kieron 0 Posted June 24, 2004 Very, very nice. I remember when you announced the start of this project. Clean and simple lines with the ONLY choice of wheel to have on a Corrado. :wink: 360 bhp and 4WD hehe! I bet a few cars get a shock when an old Corrado kicks sand in their faces! :mrgreen: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

corradoSTORM man 0 Posted June 24, 2004 Thats one HELL of a car, fair play to you. :D is there much cutting or welding to the floorpan :?: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
biggerbigben 0 Posted June 24, 2004 Thats one HELL of a car, fair play to you. :D is there much cutting or welding to the floorpan :?: Oh yes! A rallye donor car was used for its floorpan, which was cut out then welded into my corrado. Time consuming.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CoxyLaad 0 Posted July 1, 2004 How much can you lower your car before the rear camber becomes stupid? I am going to have the same problem shortly when mine gets on the road. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
biggerbigben 0 Posted July 1, 2004 How much can you lower your car before the rear camber becomes stupid? I am going to have the same problem shortly when mine gets on the road. In order to have nearly no camber at all on the rear this is wroughly what height is needed .... lol I'm looking at modifying the wishbones soon so I can have the car low and not have any camber. Anyway check the pic out... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CoxyLaad 0 Posted July 4, 2004 HAHA you have got to be jesting! It would be like driving around in a corrado country! I *heard* a rumour of eccentric bushes that can be used on teh wishbones to raise the inside and thus cancel out some of that camber. My car wont be that low so I was hoping it wouldnt suffer but by the looks of it its gunna run into the same problems you are having. Cheers Mate Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My car wont be that low so I was hoping it wouldnt suffer but by the looks of it its gunna run into the same problems you are having. Cheers Mate Eccentric bushes will do minimal to help remove the rear camber, the eccentric bushes however will help to remove the 'tow' on the rear wheels and I plan to get a set soon. The only way to get rid of the camber and have the corrado at a nice ride height is to modify the wishbones, i.e. cutting and re-welding. I will be doing this mod soon.

biggerbigben 0 Posted July 29, 2004 Just a quick update, been working on the project quite a lot this week. Trying to get it ready for mapping. Engine has been out and back in since inters for a few more mods to take place and I'm hard at work getting the interior ready, thus why there is so much dust everywhere.... I've also raised the suspension since inters as well to get it into the garage! Meant to be on the road in 3 weeks... :roll: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
