Wompa's VW Motorsport Corrado VR6

Recommended Posts

Thanks guys... and girls :norty:

 

I have got alitle scraping from the rear tyres when i go on a bumb... im going to raise it in the back, but on the front the height is just right! It cant be to low, just to high!

It feels great with the new suspension and tyres but it needs a wheel alignment to be perfect... Out of cash at the moment so it have to wait.

 

I was expecting more comments... does everyone else hate the Venoms maybe?

 

Here is a picture a friend made for me... just to show off :grin:

I like the number plate, is that the actual plate?

 

(Hopefully this wont get me banished from the forum) I think it may look slightly better with it raised at the back slightly raised, a small bit of rake is always nice.

 

I also love the black in the engine - looks mean.

Im thinking absolutly the same as you about the rear. As soon as I can i will raise it a bit... the tires have got some marks from the chassie.

 

The numberplate is edited by a friend... why, i dont know :)

 

As soon I get some cash I will buy some stuff for the Corrado, you will se! :norty:

If you guys want I cant put up allt the other photos from the Bugrun Pick nick, its not 100% Corrados, not even 10%.. Its alot of Beetles and Camper vans.

 

Is there any English Corrado that will join us a Bugrun this year?

Today I removed the front seats so I could clean a bit more than before... Found about 1kg of glas from a breakin that a previous owner had... :(

 

Used some cleaning foam to really clean the carpets and I think they got a bit brighter look.

 

Before:

AFTER!

And when I looked under one of the Recaro seats... I found that the seats has two electric sockets... Why?? Is it for heated seats??? Then, if it got that IM REALLY GONNA GET HEATED SEATS!!! :clap:

Please tell me that so is the case? Its the only think I can think of that they are. But the two brown cables above the sockets... what are they for?

Im not 100% but i think the Corrado OEM Recaros are indeed heated.

 

We were denied the Recaro's here in the US though. I do know the power bases are slide and height adjutable but if they are plugged into only one of the harnesses, then yes they might be power.

 

And here in the US Venoms were known to us as VX1's. Classic wheel. :D

Im going to look after the cables that are missing... wouldnt be so difficult :nuts:

 

The Venoms, they fit like a glove!!! Alittle more stretch and less profile and its perfect!

 

Craig: I use can paint :) Just remove it all and paint :clap:

About the shiny stuff... It isnt hard if you want to do it! Takes a while but totally worth it!

This wall is having a makeover, dont mind the cracks... I think they will dissapear when I use leather conditioner or something...

I totally agree!! The Black Leather interior is really nice!

The best would be the beige interior :nuts:

 

Thanks for that, now I only need the cables to the heater... Hmm :|
