Hello all

 

Are there any carrado owners in the Middlesex/Ealing/Southall/Hayes/Uxbridge/Hounslow area.

 

Are there any meetings being held or arranged?

 

Also are ther any mechanics well versed in the ways of the VR6 in the above area’s

Hi dav,

I live in Hayes, how about you ??

sorry guys.....just can't see the attraction with putting too wide wheels on the C....imo it looks so boy-racer/max power etc......and just doesn't suit the C's shape at all...............but then again i'm an old fart :lol:

Sorry guys but I don't like corrado in standard form ....... boy-racer around here have 7x17 under there arches... I never come across corsa with 9x16 et15

 

oh yes this is another pic of sukh's lovley blueslc !!! oh and how wide are those wheels ?? p.s they are the same width all round i think...

how you doing Darren?? yes they are 10x16 with ET-6 at the back and ET-2 at the front...

What surspension set up have you got bluslc?

H&R coilovers, with uprated springs..

Is my offset on the rear not right then? as its 25?

don't worry m8 you don't have to have same offset for front and back.

i am runing ET 0 at the front -6 at the back...

My 1990 1.8 16V doesn't like starting. Only had it since late march so it could be the increasing wet and cold combined with street parking.

 

Starter turns fine, occasionally starts immediately. When it does eventually start, it does so the moment I turn the key. Very occasionally as the starter is turning, the engine goes clunk and everything stops unitll I release the key and try again! Turning the alarm (Cat 1 Sigma) on and off again sometimes helps. Also very occasionally I can turn the key fully and nothing happens at all.

 

Wierd hey.

 

I've recently replaced the coil lead with a cool orange one from halfords (£2.50ish), as I was advised that this might help - it didn't.

 

Still think it is electrical tho.

 

Ideas?

Make sure you check your Earh lead first.. before you start replacing anything.

Alright mate nice looking mota you got there I had a good look at it at the south of england show at the aerodromea couple of months back it looks seriously phat with those 10's on it I'm supprised you dont get any rubbing on the arches.

Thanks mate !! what did you think of the show ?

we can do you a wiring loom mate mail order if you want? but make shure this is the problem first? mind you the uprated loom will make the headlights alot better than they are on all std corrados.

did you think anymore about selling your grill ?

let you know next week(GRILL)!! as you know i am on my way to essen...

i will call you about wiring loom once i have done few checks ..

thanks

Do you have high wattage bulbs fitted? If so then it is advisable to fit an uprated wiring loom.

If not, then check the wiring, fuses,etc. The switch runs a little hot anyway, but if have replaced 2 switches then something is wrong.

thanks Jon as far as i am concern i have standerd bulbs.

who sells uprated wiring loom in UK ??

Does any one know why on my corrado head lamp switch gets very hot or some one had similar problem ??

so far I have replaced two switches... :mad:

welcome mate ! how are you? i do love those 10"S mate...

p.s my rear arch's have now had a touch of "westside" ie there gone! :lol:

no rubbing now!

thankyou guys ..I am doing fine !! so have you lowerd you car any more then ??
