  1. I await your advertisement with full spec and price. Only thing that worries me is the front seats that don't look like they tilt and I need use of back seats.
  2. Dunno which fuse you need but I'd double check them all and make sure no hairline cracks. I had one on my light fuse and it drove me mad as lights would work with the fuse box out but when I refitted they wouldn't. The fuse looked intact.
  3. Same your not a little nearer for a look.
  4. Got this for sale/swaps [ATTACH=CONFIG]84144[/ATTACH]
  5. Shame you don't have a VR6 to swap, lol.
  6. If anyone is wondering, they work quite well at rinsing off wheels that have first been sprayed with wheel cleaner and agitated with a brush. After cleaning my wheels I put some soap in the gun and sprayed/sponged the car down, then rinsed the soap off. Unlike a mains jet wash is doesn't hurt if you aim at bare skin so don't expect it to clean anything without agitating with a sponge or brush. I'm sold on it and found it much better that carting buckets of water outside.
  7. Presume your asking me so.....KR cams are supposed to give up to 15 bhp, but it's all about how it drives and it certainly lets her breath much better and pull harder. The 50mm adds to the top end and again is supposed gain 9 bhp, but at the expense of some lost torque - I didn't notice the lack of torque despite living in "flat" Yorkshire but noticed how the power from 4k was much more. As you can see from my signature, the car also has a K&N (no noticeable difference), has been chipped (increased driveability) and has a full jetex (resonated) system with decat (helps the breathing but isn't stupid loud). I don't care what the total bhp is as it's how all about how she now drives for me. The mods haven't badly affected the mpg either and I always see an average of 30, often get 40 on the motorway and for example got 35 on today's run in (12 miles, 1/2 moors, 1/2 traffic and queues) Shame your not a bit nearer as you could have a go.
  8. In my head I'll look like a ghost-buster but others definitely see things differently :)
  9. That repair to the sunroof looks like a factory option.
  10. After some internet trawling I found out that Kleer, Sealey, Milo and Aquasomethingorother are all the same unit. Bought a Sealey of Ebay for £103 next day delivered. Reviews suggest it's power is something like a hose pipe. I liked the idea in can be filled with warm water and has a shower attachment so I can wash the dog. I also like the shoulder strap which mean if we ever have a summer, the kids are going to loose badly at any water fight.
  11. Whilst my garage has electricity, it doesn't have a water supply and saw a post on FB from a Corrado owner who had a portable pressure washer which got me wondering. Obviously it's not going to have the power of a plug in type, but has anyone on here has used one and if so what sort of results? The one I'm looking at is like this, but can be had for about £100 on Ebay - http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/performance/cleaners/sealey-pressure-washer-12v-rechargeable-pw1712
  12. done the cams and added a 50mm intake and it's a different beast. Also fitted leather for the hot summer days that we see so many of.
  13. I often wonder about what I'm missing with a VR (other than noise) and if there was one for sale that took my fancy, then I possibly would sell the valver but then again.
  14. Gold fella, it's what I would do with a red car. CAS coatings will powercoat them at £1 per inch
  15. Here's hoping the carbon fibre bike parts I posted yesterday don't get broken. If they do they'll obviously be home décor items and nothing to do with a motorbike.
  16. Not sure it'll work without separate butterflies as you partially block the intake with the black cone part, which obviously won't block if the other is open to atmosphere. You can give if a go if I find it. I'll have a rummage in the garage over the weekend.
  17. £10K, it would have to be attached to some fantastic Corrado for me to pay that for a reg.
  18. Just been on DLVA private plates and could buy M22 POG for £250....if only a 2 was missing.
  19. I may have one of these in my garage still if you want it. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Carb-Balancer-Carburettor-Balancing-Tool-With-Flow-Carbalancer-fits-most-carbs-/180748349770?hash=item2a1570f14a:m:msFffbqox0zmocZe5BIvwQw Crude but worked on my twin carb MGB. Guess it will only work if each of your air inlet trumpets have a separate butterfly.
  20. Special internet pressed plates ;)
  21. Though I'd share a picture of my car this morning where it looked nice parked outside my office. Shame my phone took a rubbish photograph. [ATTACH=CONFIG]84050[/ATTACH]
  22. Run mine as a daily and my partner often moans about the running/maintenance costs (which aren't that high) so I point out her £1000 a year depreciation, to which she points out my 15 plate BMW motorcycle - touché. This thread should have included how long owned, how many miles and how many breakdowns.
