it was cheap doing that ye but for cam followers its £89,for a driveshaft its £90 and a new throttle cable is £30,then labour on top will add up :( oh well its got to be done!

had a good look at the vacky pipes and found one of them had come off,put it back on and its sorted the problem out :D its going in this week for a new set of cam followers and a new drive shaft as the drivers side is clunking on full lock, more expense but worth it

There aint any white ones around my area either...well none that ive seen! Heres mine http://www.the-corrado.net/.archive/forum/viewto ... 22&start=0 ive uploaded some more pics asive had it out tonight just to give it a quick drive as she has been in the garage for a while now. she looks nice after a good clean, noticed tonight that im going to have to replace a drive shaft as mines clunking abit, gutted :(

she looks tidy mate,not a bad price you paid for it either. i had a steal with mine though £595 with fk coilovers on and other bits and peices. its going to the garage tomorrow for new cam followers and service. im also winning a g60 on ebay at the mo with a blown charger so ill let you know what happens there :D at this rate ill have to build another garage,but the missis aint to pleased :shock: oh well lol

lol,your not the first one to say leave it as it is.i think ill have too now.a new set of rims and she will look alot better. i always make sure shes washed and t-cutted before she goes back in the garage as it pays to look after them in the long run.ill never sell it though as im going to spend quite abit on her but no to much that it spoils it as some people go to far i think :salute:

lol, i dont think ive seen a white one round were i live either. always a bonus if there aint many the same colour. you got any pics of yours at all?

think i found the problem,there seems to be a hole in the rubber elbow to the throttle boby. its seems to me that there has been a screw screwed into it at sometime,gods knows why.i put some tape over it for know and it seems to be better,ill take it for a spin this week and let you all know. thanks for all your help,hopefully this is the problem :clap:

i wasnt that keen on white at first but when the sun is out and its t cutted it stands out really well and looks mint. i havent seen many white ones around here either.

she is slammed alrite,bit much though for me. i want to put some bigger wheels on so she will have to come up slightly. i had a bargain with it really as it only cost me £595. its got a folder full of receipts,fk coilovers,full scorpian boxer system,new bushes,bearings etc loads of stuff. i had to travel 5 hours on a train to pick her up but it was worth it. my missis bought it me for a present as i wrote my show rado off last year,gutted. its going to be off the road for 6 months then the beast will be unleashed :D im going to keep uploading pics of it as it transforms so keep an eye out

thanks for that,ill have a look later on today. glad its that simple :D :salute:

can anyone one tell me were to find the cold start valve on a 1.8 16v and if its a big job to replace?

cheers,the bloke i bought it of said it was dropped 100mm.im going to raise it slightly due to so many speedhumps.

got loads planned for it, wheels is a first im sure you will agree. its a 1.8 lump but going to put a bigger one in,not sure yet what to go for. ill keep uploading pics of her as she transforms into how i want it to look.

here she is

ok mate ill have a good look and check it. ill post what i find,cheers
