  4. front down pipe £ 135.00 cat £65.00 mid section £ 25.00 all these prices are plus vat and the earlier down pipe is £ 105.00 plus vat i dont really need the middle box ( the one which looks like its big enough to put on a lorry ) and it has a scorpion rear box which is quite new :roll:
  5. :roll: Hi people i need some advice on my car its a 1992 2ltr 16v which has at some point had the cat removed and a straight pipe fitted in its place , the problem is its crap it looks like a 3 year old has been playing with tissue paper and snot to bodge it togeather , ive made some enquires at GSF and Euro parts for prices for replacement down pipe and mid pipe to the middle box , if i go new down pipe to cat and to mid pipe its going to cost a small fortune , but what i was wondering was if i can fit the earlier down pipe to center pipe as its half the cost as the other system. If any ones done this before could you tell me if the earlier system is likely to foul on anything around the sub frame or drive train , any help would be greatfully appreciated :nuts:

Thanks again people :shock:
  13. :cheers: what can i say mate your a super star , the picture is a great help and will surely help me out with my pridicament , could i possibly ask were you managed to get the piccy from ?as im finding it hard to get any type of info on the corrado , it all seems to be mixed in with golf ,passat and vento . again thanks for your help :notworthy:
  14. i will try to strip them out tomorrow and take a picture of the strut , im not sure how long this suspension has been on the car ,it looks pritty old and to be honest i think later this year i will replace it all again when the moneys avilable from the bank of no funds known as my wife !!!! , it would be good if anyone could help me out with a exploded picture of the strut assembly so i could see how the components are put together , im a little concered that the previous owner may have worked for john wayne autos and may have left some thing out as the amount of play is about the same as the hight of the top mounts that i have . cheers guys i really appreciate your help. :notworthy:
  15. hi guys i need your help again !! . ive got a 2ltr 16v rado which i havent owend very long , the problem i have is when the vehical is jacked up there is about 2inchs of movement in the top mount of the strut , the car has koni adjustsble struts and uprated springs , ive got two new top mounts but im not sure if they are going to fit the struts . ive not had a chance to drop the struts out yet but when you look up to the top of the strut it looks like there no top mount fitted or if there is it looks completely different to the new ones , if any one can help it would be appreciated as i really would like to stop the stuts moving as me wheels are rubbing on the inner arches on full lock and it makes your head hurt if you drive over anything bigger than a slippery slug . thanks guys and gals :iamwithstupid:
  16. your right it does splutter to 3k like you say so you could be right about the injector problem , and i will set the co to 2% tomorrow and try it out , thanks again for your tips guys its really appreciated cheers. :thumb right:
  17. temp sender sounds like a good idea will try on monday , car otherwise drives great the flat spot is that bad at 1500 rpm that you really have to build the revs up to 3000 rpm and then it seems to clear , thanks for ideas cheers guys :bigsmurf:
