Tottenham here. Missed the game today as I was at Retro Rides. Good to finally see us get a pen! Understand Holloway was unhappy though? From what I've been told, I don't envy you dude.

I take it the Crack Pipe fits all VR6 engines? If so, I'll have it please. :thumbleft:

Of no use to me, so up for grabs... say £5? Can bring to Stanford Hall next Sunday.

Audi A3 Pepperpots. 195/50 Toyos and Adaptors Included
Idlewillkill posted a topic in Parts for Sale
Fancy a change, so these are up for grabs. As you can see, 9/10 condition wise, only one wheel has scuffs. Tyres are toyo proxies with loads of tread left. 25mm adaptors all round. Wheels regularly cleaned, including the backs. Polished and sealed every two months by myself. £200 all in, which I think to be more than fair. Perfect wheels for your daily. Collection or you arrange a courier. Would prefer collection, a brew will be waiting for you upon arrival. Located in Kidderminster, Worcs. Very close to the M5/M6 and M42 network. -
Just a quick update on how the engine is looking. Finished polishing the inlet and gave the rocker cover a few coats of paint too. Have bought some wrinkle paint for the plastics so will be getting on that asap. Also, after a reading a thread elsewhere have bought some draft excluder type stuff to help stop water getting into the bay by lining the wings with it. A picture... And cleaned up the area around the air box and fitted an induction kit. Great noise! Finally painted the radiator cover and added new stickers...

They are RS's in spirit LOL. Replicas dude, for the money they were a bargain not to be turned down. Again, thanks for the kind words.

Cheers man. 17 inch wheels 8.5 rears 7.5 fronts et 52 20mm hubcentric spacers on the front to clear calipers car looks good from 10 feet currently, needs bodywork but I'm pretty chuffed.

Well, it's on the road now. Been waiting for a day without snow and bitter wind to give the old girl a decent wash. That happened today, so on with the pics! My fav pic Love driving it, impressed with the MPG, no where near as harsh as I was expecting and by god does she turn heads! Bring on show season!

Possibly one of the greatest gaming machines ever made. A1200 was a monster. Fantastic video! I was born in the 80s but can remember the majority of that. Ta for posting.

That will do lovely, ta. :thumbleft:

Interesting........ any chance of a picture or two please?

Blue example, unsure of reg or engine, driving past sainsburys petrol station in Kidderminster just now!

What's this? Have a fairly serious coolant leak myself and suspect the tank/black cap. Would like to know more about this.

The "what I did to my Corrado today" thread...

Got mine road legal :thumbleft: This might be love...... -
I have been doing stuff I promise! :smug: So, the heater blower now works on all 4 speeds thanks to a second hand resistor. The wiper fuse now doesn't blow out, thanks to advice on here leading me to buy a replacement arm. And the drivers mirror now moves freely. Fixed itself. Bonus. Now, the none starting issue I believe to be a battery drain. I left the face on the stereo and after two days the battery was showing 9 volts. Most odd. Worth noting tho that the battery will creep down to 11/12 volts after a few days and the car wont turn over, even without the stereo face in. Still, a job for another day. Did some cosmetics to keep myself amused... Brake calipers before... And after... Rears got the same treatment... And treated myself... Also bought wheels, induction kit (I like the noise) and second hand Powerflow exhaust. Tyres to be bought tomorrow. Aiming to have the car in use for friday. Will hopefully have the Coilovers on tomorrow too. Thanks.

Ahhh, yeah with you. That makes sense, cheers dude.

Hey guys. First the wheel specs... ET - 35 Size - 17 Inch Front Width - 7.5 Rear Width - 8.5 So with the high offest, I'm guessing that epic stretch is not really needed. With this in mind, I'm thinking 195/40 all round. 195 would be pretty flush against the rim on a 7.5 width, and a nice bit of stretch on the 8.5 just to play it safe with lowering. However, everyday is a school day so any advice is more than welcome :thumbleft: Thank you in advance.

Guys, sorry another newbie question! What's this little thing? The rubber bit has a load of cable ties around it and it looks to have seen better days. Cheers for any help in advance :)

Ebay, a second hand unit. Think there are brand new pattern part versions available too? I just prefer genuine parts, even if they are second hand.
