ive got my front brakes sorted.

340mm x 30mm discs fit nicely behind the 17" bbs rc, they look really good with the rears

there is no spacer (the wheel is the standard corrado offset) eventually i might have to put on a 1mm or 2mm spacer just to be safe.

340mm :)

 

what car are they came from ?? 4 stud ??

nope its a 5 stud disc machined to 4 stud

my front caliper brackets arrived

 

 

the hose for pluming the engine

 

 

i bought a inter-cooler pipe from a bmw 7 series. it cost a fortune but well worth because it just clips onto my inter-cooler(bmw) and goes around the end of the rad perfectly

 

 

test fitting the hose

 

 

i took the alloy pipe out of the bmw hose and made up my own out of 2,5" stainless pipe. all my inter-cooler pipes made

 

 

fitted in the car

 

 

then i put a lambda sensor in my down pipe

ok so finally got a chance to do some more work on the corrado

 

all the parts for my brake system

 

and a bias adjuster to stop the 4 pots on the rear locking up

 

i mounted the bias adjuster on the bulkhead behind the heat shield

 

all my bits arrived back from the platers, no gay chrome just the proper original finish

This really will be one of the finest rado's when its finished i think :clap: envy the time and space u have, Quality work keep the updates comin 8)

[20vturbo 0]

i installed my kw v3's

 

 

 

i have all the brake pipes made

 

 

 

 

ive started chopping up my bumper to make room for the intercooler

 

 

i got a set of 17" bbs rc's off geo, i love them and the have plenty of room for the large stoppers

Awesome, looking like its all really starting to come together :clap:

Those 17's RC's i love, they look more like 18's to me, maybe its because the big brakes, windows, bumper etc missing and not bein fully lowered ...

anyway keep up the good work 8)
