thanks for the comments, i'm feeling the oem look at the momemt so have resisted changing too much, Thats why the lights and repeaters have remained standard even though i have red tinted rear lights and smoked repeaters. Ive even left the rear wiper on. Also ive tried to put as much of the car back to oem spec so sourced some new badging for the exterior that was missing when i bought the car and replaced the parcel shelf for an uncut version minus 6 x 9's etc I think the corrado shape is so nice as standard that you don't need to do much more than a ride height alteration and a nice set of wheels.

Ive been a member for a few years but ive never post up any pictures. Although i only purchased my first c in January 2006 which was a moonlight blue 2l 16v, i bought it standard the fitted koni coilovers and 8 x 15's and ran it for a while untill my uncle decided to sell this blackberry vr after which i put the moonlight c back to standard and sold it so i could buy the blackberry. The blackberrys my daily and ive done 10k since september last year, its just recently come out of winter mode and m still tweaking the ride height as i had it raised in the winter. i took the pics today but as it was an overcast day the pics dont show the colour too much, ive posted a pic from a few weeks back in which you can see the colour in its element, anyway here are the pics... enjoy.

vw call it bramble mettalic, its more commonly referred to as blackbery

anybody on here with kw variant 2's?

any pictures of the ride height you run?

is that the ride height yo use daily in your sig? As mentioned already ive had Konis before on my 2.0 16v C and i was impressed, thought id try something different if there was better available.

are your Koni's coilovers?

which h&r's did you have?

i had fk's but they were shot so im on standard suspension at the moment. The pic in my signature was taken back in september last year.

I know the topic of which coilovers has been discussed many times before but usually there is not much emphasis put on the ride quality, My VR's a daily driver so the quality of the ride is important to me. In my shortlist i have KW variant 1, KW variant 2, H&R's and koni coilovers. Does anyone have any experiance/opinions on these? i had a set of koni coilovers on my old valver and was suitably impressed. I would go for the konis but after reading the comments kevhaywire has made on H&R's in some of his previous threads im tending towards those now One the forum i can't really find much said about how kw's ride and if there is any difference in ride between the two variants. are there any others that i have missed?

i really wanted to avoid getting aftermarket and avoide supersprint prices, i'l have to have a think about what to do, the supersprint works out £400+ right? Can you somehow buy the centre box seperately and is there a way it coul dbe made to fit, i wanted to stay oe. mk1 campaign, my digicams broken, i'll get pics up as soon as i sort it, its in winter mode right now anyway, the wheels are tucked up in my garage.

The centre box on vr6 is blowing, i would like to just replace the box with a new vag one but when i went to vw i was advised that the back box and centre box are all one piece? If so that means i would have to drop the beam to change it? Besides this i would only like to replace the centre box as the back box is fine? What has everyone else done? i dont want to go aftermarket as i want to keep the oe refinement!

the rims in osv pics are zw1's

rear view looks phat! does your exhaust catch the beam at all? are your rear wheels spaced?

if you want to sell them pm me :)

looks smart are you running your bbs's through winter?

i say keep the d90's non polished but get the coloured crested caps, car looks good but sort the camber out, a bit of negative looks good but i think your toe is out which makes it look odd, did you allign them yourself? Oh yeh drop it :) what colour is your car?

phat pics, the cars come a long way! who did your bodywork?

the black detailing looks phat!

Thats my mk1! lol

nice, any pics?

THe car was at no rice a few months ago, all i saw were all these people crowded round a corrado so i decided to go see what all the fuss was about. At first glance it looked like a very clean corrado on bbs's.... then i saw the interior with the tt dash and the porsche seats and i was blown away, the car is very impressive 8)
