  1. I can give you a pic of the locations from the bentley manual, with the listing for the locations??
  2. Its held in with plastic rivets, fairly easy removed but recomment buying new rivets when putting the trim back on, but tbh i wouldnt unless you have a few days in the body shop booked, namely the arches will be rusty even if its only slight and when you re fit the trim i can virtually guarantee it wont fit back in the same place 100% and you will see marks on the paint where they have been
  3. Im with them too, less than 500 quid fully comp all mods declared, Elephant wanted 870 before i fitted the charger
  4. It was hard work, very frustratng at times but im glad its all in and worth it!!! The noise it made coming off the M6 Toll going to inters made it worthwhile
  5. Been looking forwrd to this all year so you can count m in too!
  6. Mine is reading 2703 ATM
  7. Good luck changing the clutch assembly, IIRC you cant. The air con pump is held on with two bolts 16mm heads IIRC accesible from the top and bottom and the pipes should be an 8 mm allen bolt that holds in the collar around them
  8. I have a friend in Germany who got mr mine from SLS tuning, i was about £100 for the belt, can do both air con and non air con applications, You can ditch the idler pulley and air con pump and run a single sided ribbed belt 1510mm long if your stuck as thats what im running as my kit came minus the idler, it works fine but i miss the air con so i need the idler pulley asap
  9. Its a reliatively straight forward swap, the fluid clutch can be over looked as all corrados had them, as can drive shafts, basically, engine, gearbox, loom, clocks, bonnet may be required due to the vr sitting slightly higher, and the front crossmember i believe is vr6 specific byt i may be wrong
  10. Cracking car and a cracking couple!! Was excellent meeting you both at Inters
  11. Pah 7 is good, an average over 3 years of 5.5 is better. Thats what my Daf XF daily gets
  12. Food was awful and far too expensive, bar the milkshakes, they were superb!! Getting in last year was lots better than this year, didnt make sense not getting in and past the planes this year. Club stands and stands really should all be on the tarmac as there is enough room, apart fron that i enjoyed the show.
  13. Cheers mate, thats it finished, bar routine maintenance now!!
  14. Thank you guys for your kind words, i have finally temp fixed the car, only way to get the charger to run was to remove the air con pump, so thats done and the new alternator is now doing its job!! The front bumper is on and back to normal!! I just hope after these few days it gets to inters, im massively impressed with the smoothness of the z engineering charger
  15. Thats my car FINALLY fixed, its been washed but i didnt have time to polish it, hopefully get that done tomorrrow
  16. Dont quote me but im pretty sure the schrick has its own specific bracket
  17. I dont worry about things breaking but everything happening at once and this close to inters after 3 weeks stressing about getting bits here fitted and working is kinda like a knife in the side. The engine has been stripped and rebuilt with anything worn removed and replaced at 126k, the bottom end showed no signs of wear so i feel that it was a safe enough move
  18. Oh please dont fuel a burning fire, i never thought about that and i dont have time now
  19. True Sals, but ive been stressing for 3 weeks that the car aint gonna be ready for the weekend, i get some progress and its back to suare one. Currently its residing with no bumper, grille, air filter, boost pipes, and it has a charging fault. Marvellous. Ive chilled out a little, once the charging circuit/alternator is fixed i hope to built it back up tomorrow
  20. Afraid not Rich, sick of he hassle and grief, not to mention the money! If it makes it out of the drive under its own steam ill be impressed never mind to inters :-(
  21. It pains me to say it but ive had enough, im really on a knife edge as to whether i keep my car,after the last few weeks its not worth it!! Hit a dog and broke the smooth cab bumper 2 weeks ago, pooch was ok tho, now after fitting my charger either the battery or alternator has died, and its supposed to be at inters this weekend!! Really at the end of my tether after spending over 2k in 2 months on it this is what happens!!
