Yandards' 16VG60 - Running Report 23 Jul 15
g0ldf1ng3r replied to Yandards's topic in Members Gallery
again, cracking info thank you im currently running standard calipers with EBC USR disc & green stuff pads all round & thinking of going for the red stuff pads next time the hispec sound like a good option to get better braking but retain the speedlines - I have no idea when I could stretch funds to bigger wheels to fit brembo's for example -

tidy! thank you kindly for your replies 1 last if I may - how do you find them in comparison to the old standard brake setup? -

sorry, I did mean just the size of the rotor in terms of standard ive had a look at their site & can see they do options for rotor size have you any idea if when using a 280mm rotor they will fit behind 15" speedlines? -

good feedback thanks dragon did you increase rotor diameter or do they fit onto standard size VR discs? -

many thanks Yan I will keep this info in mind. I keep seeing hispec pop up quite often & wheeler dealers had some made & fitted to one of the cars they did -
drop daves16v a PM in the supplier section & see if he has any built & ready sometimes he has one or two in stock with a decent dremel it shouldn't take long to fit & it makes a very positive improvement in gear selection

sorry m8 I couldn't resist the question / tease lol good man though, im sure it will be fun taking anything down the strip have you got a short shifter fitted so as to avoid any possible 2nd to 3rd issues? lol

VR6 Aux Water Pump Question (when should it be running..)

morning jim - mine was as per chris' post also -
VR6 Aux Water Pump Question (when should it be running..)
g0ldf1ng3r replied to Jim's topic in Engine Bay
that is a good question Jim I have never tried the sequence you mention but I can not see any logic in the aux pump only running on the first turn of the key after reconnecting the battery as you say I thought it would always run if ignition is on or if the engine temps tell it to after use & the key is removed I am in the VR today so can not test straight away but I can do so when I swap the cars over when I get home tonight & let you know I have the feeling for needing some decent power on the way to work tomorrow lol -
ouch ive just gone all queasy!!
-
thanks Tan seriously I have all fingers & toes crossed for you! I kinda watched this build happen as it was being done at stealth whilst mine was there
-
ahhh so plans are being made, good man!! if my VR & valver had a few things completed on them then they would have been advertised. my gf was telling me to buy it, buy it now lol after many hours pondering it is not the right time at all for me & it would be a daily - which im a tad unsure about if it would be very feasible. very sad I am :( lol
-
again, personally, I use event tires online as they are extremely well priced & they fit at your work or home however, I do also know that lots of people here use Mr Lobitos. send him a PM & he will reply with options. only issue is you then have to take them somewhere for fitting oh & PS - bagsie 1st passenger ride at our meet when it happens!! lol
-
have you news to share Tan? I saw your PM post ;) hope you have! I thought long & hard about if I could or not personally I would always go with a bridgestone m8 but then I don't do any track stuff seriously good in the dry & have strong side walls which lots of other tires dont
-
what an absolute raving C O C K !!!!

event tires are also well priced & fit at your work or home

every day is a school day! I didn't take german all those years ago but chuggs you are indeed correct blackberry in german is Brombeere im glad I can just call it blackberry now lol
-
I think it depends where you look Jim Apologies I misspelt, it is Brombeer metallic this forum paint code page lists Blackberry Metallic* ---------------------LK4Z --------------------94 - 95 * = Bramble to VW but if you google search for the LK4Z paint code it comes up as Brombeer http://www.paintscratch.com/touch_up_paint/Volkswagen/1994-Volkswagen-Corrado-Bromberr-Metallic-Clearcoat-LK4Z-S4.html If you go to Halfords for example & ask for paint code LK4Z they list it as Brombeer also, I know this as I brought a small amount there a long time ago & they mix it there & then for you
