too hot 0 Posted November 11, 2013 Cool old girl and worth the saving for retro rarity value if nothing else. I love those wheels and searched for ages trying to get them for a number of Vw`s over the years but never managed it!!! Personally I don't like them in satin black they seem to lose the detail( it might just be the angle in the pic) Silver would be my first choice. Keep up the good work Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

StueyB 0 Posted November 28, 2013 Loving the Nothelle quirky-ness. A friend has a set of these wheels in 16's and we put them on an 8v I had for a while. Instantly went from hating the design to loving it. I've found bold, striking wheel designs tend to compliment the Corrado's shape way more than expected. Will upload pic later as the hosting ability seems to be down. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wbx6dan 10 Posted December 1, 2013 I had a go with the Tezet manifold today! The manifold fitted fantastically (no fouling on the steering knuckle/boot) however the inlet manifold needs some shaving mainly on no4 port!! I suppose as it is a large bore tuned pipe its logical that some trimming is in order so still not fitted plus i need some new seals for my green top injectors! anyone know where to get some? vag heritage? main dealers? Thanks stuey B i fell in love with them the first time i saw a set in 1986 at bug jam i also remember that red t25 of bernard newburys with all those speakers in my lasting memories :snipersmile: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wbx6dan 10 Posted February 6, 2014 Its official 200+bhp on the rolling road but backed off for use due to leaning out at top end Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coullstar 0 Posted February 6, 2014 Keep the inserts black on the wheels but the face body coloured. Black doesnt show of the details and I think gloss black would show less due to the relfections etc. I too love them for their quirky look. Ive seen 17in 5x100 versions before.

wbx6dan 10 Posted February 8, 2014 I believe its a 91 /92 /93 /89/90 he he he Think i might have to pass on the two tone wheels had a mk2 zephyr one that was cool but i agree the color doesnt do them justice. Managed to get her out for a spin yesterday before the weather set in again and very pleasing pulls and pulls and pulls but tram lines something rotten and the h&r springs are 250 70a's feel to hard what do you lot run? the tyres are 215/49 16 yokis which wont help either now i like a stiff ride but christ i must be getting old thinking of 200 springs and some 50 series tyres?
