  2. Hi looking for a bit of info I'm acquiring all the bits for my conversion got a amk engine stubby clutch master cylinder g60 box will look at intercooler and rad once the engine is in,just looking at wiring looms at the mo what is the best route to go Down should I get a amk ecu and loom and get it de coded and how do you get it remapped do you have to mount a diagnostics plug somewhere sorry if it sounds a dumb question ??
  3. Hi looking at getting all the bits to do the 20v turbo conversion on my valver obviously I know I need the engine but could anyone tell me what else I will need to acquire looking at a engine with 6 speed box what else would I need??
  4. Slider pins work fine yeah I've got some brembo rear pads that I've had lying around for a while dunno if they are the right thickness they seem really thick too thick for my calipers
  5. Having a bit of trouble changed my rear discs and pads today discs and bearing went fine but when I go to fit the calipers back with new pads they are so tight I have to hammer them back on in turn can't drive the car because they are too tight has anyone had this problem before I have wound the pistons back as far as they can go with the proper tool just seems like the new pads are too thick๐Ÿ˜ž๐Ÿ˜ž๐Ÿ˜ž???
  6. Anyone got any ideas what could be my problem as soon as I put a new fuse in it keeps blowing them straight away even with the pump un plugged??
  7. Hello just wondering if anyone has had this problem before I'm getting burnt exhaust fumes in the cabin and I've changed everything from new exhaust to boot seals I have narrowed it down to the rear boot vents as mine have been chewed through by some hungry mice has anyone heard of this before???
  8. I'm in the process of re fitting my timing belt on my corrado 16v and I line all the marks up cam is all lined up and crank is at tdc and put the belt on tension it up and the crank cog seems to turn a little but when I put tension on the belt is this ok have checked all the marks and they seem pretty close to me the crank timing mark is nearly right on the mark and the cam pulley is fine nothing hits when I turn over by hand just wondered if anyone has had this before??
  9. I'm in the process of putting my car back together after doing the head gasket and I'm struggling to find where to put a few wires I will take some pics to show.?
  10. In the process of doing my head gasket and need a little help timing the camshafts what is the best way I know the two dots should be parallel I can put the exhaust cam in fine but the inlet hits the tappers and you can't turn it what is the best way without breaking a camshaft retainer???
  11. In the process of changing my head gasket on my valver and just wondering would I be able to fit a multi head gasket and which one is best,and has anyone got any guides how to Time up the camshaft timing?

  13. Hello all I have a corrado 16v with a uprated wiring loom and it's perfect on dipped lights but when I go to main the dipped headlights go Dim and main lights come on dim any ideas???
  14. Fuel wipe? I get the smell of fumes on my clothes so it is pretty damn bad I've replaced all the injector lines and washers??
  15. I have asked this question before but still have not solved the problem things I have replaced to try and stop fumes coming through my window,new manifold plus all new gaskets new inlet plus gaskets new intake pipe new rubbers injectors and o ring only thing I haven't changed is the servo pipe and the 2 main fuel pipes does anyone have any ideas???
  16. Hello would you be able to Make Me some bolts for my crank breather and 5th injector and throttle body??
  17. Well I get a strong whiff of fuel through the windows all the time the top of metering head smells of fuel but no leaks checked all the exhaust again no leaks just a strong smell from the tank ie filler neck area all the time think it is time to bite the bullet and take it to a garage:-(
  18. Ok still getting fuel smel it seems to be coming from the tank area will have to drop it and have a look but would that make sense when you open the window drawing fuel smells in??
  19. All the plugs are the same there is nothing wrong with the fueling side because I have just had it set up on the rolling road the smell is like a rich fuel smell all the time just doesn't make any sense.
  20. Ok well my ht lead shouldn't smell of fuel I can't get my head around it it is un drivable!!!
  21. The plugs are grey is that normal I'm going to get some new plugs today and whip them in maybe in the past the thread has been cross threaded :-(
  22. Do your ht leads smell of raw fuel and it can't be normal to smell fuel through the vents and gives you a headache with the windows up or down so there is definately something there that's not normal it can't be right I can smell fuel on the ends of the ht leads.
  23. Yep it is all the lines are brand new I'm not getting any fuel leaks have had everything checked 10 times when I pull the ht leads off the plugs from the head smell the end of the lead it's like they have been diped in raw fuel??
  24. Right could anyone shed any light on this situation I have a vw corrado 16v fuel smell with windows slinky cracked and now I'm getting it even through the vents now with the windows up before you say i have replaced the manifold gaskets like a thousand times replaced all the seven pipes from the metering head new inlet gaskets new throttle body gaskets new air intake pipe new air box new everything and I'm at a loss it's un drivable :-(when I tool the ht leads off I could smell really rich smell of fuel down in where the spark plugs are is this normal??
  25. When it often the tensioner up I have to tighten it a lot so that it doesn't slacken off and lossen the belt am I turning it the right way clockwise??
