payment sent just now

I'll take the brake line clips please. Will send you some dosh later

gutted i missed this. let me know if for whatever reason the sale falls through

i'm not sure about the original et but think it will be 35 also. these can be done in 5 stud but i'll need to get back to them and probably start another group buy because it is a special order and could possibly have to be a different order being 5 stud

what are the isv from? if 2.0 16v 9a i'll take one

I've been in touch directly with the UK importers for Speedline wheels about buying a set of the 2110 Challenge alloys which are a very close match to the original vr6 speedline wheels to fit my 16v, so 4x100 fitment. The size for the wheels are 16x7 inch, et35 and will have to confirm the weight but from memory are 8ish kg. The reason for the group buy being that these wheels are no longer made but the casts do exist in Italy and can be made to order with the minimum number to get the correct fitment, offset and centre bore being 24 wheels (6 sets). The price for 4 wheels is £552 inc. VAT which is a saving of £108 off retail (if you can find a set anywhere!) These are quite a rare wheel and this is a great opportunity to own a set example pictures taken from vortex: 15" next to 16" I'll start by working on a list of 6 sets but can expand if there is more demand. Get your name down now, i'm keen to get things moving: 1.odub 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.

good luck with this and keep the pictures coming

pics from the summer when the new engine loom went in and some from tonight, taken on my crap camera phone (sorry) the rust around the rear badge that started this whole short project parcel shelf supports modified to fit over the rear strut brace let me know what you think

model number MRP-F240 360w, 4-channel in good condition, never used hard, not too heavy or large £50 ono located in colchester, essex

i'm seriously looking to getting some of these in 16". if i can sort a group buy discount would there be any more interest?

i'll be up for one in a month or two. slightly scared by the amount i have spent on the car lately

there's a possibility i'll have my corrado back on the road then so will be up for it. if not i'll come anyway

How's this looking neil?

they look good, i'd like some in 4 stud fitment

I haven't updated this for a long time now. I've had my corrado nearly four years and it's still not anywhere near the standard i want it at but is no longer my daily after buying a fiat doblo cargo. So the car is in the workshop for a lot of work. This will be verging on a full respray and may well turn into that. Smooth out the hole for the wiper in the tailgate, plate the hole for the rear vw badge, dob weld into the corrado badge holes, remove rear tow eye and smooth out the rear bumper to suit, front wishbones off and painted, rebush entire front end, new front wheel bearings, possibly smooth out number plate recess in bumper, change all light units for ones in better condition (have these), refurb D90 alloys in white, fit braided brake lines all over, replace rear hard brake lines, fit rear strut brace. I've also got an original Italvolanti steering wheel to go on and am in two minds on what to do with the interior, leather or semi-stripped. I'm in no hurry to get the car back so there may be more added including a 20v turbo if my funds stretch that far. I'll get pictures up as work progresses. It's amazing how much you can get done when the car isn't needed for daily use

Does anyone know if a mk4 ford escort has the same spline size as on a corrado, so is it possible to swap steering wheels?

I will take one. Will call and pay monday, also are there any pictures you could put up? thanks

Ordered yesterday and arrived this morning. Thanks Neil

could you put me down for a front grille red 16v badge please. I'll give you a shout tomorrow. thanks, oli

found it!

I have a spare somewhere. pm me if you're interested

are the hanging points not different?

could be different due to age of car and change over year. is it from a 2.0 or a 1.8?

i've had no end of problems with my 2.0 16v most of which was caused by the lamda sensor in the exhaust and then confused by replacing with a cheapish one (£30 odd). Moral of the story is use decent parts either VW or bosch. a fair bit more expensive but cheaper in the long run. I'd also run the car in to a descent garage to get the codes read. my local vw did this for no charge. good luck

this was looking like a great build, any more updates?
