Bought new tires - Bridgestone Potenza RE002 205/50R16. Yeah, it is not stance size, but I'm very bored of driving my static low Corrado with low profile tyres, and would like to enjoy the driving R36 engine without slow down before every pit
I put these on my Corrado along with the big rotors from ECS and Hawk HPS pads. They really stop good!
I installed a 02J VR6 starter after cleaning up and regreasing the the bendix and solenoid. Testing of the starter:
When I removed the oversize pistons from the PG block thought that the bottom skirt had came in contact with the oil squirters but looking closer looks like they may have been ground at the JE before delivery. They are all ground the same and seems at the same angle as well
Purchased a replacement exhaust manifold, mine had too many striped stud holes or my liking. Purchased from a member! Update: Picked it up today, great replacement part!
Hard for me to say, it's been a while since I had stock suspension in the car. The Koni's replaced some very old Boge Turbo Gas struts/shocks and Neuspeed springs, and there's a marked improvement from that setup. I currently have the Koni's set to medium firmness and not terribly low ride height, and so far I'm very pleased - but I'll probably futz with them a bit more as I drive it and things break in.
The rear Boge Red shocks were shot, so I put in Koni Yellow Sports to match what is in the front and replaced bushings with AUTOTECH Polyurethane; kept NEUSPEED Sport Springs
MINTEX Pads All Around
I'm actually running corrado g60 rotors right now that i redrilled to 5 bolt since my last set warped.
I used to use M1 0-40 in my VR6 Corrado, but the valve, chains and engine noise went way up, especially at a cold start
