Saw it today paintwork on it looks immaculate very jealous

Right then had a majorly big list for D&G Autotech to get through when i brought it in VT Mounts. Road Mounts all round. Jetex Exhaust Injectors ultrasonically cleaned Mk4 Rear brakes, bearings, pads etc Wavetrac Diff fitted Gearbox stripped and rebuilt DG Fan kit. Brackets and fans all wired up Wheel alignment Front suspension. Rebuild New ball joints, rod end, rods, front wheel bearings etc New CV joints, boots etc. New aux water pump So dropped it in Dave took it for a quick spin and everything seemed fine got out had a took under the bonnet and Dave revved the engine and there was a nasty rattle noise coming from the chain area. I knew it couldnt have been the chains as they had been done approx 2/3 years earlier so left it with them to investigate this is what was causing all the noise A bolt had sheered the one that the tensioner pad sits on left a nice impression According to Dave i was a lucky boy as if that had run loose and got inbetween the chains bye bye engine phew So to add to the list above mk4 items and genuine items we used so mk4 tensioner pad etc Anyway pics of the rest of the work Exhaust Gauges Mk4 rears Track rods etc Mounts Gearbox right had a few probs with the Arp bolts but all worked out in the end diff installed, new first gear cog needed replacing and main shaft Anyway all worked out in the end and the Diff is fantastic you can really push it through them corners now :D Big thanks to Dave and Graham amazing blokes wouldnt even consider taking the storm any where else now :D Jon

Going to be picking her up tomorrow the old girl has had a lot of work done by the masters that are Dave and Graham, cant contain my excitement will post complete progress pics when i get her back tomorrow :D

Lovely 8)

Looks great cheers for prices

How much was the new stuff fella??

Youve got to remember that Dave and Graham want the car to be perfect when it leaves if it takes more time to finish so be it, i would rather it be right first time than keep taking it back, im itching to get my raddo back though

Haha there were 7 when i dropped mine off

Mid weekish for me all going well

this helped me ignore the american side indicators though http://www.corrado-club.ca/mods/bumper.html

the engine can stay in to do the chains think just the gearbox has to come off to give access might be wrong though :ignore:

Mines in but have yet to drive so cant comment looking forward to the drive back from kidderminster though :D

and there was me thinking twilight violet was a rare colour :D

Yeah would love to see what the superchargers like as im either going SC or Turbo eventually may change my mind though and keep it like it is :D

Dunno mate i said take as long as you need, gearbox is fully rebuilt so thats going in Monday will have to see

Will do fella ive gone for the 3 box system so should sound almost OEM, think im looking forward to getting the feeling back through the steering wheel felt rather loose and not like i was at one with the car :D

1.Same colour as the car 2. Unsure 3. Yes 4. silver i presume that quickly deteriorate

thanks Jon hows yours doing heard you may need new tensioner on chains? Yeah a guide bolt had come loose, well had sheared but luckily didnt get caught in the chains or anything, mk4 replacement being put in :D

Its a gorgeous colour i was the one that recommended the missus buy one in that colour 8)

Good stuff mate :D 8)
