[G60Dan 0]

Here's a few pic's of my G60:

 

 

 

 

 

Here's one from the Corrado NationalDay in the show & shine

 

Spec:

Long Life custom exhaust with de-cat pipe

G-werks S4 Charger

Jabba Chip & 68mm pulley

Jabba induction kit

G-werks boost return kit

 

Weitec Coilover height adjustable suspension

17" AEZ Paron Alloys

Arches were professionally rolled when it had it's respray 2 years ago

Front bumper has been plastic welded to be flush, this was also done 2 years ago, & still looks mint

3 slat badgeless grill

side trim has also been taken off alone with all badges front & rear

 

Uprated the headlight wiring loom last month - Wow! What a difference!

 

Anyone have an idea about an estimated power out put? She is fairly even with my mates std storm if that helps.

Looks lovely... I really like those wheels, they compliment the smooth look really well... :D I've always preferred the earlier bonnet, makes the front of the car seem lower and slightly squarer and more agressive IMHO... 8)

 

The no side repeaters is a nice touch too, makes the side look much less cluttered... :)

 

With those mods I'd estimate between 180 and 190 BHP, although if it's a nice loose engine, you could be up near 200... :D Time to put her on a rolling road and find out! :lol:

Thanks lads, appreciate the comments,

I forgot about the side repeaters, I'm so used to looking at it without them I forget they were there.

 

Yeah that's about what I thought. I'm hoping to get a bigger intercooler in the near future, will get it on the rollers once I have that sorted & it's been in Jabba for a service & a set up.

Dan, I love your car mate, what kind of eyebrow spoiler is it? Do you know?

[Bally 0]

Brain, I asked Dan about the eyebrow b4, it was already fitted on the car :D

EXCELLENT!!! wheres that welder.....:?

Was already done when I got it mate. I can only assume the wing ether came with out the indicator holes or a plate was welded on the back of the wing & it's been filled.

 

Cheers Bally

Can someone please email me about this headlight wiring loom as my headlights are next to s..t.

Very nice car, I've always wanted a G60 but had to settle for a 1.8 16V to start with until I win the lottery :0)

[G60Dan 0]

Morpheus Cheers matey

 

Regarding the lights - go to http://corrado.atx-hosting.co.uk/viewto ... highlight=

 

Banana Man will be able to sort you out I should think

Here's a few more:

 

Close up of the wheels

 

Here she is at Jabba waiting to be chipped

 

HOW LOW!!

 

Here's my C with my old RS Turbo

[Bally 0]

I love your car matey :D

 

bet your glad to have it after the RS...?

[G60Dan 0]

Yes & no, I did love the RS they are wicked cars, but aren't realiable cars when your stick extra 70 horses under the bonnet. It was the biggest money pit!! It was forever costing me. It's nice having a bit of money & a nice car at the moment. I would have another one in a few years to come, but only as a project/weekend/summer car.

[Bally 0]

I no what you mean about a money pit, mate of myns been building an S2 which he's spent £3.5k which doesn't include the £2k he paid for it :roll: plus it still ain't on the road yet! 2.1 zetec turbo though :D

 

As for the C, I'm glad I've finally got one :D

 

I want a old RS1600i oneday as a show car, one of me favourites..

 

Anyway, we best stick to VW chat, someone may read this & get upset :lol:

[morpheus20170 0]

I wonder which car people prefer in that line up, lol.

That is really cruel, putting more photos of your car up, esp a close up of those lovely wheels, I was envious enough after the first photos.

Cheers for the help with the wiring loom, still trying to find out about it and if it is worth the money spent, 16vg60 has been saying that he has a loom without crimping or something, proper connectors?

G60Dan,

 

I really like that smooth bumper you've got, do you know how much roughly it would cost to get a number plate recess filled?

 

Is that a smaller number plate you've got on the front?, do u ever get any hassle from the law about it, does it pass an mot like it?

I haven't a clue how much it would cost to get this done I'm afraid. A previous owner had it done. However, I do know the guy that actually carried out the work, worked in a TVR body shop, so he was a plastic welding specialist (as TVR's are predominantly plastic/fibre glass) Other than buying some kind of aftermarket bumper, this is probably going to be the best way to have it done. I don't think just filling would last more than a few years before it started to look a bit ropey.

 

I haven't had any problems from the plod as yet, a mate of mine owned the car for over a year, he didn't have any problems ether & MOT's all went fine. I'm still a bit cautious when driving about.

Here she is a couple of weeks ago down in Bognor

[G60Dan 0]

don't I'm going all :oops:

 

Cheers mate

 

Will have to sort some interior/engine ones out this weekend I think

[G60 0]

looks great. the filled license plate recess and front wings come stock just like you have them on canadian cars. we have no number plate recess and the side markers are in the bumper (i shaved those though..and i have euro side repeaters in the euro location).
