valves front tyres less than 100 miles old toyo proxes t1r's rear 1 toyo proxes t1r and one older style toyo proxes bad bits: some slight bubbling around the filler cap which has not yet broken the paint odd stone chip here and there but not that noticable as i have always touched them up then gone over them with my da polisher to make the surface flat again couple of scuffs on one of the sideskirts some corrosion on some of the running gear/ gearbox paint small hole inside one of the front jacking points (not the sill the bit that sticks out that folk jack the car up on!) non matching rear tyres (one old style proxes one new) having just bought the pair of fronts i wasnt going to pay out for another for the rear just so they all match plus the new owner may wish to switch to another brand front seats not wired in, i have the loom somewhere but the fuseboard end plug has been removed can be wired to any ignition live so yeah overall its a lovely mk2 with a decent spec was made more to be a drivers car which could still rock upto a show and not look out of place which is what it has done unfortuatly due to being used properly some of the running gear etc could do with a spruce up to be at its best again but is still perfectly presentable i chose to mention the small hole inside the jacking point as i would rather know about it if i was buying, i could of quite easily sprayed over it with underseal and kept quiet as it is i have just sprayed some waxoil on it to stop it from getting worse the area is still solid and you can still jack the car up at that point i have a pit in my garage and any serious buyers are welcome to inspect the car from underneath as i have nothing to hide, i could sort this/get it sorted but i have spent the past few months of my spare time getting the car ready for sale (sorting all the little jobs that i never got round to doing!) and would rather be putting the time into my corrado price:£8000 location: kendal cumbria contact: neil 077zero945zero939 may possibly take a px most likely for a tt worth upto £2000 for my gf (no silver ones!) and obviously the rest of the money my way! could also sell it a bit cheaper if i kept the front seats, would be supplied with the original rainbow ones

G60 set up is the easiest and cheapest option same caliper and 280mm disc size as vr6 but still 4x100 and will fit under 15" wheels pretty sure the calipers will bolt straight onto your current carriers as well

These are now sold sorry barberg60 someone collected them today.

Sold

cheers Don't really have the time to be wrapping them up at the moment which is why I had stated collection only, if no one wants them that can collect then I would consider wrapping them for a courier to collect Neil

set of estoril alloys that came with my old corrado 16v/20vt i refurbed these myself years ago with the inserts painted black and the faces polished then laqured them as you can see from the pics moisture has gotten under the laquer so they will need a spruce up to look there best again easy enough to do yourself as they are fairly flat faced tires have plenty of life left in them and are pirreli p5000 dragos 195/50/15 im looking for £120 collection only located in kendal cumbria neil

set of vr6 speedlines that came with my corrado was going to hang on to them but could do with the space and some money to go towards finishing my vrt there all fairly scabby as you can see so maybe ideal to get refurbed whilst keeping your car on its wheels or used as winter wheels, all tires are legal but one of them is pretty close to the limiters tires are all avon zv5's 205/50/15 due to the condition of them im after £65 for them collection only im based in kendal cumbria neil

right been a while but started doing stuff on this again basically came to a standstill due to doing things on the new house,doing some work on my mk2 now that i have a garage and also making the mistake of telling the local lad who has been checking my box over and fitting the diff that i wasnt in a hurry due to moving into said house gave it to him in feb got it back last weekend! but now its back im cracking on with it and intend on the car coming to the new house in oct (when my rent on the barn where it is now runs out) whether that be by its own steam or on a flatbed! i finished my tig welding course and bought myself a welder but due to not having the box ive only been able to weld up the first 90 degree bend i can continue with the rest once the box is back on and the engine is back on its mounts got a mate coming to help me fit the box tomorrow after work so hopefully things can start progressing again i also made a start on fitting/refitting what i could to the engine before fitting the box, exhaust mani is on but due to its shape it needed some of the lower studs to be removed and chopped down also inlet is on but has required some fettling to fit, injector rail has also needed modding and just some general bits refitted some of which took some head scratching as its about a year since i took it to bits! oh and also fitted the walbro intank pump

If you split I would be interested in the recaros on there own depending on price Neil

No worrys the car is in loads of pieces at the moment anyway Pm sent Neil

Would you be willing to do them for £450 delivered to cumbria? Neil

These still available?

Great work so far mate bet you can't till she's on the road again

Interesting stuff didn't even know about stuff like this I've not seen any spacers for sale that are like that though Cheers whether doing it all myself is a wise choice is yet to been seen but I'm enjoying it so far Managed to nip and do a bit after work got the springs and retainers back in bit fiddly but got there in the end

Yes May be a while before it's going again though have a house move soon and been told the house comes first! And was planning on making my own downpipe and will mate it up to the current exhaust to get it running then probably make a trip to pipewerx to get the rest of the system done in 3" No apology needed when the machine shop gave me the head back and said it needed lapping in I to was worried but after my mechanic friend explained it to me I felt better about doing it myself! Yeah using a 1.5mm spacer plate, no idea about the 4 leaf clover thing though! Neil

not really difficult just spinning a valve round stuck to a suction cup on a stick as Dox said it's more time consuming than anything

Cheers and yeah it's the job I was least looking forward to doing but it seems to be going ok, I'm going to be extremely nervous when I start it up again for the first time!

Yeah was fairly time consuming doing 12 wish I had thought of putting the stick in a drill could of made it a tad easier!
