Bought it like this ,

Weitec suspension

Bespoke s/s exhaust (sounds REALLY nice !)

Carbon fibre Bonnet

17'' Enzo alloys with Toyo Proxes

K+N panel filter

 

Pretty much complete in my eyes , got a powder coated inlet manifold and s/s corrado badge to put on yet though (probably next spring)

 

Can't decide whether to take the Nurburgring transfer off ...the previous owner , Pete , had actually taken it round there though

Looks very 8) What's the spec?

I surely would like that bonnet.... ;)

 

Very nice car, and some good mods, without too much being ripped off or molested. I'd say let the sticker stay, and take your car to the ring in the spring. Look out for staying away for mad driving days though and remember, there's little room for off course driving on that track.

 

Cheers,

Redfox.

Thanks :) , it gets some looks I tell thee ! ...gets appreciation from young folk to old , the younger ones thinking "whats that ?!" and the older ones sometimes give a nod and a grin ! , don't think theres many cars ,even modern ones , that can match the corrado for that

 

The bonnets were still available from performancetrim , but I think they've gone under (was thinking about a carbon spoiler which they did , but the website is no more)

 

As far as I know the engine is completely standard , k+n and 2" ehxaust maybe giving a little help , but performance wise , I haven't a clue ha ! Theres a local tuning place so going to treat it to a once over there , but I believe theres very little bang for buck mods on a 9A engine ?

 

As for the Nurburgring ... maybe one day :)

There's a company called LWS design that has picked up where Performance Trim left off. They have the rear spoilers on their site.

 

As for the ring it's well worth doing. I took my 9A over there in 2005 and it was good fun but the car felt underpowered on certain parts leading to me turbo-charging it on my return.

Great looking car, nice attention to detail. Very subtle and original looking

[scott1980 10]

Thanks again , wish i could take credit but I pretty much bought it like this , got a couple little bits to do ...

nice one destructiv dave , LWS seem to have a larger range too , like the doorcards and roofskin ! money no object , id get the roofskin AND spoiler ... carbon fibre looks s**t hot in the sun :)

 

Gonna fit the inlet manifold at some point , as well as the s/s corrado badge ........the pattern on the badge is actually the reflection from the cieling tiles when I took the photo :smug: ....it's SHINY !!

 

The manifold i got off ebay for 99p !! (+£9 postage) already powder coated , so itook some emery cloth and elbow grease to the badge , then painted with brake caliper paint...just needs some clear coat and a tidy before it goes on .

For performance, best thing you can do is get a KR cam fitted from a 1.816v. Will also respond well to having the head gasflowed.

[scott1980 10]

Sound , might have a crack at that ! what sort of gains could I expect , and ball park figure for either mod ?
