  1. be careful as some of the part numbers do get muddled up against the images, used the site for a few months and noticed a few errors but good for diagrams at least!
  2. http://www.juswheels.co.uk/ i've had a set of RS's and my current RM's off mark, cant recommend him enough!! scott
  3. been and had my mate fit my clifford alarm with intellistart today, after we finished i decided to have a mess about with the wagon in the yard! cant tell that one of my drivers at work reversed into me yesterday hey!? back in the bodyshop next week! :cry: :roll: scott

    which oil??

    15w40 sounds a bit thick, i use 10w40 in my VR also, checked in a valvoline book and they recommend 10w40 for the G60 also. a gallon of decent 10W40 (valvoline maxlife) should only be about £18 scott
  5. cheers for that guys, never knew it would have such a big impact, i've had loads of positive feedback! i've always loved the smoth and wide approach with all my cars but this has really fulfilled the look i wanted to achieve.
  6. i'll have to see how next weekend pans out and get in touch mate,i've got another mate with a vr who wants to see it so might do a mini meet lol i need to have a look how to fix the brackets but i may well take you up on that offer Dave! i like the darkened headlights but i've been thinking of other ways to achieve the effect like lacquer with a hint of black in it. will get some pics of the indicators once the high power LED's have come as they're a bit sketchy at the minute, at night the light is absorbed by main beam so i have to be careful :roll: scott
  7. when the time comes i'll work a way of attaching some side repeaters to the mirrors like the new mercs... either that or one of my customers at work will pass it i'm sure 8) Scott
  8. am really happy with it thanks mate! i split the headlights and have drilled out and fitted a bulb holder in the casing between the main beam/ full beam reflectors. At the minute i've got a small side repeater bulb in there but waiting on some high power led's and going to fashion a small reflector around them for maximum visibility. scott
  9. these are RM's tho bud, originally off a Cav GSi - 5 x 110 PCD and so had them drilled to 5 x 100 for the VR. furkz saw the car at UD's and was the first thing he asked too... scott
  10. cheers guys! they're def. 15's lol we came across them by luck, my mate who did my RS's for my polo had them in his shed so ordered up some new outers, bit of paint and voila! had to grind on the front caliper/ carrier to fit them tho :) not sure where i stand on the number plate location, until i can make up some brackets or the law tells me otherwise, thats where its staying lol i like the grill using the golf vr6 badge, its textured tho so not sure about the colour coding idea... am taking all suggestions on board tho :wink: scott
  11. did think about those but we're going to do something different with the standard items when it goes back in to get the aerial removed and a couple of other bits...
  12. Well after 6 months or so of owning the corrado i put my hand in my pocket and got the car resprayed and a few mods done. i got it rushed out of the bodyshop last saturday at 7pm and rolled straight down to the Ultimate Dubs show... talk about cutting it fine, i had to get the organisers to let me in at 10pm!! The car has done 106k, and was standard when i got it apart from some horrible 17" rims. I've fitted a green cotton filter, scorpion cat back stainless exhaust and have a 6 branch manifold and milltek de-cat going on shortly. Bodyshop has just done: Smoothed front bumper, no fogs or indicators Indicators re-located to headlamps headlamp inners painted black and lenses tinted with film mattig de-badged grille side repeaters welded up and smoothed door rub strip mouldings removed de-locked handles arches rolled and sealed badges removed from rear 90mm splitter I've decked the car on weitec coilovers and fitted the 8.5" x 15" BBS RM's which luckily dont catch at all! let me know what you think...

  15. Thought it was bout time i added to this thread, car is due out the body shop in the next week so thought i'd show off the bling before they go on!

    serpentine belt

    lol ignore me then! :roll: the G60 + A/C uses a 1755mm belt so i'd say it would be similar in length... scott

    serpentine belt

    the belt you need is a 7DPK1360 cheapest i can do it is £17 + vat to give you an idea, good news is they're common coz the merc vito vans use this size too.

  22. i've jus had some mats n bits for mine and they did take about 4 weeks sent by freight mail so can be very slow! was worth the wait tho.
  23. GSF stock brembo so may be able to get the 324mm discs thru them, still wont be cheap tho...
  24. at ECP we can get the arms for approx £35+ vat each and the links are about £8 + vat each hope this helps... scott
