Its a real shame about united motorsport being a nightmare to contact, I had initially wanted to use them for the mapping and other services but having found it impossible to actually contact them in the first place to give them my business I felt if I had any problems I wouldn't have a chance in hell of contacting or getting support. For the MPG on the R32 could you not run an inline resistor to correct the mpg if it is that far out? It doesn't bother me that much about it being highly accurate but if somethings worth doing, its worth doing right!

Pretty chuffed with myself, been sat many nights staring at wiring diagrams, glad that it's been for some use! Quick, can you not just push the lines on and use fuel clips? I'll need to do this so will be interested on what's needs to be done.

Hehe, I do love goodies! let me know payment details with postage and I'll bung some money your way.

Its for cutting up anyway on my R32 conversion so condition isn't a problem. As many bolts as you want to send me ;) can never have too many bolts!

I havn't chris, might give them a call tomorrow for some other bits I need

Yea fine and I doubt I'll be able to get any sooner than that. Got a front engine mount as well by any chance?

Hey all, I'm after some bolts from a vr6 engine. Originally planned to get them from vw but their prices are extortionate for bolts! And my working hours make it highly difficult to pick stuff up. I just need the thermostat housing bolts, the three that bolt to the head, the alternator mounting bracket bolts and tensioner bracket bolts. The last lot are for an r32 engine but I presume they are the same Anyone got them kicking about?

That's awesome news, well chuffed with myself! Just sat I the living room doing some soldering at the moment. Kip what wires do I need for the speed in can bus format? I'm going to see how pin 54 treats me but make it easy to convert back. Never ever want to do this again!

I'm afraid I'm not 100% sure on the above because I'm working from a MK5/Audi A3 base, this has a fusebox in the engine bay so doesn't have all the coloured plugs. This is what I plan to do, T121 is the main ECU plug which is known as J220 in the wiring diagram, lets call the fusebox in the engine bay fusebox A, this has 2 big plugs going to it - T40 & T26. I'd appreciate if anyone has any comments or can confirm what I've done. F plug 1-Starter wiring, Use corrado wiring 3-Alternator wiring, Corrado G1 1-not used 2-Ambient air temp sensor, use corrado (connects to G2/2) 3-Fuel pump earth trigger, T121/65 4-Ignition live, T121/21 & Ignition coils (T40/33, fusebox A in engine bay) 5-Earth 6 7-ECU relay earth trigger, T121/23 8-fuel pump live (20A fused), Lambda sensors (T26/16 & T26/23 fusebox A) & MAF T26/9 9- 10-ECU relay ignition live, T121/3 11-Speed sender, I don't have this wire but needs putting in, think its T121/54? 12-Tacho signal, for the mk5 apparently I need to put a wire in T121/37 G2 1-Oil temp sender, use corrado 2-Ambient air temp sensor, use corrado (connects to G1/2) 3-Coolant temp sender, use corrado 4-PCV valve T40/26 5-unused 6-unused 7-unused 8-Fuel pump live, T40/37 9-Permanent live, T121/62 ECU - unsure about this as its unfused and needs a fuse, anyone confirm this? 10-Oil pressure switch, use corrado 11-Oil pressure switch, use corrado 12- Z - Injectors T40/21 An additional note, the 109 ecu relay will need changing for a no. 30 relay, unsure exactly why as yet so clarification on this would be good. Now I've got some questions I'm hoping people can answer a few questions please 1. I'm leaving the SAI wiring in, going to put a 330 ohm, 1/2 watt resistor in but there is a power feed to it, where has everyone given power to the SAI from? 2. Is there any difference between fuel pump relays? I was just going to leave the Corrado one in 3. Has everyone used the corrado blue temp sensor and swapped plugs or used the 24v one? It fits in the housing just wondering if it needs swapping 4. T121/66 to rad fan control unit, has everyone just cut this and left the corrado rad fan control unit to do its own thing? 5. N80, Variable valve timing does this go to G1/8? I have written this down somewhere but can't find it. Got a few more bits I need to check but I'll leave that here for now.

if it's mk4 base take a look here. The man above might be able to help, you did the conversion yourself didn't you Sean? http://www.clubgti.com/showthread.php?267196-OEM-MK4-management-wiring-gt-Mk1-2-3-harness-install-FAQ That would be useful if you could have a look Sean, I would like to have everything working when I do the conversion. Perksy I'm on my mobile at the moment but I'll do a full write up of what I'm planning on doing once I get a chance

