  1. Two days on from the "new wheels" comment and i see no pictures of wheels.............!!!! Mine should be gong onto the speedlines this week for winterization as ive no interesting winters yet.
  2. What did the dealer charge you for a new sump? I ground mine a little when i had the car silly low.
  3. Scene tax???? Are these the wheel spec's that you've been searching for since May and were still doing so in September? http://the-corrado.net/showthread.php?70017-Bbs-rs-269-wanted Gareth (OSV) has a set which were made for the Corrado and in untouched factory new condition (17"s tho) at...........£1000 less!!!!!!!!!! Think you need to put these on ED38
  4. Think they are RZ's not RS's too and are usually 15"s on a Corrado if it helps. Glws
  5. Looking forward to seeing this knocking about round here!

  8. Thanks, Its a labour of love that by the looks your straight into yourself with your VW parts man your new best friend!!! Yea thats him. Sent you a message on ebay before noticing the username!!!
  9. Car looked mint Sunday, Good to see its gone to a home that'll take good care. Judge told Mrs M that it was a toss up between both cars for 1st place as they were both so good and he couldn't give another Corrado 2nd place and have two corrados 1st and 2nd in the 90's class.......... Oh well, Just chuffed to have been told he liked it! Should have cleaned it prior to the show lol!!!!! Corrado domination i say!! Catch you about, good to meet you anyway.

    Welcome, I'm not so far away in Preston.
  11. Time permitting I'll pop along for a bit, got a lot on though unfortunately.
  12. Thanks Kip, Chris it turns out i know the fella that had your VR quite a few years back, he said it randomly used to cut out but he never got to the bottom of it!
  13. Thanks, That bumpers stlil sat down the side of my house unused lol!!!! You need to get on with yours before you end up breaking it.
  14. Got a lot of love for this!!! Stance is spot on. Keep thinking of getting another just to go bagged and smooth.
  15. Why were there different sizes anyway? Is it the 90mm that's still available?
  16. Also won a trophy on Saturday so a good weekend for the Rado!, great show and its one for my calendar next year for sure! Missed the trucks but saw enough racing to find it entertaining, Maybe stay over next year.
  17. I'll give them a knock this week then and see what they say. thanks.
  18. Thanks, There were some nice cars in the show and shine too. Not many Corrado's seem to win anything ive noticed on the website.
  19. Been told of a blue Storm thats been sat on someones driveway for some time and hasnt moved, I'm trying to find out how long its been there before i go leaving a note. I went for a drive past tonight and sure enough it certainly looks not to have moved in a while, tyres almost flat, cobwebbed over, weeds behind it etc. Is it cheeky to stick a note through the door asking if they want to sell it? If not what would you write?
  20. Thanks, Wheels need some adjusting/cleaning yet but they are getting there. Its certainly going to be on our show calendar for next year. The dragsters doing 1/4 mile racing was certainly worth watching even if they do make your ears bleed they are sooooo loud! Plenty for the kids there too, fairground etc etc.
  21. Not any changes to report, But i want to keep the thread/blog updated. Still not sorted the new tyres yet but there's now no rush as there isnt any shows left really...Plus its almost winter wheel time!!! (winter wheels tbc) Firstly my favourite pic from the recent Unphased photoshoot meet: Drove down to VW-Action yesterday at Santa pod and entered the show and shine, Great show btw and always nice to come away with a trophy!!! O0 O0 O0 Oh and one of it at the show taken on my iphone as i was too lazy to take pictures, Much preferred to watch the drag cars ! B)
  22. The brakes on my RS4 are way bigger yet the corrado brakes stop exactly the same......... Errr not! Seriously tho if it helps.... Bigger discs don't stop you quicker, you'll also need larger pads to increase the surface area. More friction generated = better stopping power...... Why the hell have I just wasted 2min typing this more to the point!
  23. Anyone fancy this? Local to me and plenty of nice cars attend.
