gutted...reminded me of my aqua blue corrado last year. Its that colour i think...won't be touching it again, i think i'll stick to black. Well i hope all works out for you and your back in another again, and good luck breaking the car too...Sanj.

just spoke to vince at stealth...he recommends the stand VR clutch from GSF...LUK or whatever...it'll do the job, so thanks guys...search is over for the time being.. Also got a qoute on a Helix Clutch for £280 from them i think minus VAT.
-
what make is this standard kit? and would it be able to cope with the power... I'd buy a black diamond clutch, but have heard the friction plate is just OE and the rest is too strong that it breaks... No-one has a Sachs clutch in their VR? Sorry Tom...haven't been on the forum much recently and didn't realise. Sanj.

Anyone know where I could buy a Sachs powerclutch or a standard sachs clutch from?? I've been on a number of sites...stealth racing are busy at the min and i can't ask vince there. I need the clutch for a 20vt engine, and i've been qouted £431 by triple 8 performance (sachs dealer) for a clutch kit. GSF no longer do them apparently, which is what i was told at both the daventry and coventry branches...unless steve can tell me otherwise :cry: If anyone know of a 'cheap' clutch that can handle tuned VR power (200-250bhp)...not crazy standing starts but daily driving, then please let me know. Sanj.

ok..not been on for a long while, but i do try to come on at work and browse through the threads....this conversion in particular is just great to follow! Any chance a few photos could be sent to me phatty of different shots, i.e. rear diff,engine,corrado without the front end...with it all finished. I wanna make an A3 printed poster of your car and have it placed on my wall...coxxy, your doing great too mate...i hope you do get on pvw's front cover! Fantastic stuff...cya at inters and keep up the work. Sanj.

phat...your sure the wheels you asked about werent Artec turbos? Artec P-turbo: check out...if they are. [web]http://www.pamminger-tuning.at/Produkte ... teilig.htm[/web] Sanj.

check this out mate...it'll cheer you up: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... 6144482669 still got a phatter car than a porsche!
-
what a complete and utter tw*t...he had no advice to give you in reply to your wheels and showed no real interest in the corrado having porsche brakes...in summary didnt help one bit, but kinda gang up on you using the magazine readers (porka lot), saying the parts shouldnt be used on a 'lesser' car...what a complete and utter f*cker...that made me go mad that bit, the corrado is more of a car to own than his...regardless of the price tag and performance! I think he needs to get off his high horse..
-
fantastic car...i hope its well looked aftered. :)
-
lookin good bolly...hahah...kinda looks to me like you've given it a nice bodyshop tidyup, that paint is mint and them wheels look good as usual! i like how you've changed the back lights...it looks proper nice and subtle! Hope everythings goin ok mate... Dogprince aka sanj.

hasan mate...can you let me know how your soldering the led's onto the pcb (e.g. how are they connected, and where in the circuit will the resistor sit)...i think i'm gonna make a few of these and use them in my boot install (under the shelf supports and below each amp) perhaps even inside the heater vents or if i'm feeling daring...then under each seat. :wink:

he probably spent the best part of 2hrs per qaurter...them windows are a right bugger to get out! You need a tool with two pull handles one either end of a piece of string that can be pushed behind the front of the window seal, then you pull left to right in a cutting motion and cut the seel till the window pulls free. Same goes for the windscreen....but i reccomend a new one, if you can pull a few strings with insurance and get a new one put in. Theres a guy near me who does A-class jobs...top jobs, he used to work for BMW i think, and qouted me £450 to spray just my bonnet and one wing on the corrado...that inc. blowing down the door to blend it in. His prices are quite high, but i suppose its qaulity you pay for. His contact details are: Paul Cox panel and paint ltd. unit 6, 8 hartburn close, crowlane ind. estate, northampton. 01604 784466.

hmm johns car is fast...i dont think its 290bhp...i heard it could be more. I know him through a friend and he's a top bloke...leant me his mille miglia's to get me through an mot... :oops:
-
Still cant wait to finally see this machine...still very impressed looking at them pics again, lets hope it becomes 4wd over this month if you ave the time mate. I'll keep checking back for the developments and sound clips..even video clips if you get any up...you have given me a massive inspiration, i just need a bigger pocket to carry out what i need to do. :mrgreen:
-
same here....that car was the biz. An ultra shame i never got to buy that shell mate. :wink: Hope the project is comin on nicely. Sanj.
