passenger side.... can you help? Thanks Veejay.
