Handling is similar but the Corrado feels sharper and livelier.

Your car looks brilliant. It's great to see something a bit different

The engine is running. I had a few issues that held me up but have swapped out the crank position sensor this morning and it fired right up. There's still a lot of tidying up of cables and other things to do but I've run it up to temperature and once I've changed the oil, I'll start driving it

I've had 3 GTIs and absolutely love them. They are fairly similar to drive to the Corrado but the Corrado is another level. You will notice the difference on the Golf with the cable clutch and rod gear change. The thing I liked about them is that parts are generally cheaper and easier to find

Saying that, I have a 323 5x100 disc spare that you could try

which calipers are you using?

i'd have bought them although I already have some

I've started to use tapatalk after you mentioned it

Thanks. It's all starting to take shape but the more i do, the more i realise needs doing. Like the screen wash bottle needs relocating, this will probably end up in the boot Sent from my SM-G388F using Tapatalk

I hate wiring! Have finished all but a couple of connections to the fuse box so it should run in theory very soon as long as I haven't ballsed it up. My loom has different connectors for the knock sensors I have but the loom does fit the connectors to the 9a knock sensors that I took out. Does anyone know of any reason I shouldn't use 9a sensors on an AGU loom and ecu?

Cheers, I'm very relieved but getting bored of wiring now. Glad you've made progress with yours

So the engine was put in on Monday. I've just realised that it is now Friday and I have spent all week in the garage! Getting close to finishing though, just have to plug in the wiring and sort the coolant plumbing Sent from my SM-G388F using Tapatalk

Those wheels will look the business on the mk3. It's a shame the corrado isn't five stud

Interested in the splitter. Where are you located?

I have the 16v box still but have ended up using the diesel gearbox for now. Let me know îf you're interested Thanks

I've just measured my car at 94cm, same as yours. I can't get to my bumper at the moment but I know it fits. Is it something silly like the brackets are on back to front?

Another useful update. A Corrado tailgate will also fit inside the boot of an A4 avant. It's also much easier to get in than a bonnet

Sounds like a deal. Where is the car located? If possible I could come for a look if you don't mind. Thanks

I would be interested in the tailgate and maybe some other items if in good order. Unfortunately I can't take an entire shell. thanks

Are there any good recommendations for other hosting sites?

I've got a pair of black ones if they are any use?

Good choice. I bet you can't wait

Could I have the parcel shelf support straps please? Send me your details and I'll get some dosh to you soon Thanks

Nice buy. I've had a really good look around this car at shows and it is a beauty

More progress. I've been after a carbon bonnet for years but really haven't had the money for one and then I learnt recently that LWS Design who produced them has folded. Luckily one came up on eBay which I bought immediately. It's also full carbon and has never been fitted Got it home in my wagon And fitted I had the boys in the stainless department at work sort me out with a 3" MAF housing to go with the Badger5 TIP And a Trackslag charge pipe to keep the 2 1/2" pipe work throughout