I'm doing wiring from an Audi A3 3.2 point of view and had planned to reuse the VR6 fuel pump relay. Quick question for all those in search of mpg signal... have any of you got pin 81 connected from the ECU? T121/81 that is. I've been looking and it seems that I don't have a pin in T121/81 but apparently the 1.8t guys are saying that that is the MPG signal. It looks like the MPG signal on the corrado ECU is T68/51 which goes to a 1 pin plug near the fusebox, its a purple/white wire that connects to a white wire that then goes to T28/26. Some people are saying it is tacho related but it would be nice if it is the MPG signal. Also if anyone has done the wiring has a couple of minutes spare I wouldn't mind double checking my diagrams against theirs!

Kev, I read in another topic that you tried to use the standard VR downpipes to connect to the mk5 manifold. How did you get on with that? Do they need substantial modification? Well I'm doing the wiring myself and I'm about there, just a couple of bits I need to sort out now. Looking at the diagram I have 4 pins from the ecu relating to SAI stuff. One goes to the relay then to fusebox power, one to N220 exhaust flap valve (will be removed), one to N401 Suction jet pump valve (remove?) and one to N112 SAI inlet valve then fusebox power. So am I giving power to the relay and then disconnecting the valve? Or do I need to do something about the SAI valve as well? I can upload the diagram if it will help anyone to help me!

Well I need to check on what type mine are but I think they are the same as mk5 which come off at an angle unlike the mk4 ones that are angled downwards. Also they look a similar angle to the standard VR6 ones... interesting!

Yea, I've tried the email. Makes me think how the hell am I supposed to order anything if I can't get hold of him. On a separate note, does anyone know if the audi manifolds are different to the vw ones?

Yea been trying to get in touch with united motorsport but can I hell get hold of anyone, tried calling and emailing a number of times and no response.

Ahh nuts, spent yesterday going through the wiring and removed the sai stuff. Does this need to be in there for the ecu or can I get it mapped out? I just assumed that was one thing I could definitely delete. If I were to keep it what would I need to do with it to stop the ecu from throwing a hissy fit?

So have some people removed the N80 valve as others kept it? I had just assumed everyone was removing it so never gave it a second thought. I presume everyone has removed the SAI stuff though?

Quick question to anyone running mk5 r32's, I've picked up an audi a3 engine which unfortunately runs the non FPR fuel rail. I had initially planned to find a mk4/TT fuel rail and swap them over, but I read somewhere that it may cause fueling problems. Can anyone confirm if this is just a straight forward swap?

How much are you charging Leon?

Just having a read through that thread but in the meantime I'm having some trouble finding out information, basically I've been offered an Audi 3.2 BDB engine, can't seem to find much info on them. Anyone used one? Any big differences between that and the Mk4/5? I've read that the Audi 3.2 engines were pretty sorted from the start whereas the VW engines needed some updates but not sure really

Not sure if its of any interest to you but I have a set of lights I started to tint with the lamin-x sheets with cutouts for reverse lights, done one side and have the other side still to do. Its not a bad job but I prefer the painted look, all I want is some non tinted ones in return as I want to paint a set but don't want to waste half the lamin-x

I would love to do it myself, I can read a wiring diagram to a certain extent and I can solder pretty well but I would be a little worried about connecting up something wrong and wrecking the loom and ecu. I think I've got all the wiring diagrams but havn't been able to find any guides, unless you have found something I havn't

Apologies if this has already been covered, need to have another good read of this thread as I ended up selling my r32 engine but I'm hoping to have another engine soon. Anyway who is doing wiring loom conversions these days? Rang up vince to get prices and apparently he has given up doing it as he was spending too much time on the phone talking people through plugging it all up. Spoke to Mark at SWICT today and got prices but just shopping around at the moment!

I used to have a push button on my old corrado and can honestly say if I didn't have it, my car would have been stolen by some scumbag piece of $h*t. I have heard of someone doing something similar but I had problems with my push button, don't think it was a particularly expensive push button so every so often it would just not work for a few presses.

Just going to chuck a reply in here so I can find the thread when I need to, interested in the rear plinth. Also would absolutely love the fifteen52 tarmac 3 piece wheels, I presume I'd need to take out a mortgage for them though? 16x8 & 16x8.5.
