  1. i've noticed a lot less corrados for sale, pistonheads has gone from nearly 100 corrados listed to around 30-40 at the moment. I think in the last two years lots have been sold on due to people needing money or not being able to justify the running costs
  2. i had a terrible race last night :( i felt useless :lol:
  3. so is the battery dead or its turning over and won't catch?
  4. the loom/wiring from the back of the headlight switch to the fuseboard is a common thing to burst into smoke when the switch breaks
  5. Rears: viewtopic.php?f=23&t=72885&hilit=calipers Can't find the thread for the fronts anymore :shrug:
  6. i made two good threads about both of these questions, and they both have all the part numbers and photos of each bit :D just need to find them
  7. any update to this thread? am thinking i may as well replace the pump, mine is a 1995 vr so do i need this sender?
  8. is that a professional job? lots of buffing trails there, what do you do with the bits that hard to get to? paint them black?
  9. what a plank, no wonder this makes no sense i forgot to add the link to the fuel pump i'd found :lol:
  10. since beginning of december the corrado has just sat around, i think the fuel pump is on its way out, after a bit of driving in it there is a really loud buzzzing from inside fuel tank. is this the correct part or should i just go to VW dealers? Don't wanna end up buying things twice.....AGAIN :lol:
  11. Cough....MK4 coolant tank upgrade....cough.... its on my list 8)
  12. something to open the coolant expansion tank with :lol: i've had to hit it with rocks before
  13. mine has suffered from this, when stopping at a really low speed. Its only done it 3-4 times in 50,000 miles, but have had all the brake stuff renewed, pads, disc, calipers, pipes and hoses. But didn't touch the ABS, so am blaming that
  14. i nearly painted my axle with hammerite while it was off, but couldn't be arsed :lol: so put it back on rusty 8)
  15. that looks amazing. i struggle to pick my favourite colour corrado as they are all so nice
  16. this is something on my mind, not driven mine for weeks now, and the last two times i have driven it. After about 20-30miles there is a really loud buzzing sort of noise from the fuel tank. not looked it yet, but am guessing after 180,000miles it could well be the fuel pump
  17. car reminds me of a really early skyline, but not sure it is one
  18. has anyone loaded it to their storefront? :lol: No Ak47's in the boot, just MR T, as he refuses to fly
  19. was some good racing lastnight, had a great tussle with mattski76. i forgot to save the reply but remember causing a few "offs" :|
  20. i was trying to buy one a few months ago and nearly gave up and got a magnex, but found a magnex in the end. Very happy with it, best made exhaust i've ever had
