David Winter 0 Posted March 4, 2004 Hi guys. Had today off and took the chance to clean up my filthy Corrado. it was covered in salt spray etc from the recent cold snap. Spent the day on it and was chuffed with the results. You appreciate it more when its cleaned up after being so bad. Hope to see some of you guys Sunday.

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted March 4, 2004 That's a lovely example and mint! Glad you haven't put a towbar on it for lugging that boat around :-) Mine is still covered in winter grime and it'll be staying that way until the ambient temperature reaches at least 10 deg! I'm a fairweather car cleaner :-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Robch 0 Posted March 5, 2004 That looks spot on mate! :shock: Thats exactly what I'd say was the perfect drop for a C on standard 15's. Definately a beauty! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jedi-knight83 0 Posted March 5, 2004 very nice!! i love the black leather, sometimes more than the beige leather i have....mine just shows up all the dirt :( so what is the drop? what springs / shocks etc? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted March 5, 2004 Mint! Just goes to show that a Corrado doesn't need anything more than a subtle suspension drop to make it look soooo good :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

G60Dan 0 Posted March 5, 2004 I really do like that!! 8) I didn't evey really like the std look of the corrado, but you have won me over there. Just lowered enough, if I was ever to change to another corrado it would be just as yours is! :thumbleft: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
David Winter 0 Posted March 7, 2004 Thanks for your comments guys. All I have done is replaced the original equipment dampers top mounts and bump stops with new original equipment ones and combined this with Eibach 30mm drop lowering springs. The car is still practical to drive with no worries getting over speed humps etc. With the original 15in wheels the ride is still nice. There is no slaming down pot holes or any problems of that nature. It is obviously firmer than the original springs but feels more sporty. It is the only mod Ive have done and I dont intend to do anything else. Cheers. Dave. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DaveStorm 0 Posted March 7, 2004 Nice to meet you earlier at the AGM Dave, your car looks even better in the flesh, the ride height is spot on I reckon. 8) Just hope the weather is better next time I see it though! Regards, Dave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
David Winter 0 Posted March 8, 2004 Cheers mate. It was good to meet you too. I drove slowly down the motorway hoping to hook up a convoy on the way back but guess you got held up. Ill try and catch up with you at one of the shows. Take it easy. Dave. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
