[Rick 0]

Nice C Ed, BBS splits have been done a lot for a reason :wink:

yer i know cause they look the tits. playin with the car will wait till i get a few little things sorted out like that dent in the passenger wing and the front and rear bumpers need a respray also a couple of little niggles but nothing major. i dono what 60mm drop will look like on a 16 inch wheel but it wont look bad

Hi Mate,

what colour is it? look's like an 'electric blue'?

[Rick 0]

Dragon Green by the looks of it

[ejmgt 0]

yer dragon green, its my fav colour for the corrado. got a spare set of rear lights to tint all red with orig reverse lights left white. should be cool also got a 50mm inlet fully ported and polished with a knife edge and ported tb should give a little extra repsonce, will put pics up soon cause it has a broken bit on it and need to know if it will make n e diference

[ejmgt 0]

That is a nice colour mate. Ive never seen those wheels before and will look and handle even better for being lowered. I know what you mean about sorting out those 'little niggles' I picked up a g reg 16v in dec with just over 50 k on the clock, she looks a bit of a shed up close- parking dents galore but runs sweet.Im going to get the bodywork and respray done in the summer, - cant wait. 8) Were the pics taken on chobham common by any chance? In the carpark that overlooks the m3? looks familiar.

I love how the general public look at you when you take pictures of your own car as they must be thinking your selling it :lol:

 

Nice car mate - Bonza !!

thanks for the nice comments, erm yer it was exactly there in chobham its not to bad to for taking pictures.

 

i know what u mean about ppl looking at you, but i suppose ppl are nosey

 

i am warming ish to the wheels i might take them off and repaint then cause they dont look great, just dont have anouther set to put on while i do it which is always fun.

 

still missing my mk3 polos at the moe tho

just something about them i love

That brown sleeve is the injector shroud. The car will run fine, but I would get them replaced whilst the manifold is off. My injectors used to rattle around a bit which is a little worrying!

cheers buddy, one more question, any idea where to get them and how to get them out ?

[boost monkey 0]

they'll be pretty brittle by now, so you can prob use a hammer, mine shattered because they had got so hot.

 

I think it might be a VW part, but you might wanna check you can get replacements before you remove them.
