    Catch tanks

    Having browsed e-Bay and checked my engine bay I realised I was struggling to buy an off the shelf catch tank so have managed to spec a custom alloy oil catch tank for my reroute: one 19mm inlet top mounted breather mounting bracket 82mm diameter, 150mm height sight glass drain plug £35 plus delivery - really helpful contact and a bargain price

    G60 downpipe

    When mine was replaced by JMR it looked like it would be very difficult to do without removing inlet manifold - one of those jobs I'm glad someone else was doing
  4. There are absolutely no issues re: MOT, all the tester checks is alignment, it is a requirement for OE HID's to have high pressure washing and automatic level adjustment but this is not a requirement for aftermarket fitment. I have HID's in my Nugget and they are awesome, just white light, only downside is it makes main beam totally redundant now because the output is so much worse
  5. Early Coupes were 16V and 16V Turbo, later replaced with 20V and 20V Turbo
  6. What diameter tubing is required from the breather, I have the twin inlet system so need delete the boost return but want to vent in to a catch tank - don't want to buy one with the wrong bore though

    Eaton M62....

    ....been offered a used example with all pipework to allow a straight swap for the G-Lader - is it worth considering, I could have it for £200
  8. Looks nice. In terms of improving her I'd always recommend replacing bushes as a good starting point - it will make a big difference to the drive if they haven't already been done
  9. Tootled up to Blackpool to my my new wheels up and dropped them off in Blackburn for their refurb
  10. Heres one, decent size for £150 delivered http://url.the-corrado.net/9a1d42
  11. Just ordered mine too, gone for the standard airbox version, feel more comfortable with that setup
  12. Laptab look favourites at the moment, can lock this up now
  13. Cheers, want to get a proper job done on them and then make a decision as to whether I keep them, very different to the Voodoos I've got at the moment
  14. Just collected a nice set of LNS polished rims but they need a refurb - can anyone recommend anyone in the Midlands area - want to get them back to a mirror finish
  15. Looks good, suppose you need to have something to do whilst us English watch the football tournament that we are competing in :lol:
  16. Obviously not a UK market engine then as they were all autos weren't they?
  17. What gearbox would you mate it up to
  18. Had a few sets on various cars from http://www.autostyle.co.uk - always been very impressed with the quality - not cheap but they never needed replacing
  19. The Eos is a lot better looking in the metal than in photos, not a stunner but the best looking of the current crop of coupe convertibles
  20. Its rumoured a concept will be shown before the end of the year, seen so many different artists impressions that I'll think I'll leave it until I see the real thing
  21. No, just a "sporty" coupe - the deposit I paid is totally refundable if it does not get built but it guarantees me the first one at that dealer
  22. And I have a £500 deposit on one, lots of artists impressions floating around. I have heard its pencilled in for a Feb 2008 launch, launch engines will be a 170 BHP 1.4 and a 230 BHP 2.0 turbo, both FWD with a 4WD 3.6 to follow. Likely to be built in Portugal alongside the Eosand priced about £2lk above the equivalent Golf
  23. I nearly bought this before Scarlett did, seem to remeber it was living in Blackpool, lovely car but I'd set my heart on a G60
  24. I was training sales people today and they were drooling over my tatty old Aqua Blue G60, I know they wouldn't have been doing the same with a Calibra, its not that its a bad car more a case of the Corrado becoming a real modern classic
