I love 15" steels, and this set was a bargain at around £100 quid, came powder coated and with all centre caps and nut covers I will be putting some E30 sport 15" bbs wheels on it soon, they suit C lines well

Awesome. Is that Dan Kinnerleys old car? Im sure Gareth talked about that when i bought the Corrado from him. Blimey ben, i didnt realise you gareths C! U lucky boy! That is a quality car Yea audi is dans old car, since i bought it i had it custom mapped and done few bits to it and also have nos kit to go on yet I keep getting this idea in back of my head of finding a mint C shell and transfering engine and haldex 4wd from my A3 into it :D

Oh yea i do, hi ben Your C looks nice, and one of the best colours to :wink: I had quite few cars since but my latest is black C and i also have striped out A3 quattro running 460 bhp :D Still think C handles better!

Thanks for all the coments lads, i just love corrados so much it brakes my heart to see them scraped! Sad i know, but i have even named my boy 8 years ago KI-Corrado, for reall! People thought i was mad but everyone now loves the name, and by the time he is 18 and i provide a rado for him it should be a cool combination :wink:

Thank you jim :)

Well after beign absent from corrado scene for couple of years and missing having one i decided to by one cheap that needs work doing. Not long ago i blew up my track day mk2 valver at cadwell so i had allot of tasty bits left over plus i already had lots of unused spares lying around in my garage so i decided to go for early valver as all the bits could be bolted on. After a while i'v noticed a black valver on e-bay that needed much love and care after beign stood for a long time, and it didnt have interiour, exhast, handles..ect, and had few faults like leaking pas rack...ect Car however did have: 5 stud hubs and vr brakes, Nice private number plate including brand new german style plates, Lether rim steering wheel Imobiliser And most comprehensive service history with 13 stamps,all bills and every single mot! Also i'v picked up Fk coilovers of e-bay for £120, refurbed by my self And i already have rear beam with mk3 calipers and poly bushes Eibach arb-s Full powerflex polybush kit And just bought nice Abf motor with fresh rebuild and schrick cams for £550 So once i do the bodywork(my self) and rebuild it with all the bits above it should be on the road for around the grand! Will need some tasty wheels tho so that will push the price up but there is always e-bay and clisifieds on here to rely on This is how it is right now, will keep updating pics as and when rebuild begins May go for satin or matt black paint, very low stance on deep dish 15" orange wheels Anyway here is few pics As you can see from pics above it was in quite a state but it is now done with every bush changed for powerflex, brake disks uprated, brake lines are stainless braided, refurbed coilovers with brand new mk3 top mounts, back to 4 stud with g60 hubs and correct driveshafts...ect Got grey interiour for £30 of e-bay as well as standard front grill Still got to fit exhaust properly and do few bits but it will do for now, it is mot-ed and taxed and on the road, and drives spot on, still pules as it should and handles and stops really well! Anyway here if few pics through the build And finally did all the body work my self and temporarily painted with rattle cans! After all of that i gave the car much needed service and replacing minging fuel filter and all ignition components It now drives so well i think i might just keep this one for a while! Sorry about the long thread and thanks for reading :D

Oh yea i think its time for me to change my sig Owning a seat,audi and couple of golfs now so i'm not sure what to use as my sig Maybe that mount? :lol:

:lol: :lol: :lol: at the mount It was an experiment that worked so well i didnt want to remove it My excuse for bad wellding is lack of gas at that time but i carried on regardless :oops: I'm just pleased valver is still running well even at that milage Just proves my point that valvers are about toughest engines around,especially if looked after!

I know stan,he came to view the rado for laura when i had it for sale,top lad I will PM him to Thanks

Cheers gareth,hope you well,havnt seen you in a while

Sweet, i will pm him,thanks

You will have to excuse me,i havnt been on here in a long while!

Who is jim? What's his user name?

As above, can you get in touch with me so i can send you spare keys and a remote fob. When i sold it to Laura(Scarlet) from here i'v promissed her the keys but couldnt find them at the time Anyone with info? Cheers

did not try new switch, but switch was perfect prior to braking the corrado and also was working ok in my other corrado since No power to front or rear fogs do run through headlights switch but it is not a relay as such because it doesnt have a coil within it, if you know what i mean I'm quite sure there should be a relay somewhere as i used to hear it click once you turn the fogs on :?

No wander i couldnt find my post in engines section :lol: Sorry :oops: anyhow,can anyone help? :help:

Hi folks, how do Got a problem with foglights, basicaly i'm getting no voltage at all at connectors Car is a mk1 golf but entire electric set up is from a G reg valver rado including a fuse box Could someone tell me what relay is correct one and where should it be pluged in? I have everything else working :D

just had a look at rear of car loom and found it! Cheers for that

Cheers for that I am installing 2.0l valver engine into mk1 golf using all rado electrics i striped of my written off rado which i dissmantled 2yrs ago This is why i cant remember exactly what goes where and i'm also sure i'v lost some wiring if i dont find it i think i'l just run two wires from those pins and should be ok?

How do folks, Can someone tell me which connector on the fusebox feeds fuel pump and what colour are the wires? On a 1.8 valver Cheers :)

How do cai, yea cabrio shafts are a direct fit but i already got brand new standard mk1 gti shafts complete with c/v joints seems shame to waste them I have deffo heard of people changing flanges to suit on 02a box Will post a qstn on club gti Cheers for your efforts :)

Did you have your handbrake down all the way? check for binding caliper with the car running as the servo will apply some pressure other than that, no idea

are your wishbones tightened fully? how about front wheel bearing knackered?

Maybe you suspension needs aligning as incorect camber can have simmilar efect i'd be worried if your rear wheels look different,maybe your stub axle is bent?

wack em on max negative till you can get it done properly
