  1. dubster82, hope you can make it ! Right I'm off out to put in another 12 hr day, just been to GSF in Norwich this morning and met some fellow Corrado boys there (nice to meet you lads), might post one or 2 last pics of the interior tomorrow depending on how I get on. My plan is to finish the interior by the end of tomorrow... B
  2. Paul, Jay... do it.. near 500bhp is just awesome, but.. I have just sourced a lambo v12 engine, which I plan to fit and twin turbo... try and keep up boys.. :wink:
  3. NO CAMBER my arse :lol: :lol: Same as mine, has loads of camber at the rear, Coxy take a closer look :lol: :lol: !!! But the rest of the car rocks!! Seriously it looks awesome, front bumper looks familiar... 8) 12/10 mate !!!!!
  4. :lol: yep we all have problems... :cuckoo: :lol: :lol:
  5. Yeah and I might have my V16 quad turbo engine fitted, 1001bhp...
  6. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :!: I could just draw 4 extra valves and 2 cyl's on a bit of paper and stick it to the side of my engine... :!: :lol: I'll wait until they do a group thrash and then see what your all made off :twisted:
  7. Sure it wasn't 'VolksDaft'? urhh yeah quite possibly! :lol:
  8. Any room for a 20v in there, only 4 valves short :wink: You'll be able to have a go at keeping up, I promise, I'll give you a small head start :wink: 8) :lol:
  9. cheers chap. Indeed it was a different car at Inters 04, since I started the project I have had 3 sets of wheels and 5 different sets of front seats!! It was only a shell at Inters 04, but now it will be at least 95% finished for E38 (I hope) If your there on friday night I might have to beg for your services like everyone else who's going to be there to help me clean it!! :wink:
  10. Think you might be jumping the gun a little on best in class and best car of the show! :oops: :oops: The enigne is very mucky and I don't know if I have time to clean it before the show, my trimmer wants me to stick it in the show and shine on Sunday to see how his trimming compares to others, so I think I might put some effort into cleaning it for his sack and enter it..lol The dash prob weighs a bit more than standard, maybe another 10-20kg but the front seats only weigh about 5kg each, plus I'm going to have 300+ bhp so I don't think a little extra pounds is going to make a whole lot of a difference... The car wasn't really built for show and shine events, as the engine + 4wd is very much very functional, no bling chrome or polishing under the bonnet! but it would be nice to win a cup or 2 .. :lol: :lol: I like the pun btw, 'dashing' lol cheers for your comments none the less, :oops: :oops:
  11. My unique mods are as follows, for pics see my gallery as I can't be bothered to post pics, hehehe... Would 4wd in a corrado (done 3 years ago!) and a TVR interior including all TVR switches and warning lights be unique, or is it just plan coockoo?
  12. erhh, what about Doug's corrado..? hehehehe btw, nice wheels :))
  13. Apparently it has a small kink in the roof...!
  14. John, As I said on the phone last week I'm sorry this has happened, I thought the insurance company would wright it off. Let me know when your taking orders for parts, I need a few bits :)
  15. Its all about E38 my man! Its not too far from sunny Scotland...
  16. It certainly has character :lol: and aits now splattered to bits with under seal/stone guard etc. Ben, I am keeping it yellow, original colour, no special mixes. I dont think VR6Banana could take it if I painted his old car blue lol I was speaking with the painter and he agrees it should stay the original or as close to the original colour as possible. Its the car identity, its like a D list celebrity in certain corners of the country! Should be going to Edition 38 - when is it? 2,3rd of Sep matey, you better be there, would be nice to meet you at last, same goes to others.. Paul H etc etc Coxy you have a PM.. :D
  17. They will need it for at least 1-2 weeks, Elton @ Jabba reckons anything between 350 and 390bhp !!!! His rallye is the same spec as mine and it dyno'd at 383bhp !!!!! :wink:
  18. Booked the car into Jabba for mapping on the 30th July... yeppie!!!
  19. They are very strong! Glass Fibre coated in filler to get a good finish for the leather to stick to. I'm trying to get the car booked into Jabba as we speak! (to get it running, over fuelling at the moment) Leaving mapping to later in the year..
  20. Make it to E38 and you'll at least see the car, maybe not the drifting.. We will be there friday night matey for a good load off beer, join us, think Hugo is coming.. Doubt it will be running by then but you never know..?
  21. atif, corradowales, Thanks guys, you won't be disappointed! Saw the leather I have chosen in the flesh yesterday and it looks awesome! see you all at E38!
