spotted a floor in his write up 'only a golf underneath so parts shouldnt be 2 expensive ' hahahahahahaha -
cheers mate will drop him a pm. Yeh i can get everythin i want cause at the mo it is still in a the mk 3, I was guesing it all plugs in to the fuse box although i will pobly take the mk 3 1 and relays. Am i right in thinking obd 2 is only a pig to fit when going onto an obd1 engine, but straight from fresh it shouldnt be 2 bad. Also the abs that is in my car has its own ecu do i use the mk 3 wiring for this or leave as existing, cheers

any 1?. I have read on a thread that the obd2 lump has extra wiring and corrado bits need to be added is this just when obd 2 wiring is put onto a obd 1 as there aint all that much wiring with the 9a. What do u use as fuel pumps original the pump housings on the mk 3 are the same as the raddo so im guessin to swop this with my 9 a 1. Have done a search but to no avail ,but that might just be me

I know i will get the answer y build when u can buy but i have soured a low milage vr lump and my valver is getting rattly and using lots of fuel, i have done an abf into an 8 v digipant so im aware of wiring keys ecu etc just asking about fuel pumps do i need to change them or are they capeable of running the vr. the noise has just got to me and i cant afford a 3.2 yet. and my car is straight and low milage
