    it was a good show for the amount of time I spent there,did 493 miles travelling from the n-east,got carried away on the motorway and ended up in glasgow :lol: turned roun and set of back to kames,got 10 mile from the place and me mk1 went onto 3 pots(duff plug)limped to kames hoping to get a plug of one of the stalls or entrants and not a one on site :mad: so stayed for about an hour an a half,me mate phoned me with the nearest halfords which was in ayr so limped there on 3 pots got some plugs and she was back on 4 pots :D got back to kames and they were locking the gates,ohwell it was a good day out some awsome roads and I got home which is what matters,next year ile be prepered and hopefully get on the track
  10. [quote="kevhaywire Mk1, fantastic, looks excellent. Well done. I wouldn't mind some more details if possible as I've yet to get round to doing mine. Did you use the Corrado or Passat motor? Did you have any difficulties getting the sliding curtain to work properly? Lastly, where did you source the Passat parts? Thanks Kev 94 VR6 yer I just bolted the complete assembly out of a passat,£50 from one of the local breakers,used the corrado motor but passat is the same,just be carefull with the sunroof chassis as they are slightly different between the earlier and late(92 on?)as the motors are not interchangable,early motor has 3 wires late 6?,the only fiddly part of the job is removing the headlining,took me about 3hrs start to finish,good luck :lol:
  11. I carnt see it being any faster as they use the same motor,yep the shutter is from the passat and is also the same colour as the corrado headlining
  12. yep as above the passat roof mech is the same,fitting the glass roof makes a big difference imo to the interior of the corrado,gets rid of the dull interior feel,heres a couple of pics of one I done earlier,£50 top tip in golf mag :lol:

    Damn Sunroof!

    I fitted the complete roof assembly out of a passat including the blind without any problems to my mates corrado,even got a top tip £50 voucher from the golf mag :wink:
  14. I fitted one to my 2ltr 16v mk1 golf(ks3 fueling&ign)fitting was straight forward and I gained 10bhp bottomend,ive spoke to other people who fitted them and they confirmed that they dont give you any more power topend,I was`nt impressed with the fitting kit(cable ties)for £500 ide expect somthing a little bit better,I made my own mounting brackets,apparently if your ecu part number ends in a B it will run u/l fuel,if your running a std eng just go for the ign model ks1?

    corrado sunroof mod

    just a quick note on the above mod,check the number of wires on the motor,as the earlier motors(3 wires) dont fit the later frame
  16. have you checked your brake fluid level?
  17. mk1

    corrado sunroof mod

    I paid £50 for mine without the motor,if your sunroof packs up always look for a passat one anyway as they are cheaper and easier to find, but the same part apart from the glass roof
  18. mk1

    corrado sunroof mod

    heres a mod I got a top tip for in the golf mag,a passat mk3 glass tilt n slide sunroof is a straight swap into a corrado,it certainly brightens up the dull interior,the sliding trim is also a match to the corrado roof lining EDIT: pictures obviously no longer being hosted so i've removed the red 'x's.
