StormchargedVR6 0 Posted March 11, 2009 By the way, the gearbox is Awesome. I want my Gemini even more now, ya git!! Glad to hear it's everything you expected, what's the rpm drop like between shifts? Should be much smaller than stock! You bastard, you've easily got the best spec'd and cleanest VR6 turbo (let alone Corrado) in the British Isles imo.... I'm not jealous :lol: Its a different car to drive, in a good way. Its just all come together so well , can't put it down to one thing. Its loads better then i expected, its so planted. The revs don't drop much, depends how quick you can shift :lol: Everything happens so quick :norty: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

zak 0 Posted May 24, 2009 wow, never seen you car in person but looks minty fresh from the pics. I must get my bro to final finish mine again so i can get a nice coat of zaino on it. As for the 7944, best head unit ever and imo is from the same era as the corrado so goes with the interior 8) I had one for years before i succumbed to mp3 and bluetooth so i now have a becker.
