A5 VRX

The ABS on them really can be a pain but as Jim says why not just fix it! Some people shouldn't be allowed near cars, there is trying then there is being dangerous.. Good work mate, these little jobs do satisfy you when you have sorted them Adam

I didn't think it had? Well for the cost it needs a new one as it's proper brown and you cant see a thing when topping up, and it looks unsightly! Be a bit cheaper then as all I would need it the bottle and not the cap or plug, happy days!

MK4 expansion bottle mod next and clean that washer bottle too..

No pics yet but will get some, it's very tidy and the front seats are nicely worn (if you know what I mean!) It's the second Moonlight Blue with black heated Recaros' I've had, now they were mint

Cheers mate, was actually reading your thread yesterday, awesome car, awesome skills!

The list of stuff on this car is quite extensive which drew me to buying it Full engine rebuild at 109k, car now on 132k Full respray in original colour, turned out the guy who painted it did my Lupo GTI and 328i Sport, very good job done Full electric and heated Recaro leathers (very nice!) 7.5 x 16 BBS RC's Teves 20 ABS system 312 fronts 258? rears Rebuilt rear beam and bushes Passat moonroof U.S 3rd brake light SWG Scuttle R32 wishbone bushes Daves16v handbrake tunnel, door handle repair kits Daves16v under bonnet stainless kit Uprated headlight loom Lupo wipers De-wipered rear and hole welded up and removed Can't remember anymore as Tom hasn't done a spec list as such but plenty more done to it, heater matrix, dash wires re-wrapped etc etc

It's not done in this picture but I swapped the front and rear wheels around because the tyres although the same size all round 215 40 16 the Michelins are a lot fatter than the Hancooks that were on the back so had to be swapped. The Michelins are basically brand new but will have to be changed, they seem far to bulbous and look daft..

All in and so much better! Looks mint! Induction kit now back off and original airbox in place again

Next up was the inlet manifold, looked tired so just freshened it up and the rocker cover too. Actually bought the inlet off Tom 5 years ago previously so was just sat in my shed

Wanted to change a couple of things on it, suspension being one and alloys another. These might just have to wait a little while longer as a couple of things have been done first. Old back box is up for sale if anybody wants it... First off was a new back box made by Huthwaite Stainless Steel Exhausts nr Sutton-in-Ashfield, amazing work by these guys. Had a few systems made by them now and the craftmanship is second to none. The old exhaust sat more like a stainless original which was fine but not what I was after. First 2 pics are the old one..

Well decided I should share my VR6 which I have had for a month, more of an impulse buy than anything else as I wanted another car but didn't know what, cue another Corrado. Plus it was only 10 mins from my house.. In reality I should of bought a mk5 GTI but I just love being in one of these. Bought it of Tom (Purple Tom) and he did a great job of building it, I take no credit. It's under A5 VRX because that's the plate that's going on in the next week or so just waiting for the paperwork, I was previously under username Blackvalver and AJ-VR6 but the plate seems more fitting.

Awesome car, was looking at it on ED38, should of bought this instead of my VR6, but a soft spot for the Coupe prevailed! GLWS

They are awesome wheels

That's not good but all fixable, just takes time money and patience. But once you've done it you know it's done right and it's another thing ticked off the list... Adam

It probably was doing 4 to the gallon :) Looks nice.. I love that colour, I think it really suits the modified Corrado's. As usual there is always something to keep you busy on these cars and keep your wallet opening Adam

Looking for some pics of the Corrado running shortend number plates on the rear, does anyone have this, thinking of doing it when I get my paperwork through but not if it looks like it shouldn't be. Google has been no help. Plate is a 5 digit one Cheers Adam

Looking to sell an item in the classifieds parts for sale but Panjo keeps saying I need to be logged in, i've got a car on there for sale which was posted no problem but seems it will not let me log in (which I already am logged in anyway) or continue? Any tips? Thanks Adam

I didn't know that, thank fella. Learn something everyday I will have a word with Stealth also Cheers

Search is awful but been googling for a while now, just was looking for owners actual views and what they thought of the mods Thanks Adam

Just looking for this info on this really, what the benefits are, what's needed and where to buy/who to go to plus I suppose the price of it all. Are there any downsides? thanks Adam

I've bought some from TPS now, just waiting to pick them up Thanks anyway Adam

Andy H, that looks so good!

Thanks for the info, just need some time now to get the job done and finished!
