g0ldf1ng3r

thanks for the update, fingers crossed for you

worth mentioning that the Longlife has a lifetime warranty that goes with the exhaust itself rather than just to the original purchaser

no problem at all m8 it was £400 in total but that was in Feb 2015 more info, pics & 2 videos here http://the-corrado.net/showthread.php?44751-g0ldf1ng3r-s-VR6-amp-1-8-16V/page7&highlight=g0ldf1ng3r i really need to do a new video to capture the burbles i can get when slowing & downshiftingm they are very addictive lol FYI it took them over 7 hours to fabricate it, any other questions let me know :)

give Longlife a call - i love the system they custom fabricated on my VR :D good price too, at the time, for a 2.5" SS with hiflow cat from the bottom of downpipe back there are pics & videos on my build thread if you want to see & hear

excellent thank you & very much appreciated

hi Dave sorry i didnt see your post yesterday - did you put it on FB as well as ive posted the info to someone there this morning the info was on my build thread, copy here for you "looking at the ford invoice it shows 7364573 & was £32.50+vat" that price was from 2009

about 3 hours according to a route map, so yes quite a bit shorter than yourself do you mind divulging what the repair costs were for the wings pls?

thanks for this - although they are a long way away i may give them a call about the VR annoyingly they local, old friend person i spoke to hasnt replied to any txts in the past month...grrr

finding them is an issue, as in finding a replacement VW discontinued them & Heritage dont have them ive seen somewhere in the US advertising them but no idea on their fitment or quality - http://www.vintagerubber.com/CorradoRearHatchGlassSeal.aspx AFIK the rear screen rubber is not bonded to the glass, which the rear quarter window rubbers are, & from what ive researched it depends on the skill of the person you use to remove/refit glass as to it they can remove the window & rubber such that it can be reused Pls do let me know your findings as i am preparing for paint on my VR

morning on the VR i run a VT mount on the front engine mount, not sure which one though but think not the race version i put OE mounts on the rear engine mounts & both g/b mounts as IIRC VT's can make it too stiff & cause cabin noise (im pretty sure i read that info on here at some point but was a long time ago) AFIK the only R32 bushes recommended on here are for the front wishbone bushes, other running gear bushes are better on OE

this has always been my point with electric cars plus where are they going to get all the electricity needed to charge these cars - at present, from fecking fossil fuels which really defeats the objective it is all a con & cleaner, greener & even zero point energies have been suppressed by governments & the elite for decades you only have to look to Tesla, no not the jumped up car manf, but the man himself who was 'surprisingly' killed whilst developing free wireless energy around 100 years ago which, if you are unaware, a US school kid has managed to prove zero point energy works - http://www.wakingtimes.com/2016/05/18/13-year-old-invents-tesla-inspired-free-energy-device-for-under-15/

odd that flux wouldnt budge did you give them a more competitive quote from somewhere else to beat? i ask that as ive been with flux for many many years & every year they beat any better quote i get

give it a bit of time & someone will pick this up for you

brilliant! do it m8 & post his reply worth asking why his prices are so high too ;) lol

ahhh im with you now - i did wonder when i looked at the other link you posted oh, ive just creamed now!! lol i thought it was a 993 GT2 - ive got asperger's & one of my skills of that means i can recognise many many vehicles by just small odd angles & features is the gulf livery one with the boot lid open to the right of the CTR the 993? IIRC the 993 & 996 version GT2's had different rear wings - ive always liked the triangular type openings on the 993 version :D do you know if it was true that they fed the air into the turbo's? & when can i book in to come see you & these glorious motors pls, pretty pls? ;)

WHOA - that is more major than i thought!! you dont see many RUF pokers let alone one of that nature how id love a go in that! FYI the 993 GT2 is one of my top 3 motors :D

geeba is that a 993 GT2 in the background in gulf livery!!?? the rear spoiler & arch flares look like it is

ahh i see never seen those before

ive got one fella but it would take more than 1k to part with it ;)

ahh i thought it was the bits that clipped on to the outside of the screen this was the kit: item 535-845-100 windscreen moulding trim set £47.58

have you tried VW Heritage? i brought a front windscreen kit only a couple of weeks back but it is not on their website

great news graham - really pleased it is working out for you & yes be careful with your rev range on that freshly rebuilt bottom end out of interest, did they re-hone the block too? 37 on the mfa is good & about average if you drive the VR lazily - it always makes me laugh the way new car manf's go on about 45mpg etc when we can get very close to that with our 20 year old motors ;)

very tidy! that figure is now making me think about another map to take advantage of my exhaust lol the difference in power delivery is superb isnt it :) yup big brakes help - i am loving my new HiSpec Billet 4's! a world away from OE front brakes

thanks those 2 pics were from the 1st time i owned it paint work is now a little battered but it was still my old car when i got it back

indeed m8 - it shifted to white being everywhere on new cars a couple of years ago ive always loved the rado in white, it was one of the reasons i brought my valver back after parting with it for a few years - that & the ultra rare Kamei kit ;) lol
