diesel junior:
Thanks Nasir, exhausts are much better but am back in the UK for a month in just over a week and Autosol is on the shopping list and some more abrasive wire wool wouldnt go amiss either. It was a so and so of a job but not on the level of doing a heater matrix on a Corrado  :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared:

Nasir:
 :signLOL: I wouldn't know about Corrados. How come you've not put the 18" Monza IIs on?

diesel junior:
Hmmmm, good point, er, because i havent got round to the wheel thread yet!! I actually like the ones it came with but they need a refurb in the autumn when i come back. Go on the Corrado forum and the heater matrix is a legendary job, for one person its 7 hours minimum and everything has to come off, dashboard, seats (for access), instrument panel you name it and the end result is a pin sized hole in the matrix. Having said that, the worst part is when the damn thing breaks, 120kmh and all of a sudden the vents chuck steam at you, zero visibility, zero G12, zero entertainment........

George:
Still looking good buddy! Can you do me a favour and get the part number for those tyres please? It probably starts with an R

Thanks :happy2:

diesel junior:
George they are RE 070 Bridgestone Potenzas i checked 'em this morning! I have always been a Michelin fan but these are excellent, we have had monsoon like conditions here over the last few days (if you saw the match on Tuesday you would have got an idea......) and the tyres have been terrific thru the rain, standing water etc i recommend them! Just need a wheel refurb in the autumn when i come back! Thanks and happy motoring!
