ProdigalSon 1 Posted July 3, 2008 Yeah, I noticed that as well, isn't the normal scale out of 5 and if you financially contribute you get a sixth too? I guess 6 is 'one brighter' than everyone else... (Spinal Tap, anyone?) That's how it happens. Have you notice the BBC iplayer goes up to 11? :lol: :clap: Our consoles do it too!

was8v 0 Posted July 4, 2008 Can you get a picture of a front wishbone rear bush please. My new one has come with holes in it and I'm not sure if thats correct? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toad 0 Posted July 4, 2008 Can you get a picture of a front wishbone rear bush please. My new one has come with holes in it and I'm not sure if thats correct? 4 equidistantly spaced holes in the rubber between the outside and inside? If so, that is correct.

was8v 0 Posted July 4, 2008 Ah ok, mine looks just like this, so I am now re-assured. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boost monkey 0 Posted July 4, 2008 Once you line them up, you will see the big hole is to let you access the vertical subframe bolts for what I call the subframe wings (the bits which go up into the chassis rail either side \_/) The other holes are just from manufacturing: you don't need metal in those areas for the wishbone to retain all of it's strength though :salute: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bcstudent 0 Posted July 4, 2008 You're talking about the metal part, but he's talking about the rubber bush. I would say that we have the holes in the wishbone comprehensively covered. Good job! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dirtytorque 0 Posted July 4, 2008 Yes, I too enjoy combining my "hobbies" of messing around with Corrados and dogging. yeah but a lowered vw coupe is a poor choice in dogging vehicle... I would have thought. :norty: Ahh.. So P'son,thats why your were cringing at my thread pics. I will have to take more care as I see its a subject close to your heart. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ProdigalSon 1 Posted July 4, 2008 Talking of bell ends (well, bell housings) - could you get a cool pic of the VW logo on the bottom of the gearbox? :) New avatar material? 8) I'll just need someone to lift the car up and hold it at a 60 degree angle... :lol: Yes, can get a pic, but will need to get a mirror angled under there so that jacks and stands won't be required :salute: A daylight job methinks. Tadaa! 2.8l 24v Climatronic system.pdf_DSC9063 crop.jpg[/attachment:byd65giv] And here's how it was done: _DSC9063.jpg[/attachment:byd65giv] Next? :lol: :nuts: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ProdigalSon 1 Posted July 5, 2008 Good effort :clap: Its cleaner than mine is I'm sure. I was surprised how clean it was, but suddenly thought 'perhaps I should give it a quick brush' - after the pics were taken :roll: Would make a good avatar like this: 8) _DSC9063 avatar.jpg[/attachment:1ut9ef38] Trying to think of other Corrado specific emblems that would make good abstract avatars... :scratch: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boost monkey 0 Posted July 5, 2008 That's not corrado specific, I think Mk2 boxes have that plate on the bottom too. Good picture though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No smart*rse ones like 'yeah, I'd like a pic of the mixture burning inside a cylinder' :lol: why, scared of a challenge huh huh ?? What about some non standard car angle shots. Most of the cars taken on here are from pretty standard angles. Maybe some different perspectives? The challenge is set. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ProdigalSon 1 Posted July 6, 2008 Hmmm... like lying on the other side of a hump-back bridge and taking underside shots of a C flying over it at speed? :grin: :lol: Thinking of which, are there any proper rally Corrados (without the 'e', that is)? That would be seriously cool :shades: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
