whats happening to this one at the moment??????
-
hi i am putting a 2ltr 9A into my 1800 it is on carbs but are there any bits i need to change or will it drop straight in. i am slightly confused about these oil spray jets. but i am using the whole block and head so it should sit in and run right? and help would be great.

It is an 89 think it is quite an early one. electric sunroof and mirriors but not windows, strange
-
have not done that yet but it is on the list

yeah my mums has red calipers at the rear. good choice love borrowing hers, it never seems to stop pulling. get a revo remap and you will be flying. -
hi i have got my engine out at the moment it was an 1800 16v it is now a 2ltr 16v. but while the box was off i was gonna get a lightened flywheel but i was wondering if there is a replacement box that will act as a close ratio box. dont fancy pulling one a part to change gears just want a bolt on replacement if there is one. thanks for any help.

-
no sorry mate not lucky enough for it to be heated. is your aqua blue the one with the purple flip in. i needed to know so i can advertise the pannels of my donor car.
-
cheers msh. thanks for all the help so faron my car and for the lift to pick up the donor corrado. the blue corrado is my donor for full leather and my 2.0ltr 16v. also below is my much loved renault 5 gt turbo which is being sold and all ploughed into my corrado :cry:
-
just brought a donor corrado for the 2.0ltr engine oh and how handy it has full black leather as well. so i will be breaking the rest of the car soon.

remove it and put it in the boot. cleans up the bay a bit.

nice little picof your car on page 30 of golf + this month. :D -
friday removed the rear beam for the same powder coating treatment. i will also have all the rear brake lines done to match the front. i also removed the exhaust heat shielding so i can scrub it back to its shiny aluminium finish. with the rear beam out the way i can easily get to the fuel pump to remove and think about mounting my facet red top and regulator for the carbs. all this was in the rain i sure picked the wrong time of year to do this. :roll:

i will second that comment.

few pics of the subframe and poly bushes. had to put this on so that i can trailer it to the bodyshop to have the engine bay smoothed, scuttle tray removed and all painted. The bottom pic is a 9.5x16 corvette rim which when we are not working on my car we are fitting to the mk3 vr6 in the previous pics.(what a mission). i have also had the hubs powder coated drive shafts, engine mounts all brake and clutch lines.
-
big respect wish mine was moving along that quickly and to such a high standard.
-
brought a run around while the c is off the road.it was a standard driver went a bit rat style on it. she is lowered 80mm on springs with 15mm lowering caps, de-trimed, stenciled, de-badged grille and a roof rack. just a bit of fun really, the other is my mates vr on merc rims and coilovers lots of subtle touches like de-trimed and de-spoilered.
