Postage kills it from heritage

After 4 nuts for the rear struts, ones the secure the rear inner top mount. Misplaced mine when overhauling the rear suspension. part no N10328602

BAM is a stronger lump, also has the larger turbo (KO4), will need less fettling to make more power. 16V box will bolt straight on, from memory you will need a VR6/G60 clutch, so you wil be able to retain stock running gear. Fueling wise you're good with 16v setup, just make sure its running well. Downpipe wise go for a QPEng down pipe (not sure if thy still exist)

Dont think there is one for this forum, be good if we could get a clubstand going for some of the shows

Good turnout...not many Corrado's :(

Watch this space :) About to fit some to my VR, seats wise depends on your budget really? if you want wing back, fully electric....I just wanted some reasonably priced replacements for my front black leather seats, and picked up a pair of excellent black leather electric tombstones for £150

sounds like there will be a few of us lurking lol

Cool, will do. Still deciding if I should take mine, as it needs a few bits doing.

Think it will be the wheels mate...you got a fair bit Of poke 😁, swap over to stock rims if you can for the test

Maybe try swapping the rear shocks around?

Any others? Went to early edition today saw plenty of Corrado’s

Lack of rear arch liners makes the under seal fair game to debris being chucked up, u just need a small hole in the under seal allowing water ingress and resulting water sitting against the panel. Had a mk2 that was completely destroyed, yet under seal looked fine. If that’s the only bit it may be more cost effective to let a garage do the remediation rather than buy a welder, also the suspension mount will take some degree of skill to not end up looking a mess.

New rims finally fitted (too much time on the other project), pics in the sun really show off the pearl green paint Plans are to paint the carriers and rear calipers, and change the suspension to koni shocks + H&R springs, coilovers are just not right for this car.

Cars a bit of a mystery to be honest, had it about a month. Will dig thru the paperwork and confirm Spec. Defo does not have water injection tho, has dubpower exhaust system. Does have a peloquin lsd though with rebuilt box, puts the power down with no wheel spin. Also has been polybushed, eibach arbs fitted along with koni shocks. Also seems to run very cool, arround 90c, has an oil cooler,prob not A thermostatically controlled one If you pm me your email address I can send you any images you like.

Yep Vortech stage 2, schrick manifold, SP263 cams, advised it is 300+ (don't have an exact figure), defo feels like 300+ :). Work was done by stealth, been meaning to give them a buzz to see if they have any further info.

awesome work mate, love the dedication to the car. You have a very similar setup to mine,only hell of a lot cleaner!

As for the new seats......and the rest of the interior all cleaned and ready to go back in, after removal and treatment of some rust.

LOL Hoping to have this back on the road in a few months, dont want to hangabout

Thoght stock for a late car was the smaller one?

Opened another can of worms....love it though Nice nick Vr6....some electrical gremlins, and persistent water leaks, having stripped confirmed matrix OK, however fan seal had perished and door membrane leaking + 1 membrane missing altoghter! No wonder it smelts of dirty socks in there.

Hi mate, planning to replace mine with 90mm, so my 30mm will be off the car soon...not 100% sure ont he condition though. Will post up some pics.

Great Storm...best colour ;) Was planning similar treats for mine....other projects seem to get in the way though.

Seems reasonable price for the spec, you could remove the charger and other non standard bits recoup some money and put back to stock

I’d be up for a set of wings, possibly a scuttle cover as well
