  1. Hi all I am about to complete my vr6 and use it for track days or commutes into work once or twice a month along some nice fastish a roads. I am looking for some info from anybody that uses there car for track days as I need to set up my suspension. The car runs 205/40/17 wheels due to the brakes plus it is fully poly-bushed on the rear with poly bushes on the front of the wishbones and r32 bushes on the rear.It also runs KW coil-overs that have been adjusted down pretty far but still allowing the drive shafts to run horizontal to the ground. The rear will also be fitted with an eibach camber kit and has a rear strut brace with strut braces on the front both upper and lower. It will eventually run the adjustable top mounts I have sitting. My question is what do people run with regards to camber and castor on the front and rear of there cars... Cheers Ryan
  2. it's mk3 headlights and slam panel with the headlights either a mk4 style(which I can't find) or mk4 innards some how.
  3. I've just fished the headlights out the garage and will report back. I am trying to decide if he has grafted on the front end of the mk4 wings......just for the curve round the headlights or if they are the original wings cause if you look the bonnet doesn't match exactly to the end of the wing. I need to find a mk4 slam panel before I try it though...
  4. I like it. I think it's kind of shows what a modern corrado could look like. Give it an r32 engine, haldex system and a newer dashboard/interior and I think it would look good. It does look like a mk4 r32 bumper with mk4 headlights but I think theres been a lot of cutting and shutting for the wings and bumper. I have some mk4 headlights lying about I may just hold them up to see how much work it would be.... Here is a side view......
  5. Hi all The silver reflectors in my headlights are way past there best and showing the orange undercoat through the silver. Does anyone know any where I can replacement reflectors instead of having to buy a full headlight cluster. Cheers Ryan
  6. I have just got round to doing this but used a fiat bravo rad instead. The problem I have encountered now is the bottom hose point on the filler tank fouls the cross beam the old rad and power steering pump used to sit on. As I have relocated the power steering cooler and the new rad has different mounting points can I remove this cross beam completely as it seems to serve now purpose now as the engine has a separate mounting cross beam..... Cheers Ryan
  7. sorry but has anyone tried this company: http://www.pesch.cz/ there is a group buy on another forum and there prices seem good and the quality seems good as well. They guy has said he would make other parts but would require 3 or more of the same component to be ordered. Dogger if your going to do a f/g bonnet/ wings and tailgate I would be interested. ---------- Post added at 11:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:21 PM ---------- sorry but has anyone tried this company: http://www.pesch.cz/ there is a group buy on another forum and there prices seem good and the quality seems good as well.

  8. Would you sell both the interior handles, the plastic parts that goes round the door release handles and the two triangular parts that sit on the inside down by the wing mirrors. cheers
  9. Hi there I would be interested in front wings and bonnet. On a side note though if your guy can't do them on a separate forum they are using a company in CZ who seem to be good with reasonable prices....There is no C parts but he has said he will make them if he gets three or more on order. http://www.pesch.cz/
  10. Hi Dave I had been looking into doing a mk4 shifter mod but can't find anything about but found this thread instead....would this be a better mod? what has actually been done to reduce the throw within the system? Cheers Ryan
  11. Hi all I have decided to actually pull the c out the garage from under all the boxes and crap and get it ready for the summer....The front brakes have been sitting in the passenger foot-well and need rebuilt so does anyone know where I can get a repair kit as I could do with changing the seals and definitely need slider pins and new bolts...They are off a TT I was told when I bought it... Cheers
  12. cheers john, So really I could do with grabbing the carriers aswell....will these fit 295mm discs? Still liking your car john. I noticed it at stonor park last year and ended up talking to you on your stand about carbon fiber boot lids and wiring problems with my vr6 as it had burnt out the wiring during a dashboard fire.
  13. would the rear calipers off an audi a3 1.8t quattro work and is it just normal mk4 carriers or does it have to be 4 motion ones..... I know john sells the whole package but I have been offered these calipers cheap... So: Calipers:- audi a3 1.8t quattro? Carriers:- mk4 golf (gti?) Vented Discs:- ???????????
  14. sorry for bringing up an old thread but has any one thought of using jaguar xj6 288mm vented rear discs with jag calipers and custom adapters......... Also if I had to fit the bigger 280mm brakes am I correct in thinking I have to machine an old brake disc down for a spacer and use mk4 rear carriers to fit the standard rear calipers....
