I know Jake and can provide a contact number however I'm pretty sure he's taken a deposit for the car. Drop me a line if you want the number regardless.

As title really. iPhone bumper in black. In original box. Used like twice and decided I didn't like the look. Currently £26.00 plus p&p on the Apple store. Price: £20 + postage. Pic of actual item:

Am about to throw the one i mentioned above away. Do you want it...?
-
Just had a look on Wagenstad.com for you and annoyingly they only provide a part number for the complete rear bumer with bar & brackets. However i've just taken a bumper to pieces so can check on the bar and brackets themselves if required..?

As title really. After a good condition front splitter reinforcement bar. Part number : 535 807 181 Appear to be the same across all ages of Corrado and is used to bolt the splitter to the front bumper. Have bent mine after a brush with a high curb so am looking for a solid (non bent/cracked) replacement. Cash waiting. Regards, Stu

Tis the one, thanks anyway.

Front lower splitter bar...?

Need a little more information chap for example. Model: Assuming Corrado Engine: 8v, 16v, G60, VR6...?

A little rare on this side of the pond my friend. I'd stretch your wings a little wider to find them.

I agree that £220 seems a lot for a bolt on flywheel and i'm sure its produced for a fraction of that cost over in China but when you compare it to say the Fidanza item - around the £400 mark (from what i can find) and post import cost of the Lightweight SPTurbo equivalent it seems like a good option to me given personal experience of performance on my brothers VR6. On the subject of why pay £220 vs £100, I'm personally not keen on taking a 15+ year old flywheel and chomping it down. I'm sure in theory and practice its absolutely fine but its just my personal preference. When it comes to engine components I'd rather bolt something on that has been made for the job rather than modify a standard part.

An alternative is the HotTuing VR6 lightened flywheel. My brother has one of these in his MK3 Golf and i was seriously impressed by the performance increase after fitting. I originally turned my noise up at it due to the brand but the item that turned up was extremely good quality, not a cheap aluminum item but chrome / molybdenum alloy. Not missed a beat in 20k+ of driving and is now under supercharger'd pressures aswell. Currently priced @ £229.00 which i think is very good value for money.

Corrado Sunroof mech in good working order - or repair kit - or moonroof.

Great stuff Keith, Could you drop me some contact details via pm and i will pass them on to my friend Drew. I'm pretty sure its a done deal on these as its exactly what he is after. He tried to get on the forum last night after I'd contacted him about the bases but he's not on here much and due to the forum switchover I don't think his account has been re-activated etc... -

Hey dude, Do you still have both seat bases..? If so, got a mate who's interested in them. Regards, Stu -
Just to confirm they are welded in. I have a spare bracket which was carefully removed from a breaker kicking about if anyone is interested. Don't want the earth for it.

Been getting these for a number of weeks, at first only the odd one but I've logged in today and i've got another 5 waiting for me. Sometimes Visitor messages, sometimes random for sale items. Tis a little annoying as I've just missed a geniune PM amongst 'the junk'. Not a rant, just a little on the annoying side. Cheers, Stu

In my experience the magnex gives the best sound for the buck. All other aftermarket system's i've heard give the VR that nasty low end "farty" sound. What i like most about the Magnex experience is that coupled with a decat you get race-car sound effects yet simply remove the decat (i.e. come MOT time) and you've got nie on O.E spec exhaust note and emissions. Win Win in my book and i'm almost two years down the exhaust owning crib sheet.

Guys & Girls, Apologises for the delay in updating this group buy thread. I'm afraid due to increased work commitments and supplier issues which I will explain shortly this group buy has ground to a halt. Partly my fault (for which I apologise) and partly 3rd party fault. Upon placing my order with the overseas supplier after gaining 50 orders on here I was informed they were having supplier issues and would be back in contact once resolved. They got back in contact to explain they changed supplier to resolve the issue and sent me out a new sample pair. The new sample pair unfortunately do not fit like OEM examples and so consequently I'm not happy to proceed with the order. I am waiting to here their response on this matter and I will pursue. A real shame I'm sure you'll agree, but I'm sure you'll appreciate ordering items to don't fit very well if even at all is a pointless exercise. Will aim to post up any further news promptly. Again my apologises for the delay on this and hope to resolve the supplier issues shortly. Stu

My bro is right in the middle of his V9 supercharger conversion, will be seeing him later so will have a word. I know for a fact he's spent some time adjusting various things with regards the pulley setup to get the belt to run perfectly true. Will get some pics later and an explanation for you.
