you sure? I´ve been told it´s quartz metallic, and its defo not black, at least not as black as some corrados ive seen
-
nice car... you should add a chrome vw bagde to the back of it though, I think it would go nicely with your wheels, and lighten up the back a bit. Also, I think a rieger grill would´ve suited the front end, and color coding the rear licence plate holder would make the rear end perfect. Oh, and the handles :D just some suggestions... I like the way it looks now though, I just thought I´d give ya some ideas :D

uhm... good question :D you got the skills to move it dontcha? :D thanks

a few days ago my heater started to make a crazy noise, like something was stuck in a duct, flapping like crazy. Suddently, the flapping noise slowed down, and in a few seconds, the fan stopped working all together on all levels (1 thru 4). What could be the problem, and how much are the parts to fix it? :D thanks (oh and sorry if this is a common topic, but I havent used the search for a long time, so I didnt find anything that described my problem :( )

thank you _leon_, I think I might replace it with a rado vr´d golf 3 a friend of mine just finished building, with a new paint job and some nice rims on it. But it aint no match for the beauty of this car. The reason I´m selling it is really cuz I cannot afford two cars, so this is my daily driver. And a corrado is, in my opinion, too worthy for such a title. It´s like a porsche, for special occasions only, so you can give it the care it deserves. Like it got today. Four hours a week should be a minimum :D and _leon_, it´s not really black, but dark gray :)

just gonna close my thread with some nice little pictures of my corrado, before I sell it. I firmly believe this is one of the most beautiful cars ever made in history, and it really breaks my heart to sell it.
-
bump... whats happening to this beast of yours? do you got some pictures of the car itself? :D
-
that alfa looks like something I would love to own.... and I have no idea what to say about what you´re doing with your corrado mate.... incredible just doesnt cover it! I seriously cant wait until I see the finished result (and I bet you cant neither)! Peace

That's 325.5 Nm for those of us who doesn't understand feet and pounds ;) incredible.

how are things going with the C these days? :)

ey, walesy remember me :D actually, my mechanic has one for sale, but then I'd have to sell mine, which will probably prove kinda difficult for decent money. :D

I would want to keep everything exterior as is (standard), so no bigger intercooler or anything fancy right away. I'd stay put with the stock ECU / management as well, as I don't really can't afford anything but the bare minimum as a full time student ;) So around the £3000 - 3500 mark for the 20vt then? Would that be a better choice than a vr6?

Hey! Been some time since I've been active on this forum, but now my car is back in the garage, so I need to get my mind going again ;) The G60 engine just tipped 240,000 km (150,000 miles), and although it works fine still, it has started to "drink" a wee bit of water, and has some minor oil leaks here and there. In other words, I'll need a new engine in a few months or so. Now, my mechanic turned out to be a vr6 transplant wiz, and says he'll get me an engine, gear box, suspension set up and all I need for a complete conversion, for around £3000-£3100 inc. labour and parts. Which is... well, over-comeable in Norwegian prices. What I was wondering was, what would a 20vt conversion cost me? I could get my car to the UK if needed. Oh, and what would be the better motor choice, a 2.8 vr6 or a 1.8 20vt? Peace, and thanks for all the advice :)

The pedal doesn't go all the way in, it feels like it won't move at all beyond a certain point. It's like the travel has been cut down to a third. It doesn't feel spongy, but I haven't changed the brake fluid since I got it a year ago, so that might be a bit old.
