Hello, & Welcome. What flavour of corrado are you getting?
-
what gauges does the VDO unit have?
-
yes i would buy the bits of you if your up for selling them. i may as well renew them i guess Cheers
-
very nice, looks great in that last pic, even though its just a small bit of corrado :)
-
Just a few questions as will be doing this soon. Got the inlet manifold off and got new gaskets for that, do i need to renew any of the bolts/fixings that held it on? Same for rocker cover, do i need to renew those nuts? Also when i went to buy the rocker cover gasket there was two, one for a plastic cover, and one for metal, i didn't know which i needed so bought both, will it be obvious which is which, when i take the old one off?

In what format is the ham, is it sliced or an actual ham? Don't want the cheese as mine is in good condition. Sent from my X10i using Tapatalk

i bended mine back into shape, but they weren't too bended in the first place. I would say it was very minor bendage

The CF Update: New design, new classifieds & more to come!
Jim Bowen replied to Andi's topic in Site Comments and Questions
i like it now, and no longer have the problems i used to moan about, and now i can use the normal link to forum rather than the "direct-the-corrado-forum.net" one -
are the inlet manifold gaskets new VW stuff? i just took mine off over the weekend and could do with new ones.

Silicon Hose kits for VR6 from Roose Motorsport
Jim Bowen replied to Stonejag's topic in Forum Group-Buys
Decided i don't need them, my samcos have been fine and still look new, and my mate reminded me that i'm ditching the standard oil cooler so won't need them hoses -
i found similar in my boot, i attacked it with the dremel and put some rust treatment on it, i plan to revisit it soon and see how bad it is

Silicon Hose kits for VR6 from Roose Motorsport
Jim Bowen replied to Stonejag's topic in Forum Group-Buys
going to look at my hoses tomorrow, i may sell my existing samco kit and get this kit. Not sure which ones i need tbh, am getting confused at all the hoses :lol: i know i have two left from the samco kit that i didn't fit, and i didn't replace the oil cooler ones ---------- Post added at 10:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:09 PM ---------- also i notice the inside of the samco hoses is different colours, blue or grey, i presume blue is water and the grey is breather stuff then -
Let KADVR6 have them, I'm not in desperate need of them yet.

Renshaw project (probably going to sell / swap)
Jim Bowen replied to 24V Renshaw's topic in Members Gallery
Although they say corrados are unrealiable, i've only ever been stuck and needed recovering once, i quite enjoy the adventure of fixing it and getting home. I have the gruvenparts one on mine, its nicely made but quite expensive, but i figured its never going to need replacing again. Think i got a deal as i ordered a few VR6 parts at once, still got some golf part i never needed. -
Hi Bill could i take the wishbones bushes

When I took my wings off, one side had a spacer for the wing, the other side was missing. Dunno if this means the wing sticks out further. Sent from my X10i using Tapatalk

Mine has the hole but only noticed the wire going through. Not noticed the motor, but can look. Am in the process of removing all mine. Sent from my X10i using Tapatalk
-
thats the two i mentioned in another thread, but just read they aren't for oil cooler, so i don't know
-
They bought out some oem type looking hoses. Might of been called something like classics. Sent from my X10i using Tapatalk
