that car is my fav ever C but thoes rims are too small, it looked awesome before, i even prefer it with bump strips.

looks bloody awesome that!

looks cool! :D

ive been happy with the outside for a while, and have now shifted focus to "liven up" performance a bit. Ive removed all exhaust boxes, execpt cat and back box. Highly recomend torque technique in wilton, salisbury for custom exhausts. Ive had the notorious KR inlet cam swap. and bought / fitted one of thoes £35 ebay chips. The increase in performace is well worth the cost of doing the bits and bobs, although not setting the world on fire its made it more fun to drive and less boggy. any one got any more ideas fore making it a bit quicker????

i had the rear arches pulled 3/4" each side which had completly done the trick, no rubbing, low ride and can still take people in the back, even over big bumps when the whole car compresses. It wasnt cheap to do £240 before paint, but the job is flawless, and parked next to a stock corrado, it looks PHATER at the back. The job was done by Shaun at Creative Colour Workshop in poole (nr bournemouth) i use 215 / 40 / 16 on my 9" borbets

Just wondered if any one had got the ebay chip, and fitted it them selves and could shed any light on the fitting procedure and what results they have had????

mine does this too, maybe its common ?

top work :D

just to update my latest bodgery a reiger style grill with top bar colour coded only and 90mm chin from a g60 replacing my 50mm one. and diy rear lights

how do you get the bulb out? ddoes the switch / light thing prize outwards????

Hi i just read in an unrelated post that the abs light should come on when you first turn on the ign? mine does nothing, and seems to lock up when braking in anger! any ideas?

your car is awesome, red raddos kick ass!!!!

right im on a mission, cheers buddy

Is there any one out there who makes nice shiny cages for a corrado?????

cheers for the comments guys. :wave:

With the swap of cam detailed in the performance guide, do you just swap the inlet one or both?

i tried rolling the arches, with a homemade roller but with no luck - still rubbng a lot. then got the arches pulled 3/4" each sid by CCW this mullered the paint, but shaun filled and prep'd it fore me in a nice oxide rat look stylee. this left me in a dilemma, what to do with the paint, because i wasnt sure if i want to spend a fortune on the car. If i got just the rear 1/4's done it may not match. And £800 for both whole sides is fair bit to spend out on the car. So in true low budget style had ago at painting / blending etc the rear arches with a £10 rattle can and a lot of wet/dry polish i got a really good finish, which you can hardly tell and blend in paint, and the colour is spot on, although its not 100% it good enough to keep me happy until i decide what to do.

then i wanted borbets, ive wanted them although common for ages; they rubbed like this a lot

i got board with the monster truck stance; although not amazing the £200 ebay specials have done the job

i bouhgt the car at the end of feb this year, i got it from a friends girlfriend. it looked like this after its first polish - a tidy 2l 16 valver with 4 owners before me.

here it is; [list=]

cheers guys, that is appreciated! The parts that you fitted from a mk2 golf? are these std parts or uprated? cheers Ollie

Hi there, ii currently own a 2.016v corrado on an m reg which i original bought as a run around after i sold my s3. I have unfortunatley kind of fallen for the corrado, not because it is quick but just as it has its own unique personality, and is fun. Im after more power and have considered a 20 vt conversion, but on the other hand i was wondering if any one on here has actually tunned one of these engines and with what results? I have read the tuning guide, but i want to know if spending a load of money on this engine is worth it? fun to drive, etc.. cheers Ollie

what is the main hassel with the conversion? how long will it take me ( a novice) and a competent friend who is an aircraft engineer to complete? is using std management a nightmare?
