I have a 4motion MK4 sump ready to use when needed, being cast alloy the flange doesn't distort like a steel sump when you tighten the bolts up into the gasket. Put a straight edge across the row of bolt holes on your old or replacement steel sump too see how distorted they are and the likelihood of seepage.

Petty much that, the Schrick fills the hole on the power curve usually weakened by the longer duration cams. For a road engine its better to view the area underneath the power curve rather than max power at XXXXRPM

Wed60 Today only No codes for 2 weeks then they woke up to why business was so quiet...

I've never seen anyone flamed here for asking questions, we all share what we know to anyone who asks. This forums search is notoriously poor.

263s for standard engines and 268s for engines with Schrick VGis or pierberg VSRs according to Stealth via Kev Bacon from a few years ago.

Try kufatec for the looms and MJ interiors for the seat foams

I’d look for a replacement hatch and swap it over. Large panels rarely sell because people won’t put themselves out to collect them in person so they’re cheap. Rust free wins over a repaired panel every time for me, I’ve driven 100s of miles for the correct panel in the correct colour, usually early on a Sunday morning to avoid traffic

I’d be looking for something like this. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F263747513068 Dvla mileage indicates it’s genuine, it was an auto so it’s had a nice easy life without labouring and unlikely to have been thrashed either. A top end overhaul and a chain kit would leave change from a grand if you get your hands dirty

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vw-Corrado-Vr6-Rear-Axle/283165932365?hash=item41ee013b4d:g:pIEAAOSw2aVacEMA This has been for sale for ages. Its the only one on ebay, but you may find another in a "breaking" or "wheel bolt" advert?

Hot air rises, the bonnet is only sealed on the rear edge so heat will leave via the bonnet to wing gaps and via the grill when the fans aren't running. The bonnet itself will act as a heat soak radiating the heat into the atmosphere.

I kept my spare because it was to my eyes good, when I posted a pic of it in a wanted ad the enquirer wanted a better one, so my good is anothers poor? I think MK2 is wider? MK3 even wider?
-
The last discussion I remember came to the conclusion all rear axles are the same between models? I have a G60 axle behind the shed, not sure what good condition is for a 25+ year old axle? I'm a long way from Perth too.

Mounted far too low in a Corrado and make you paranoid, I'll stick with my period cassette mount that cost £8

It looks like the spoiler is lowered too?
-
The pic was taken at a reasonable height so shows how effective it would be - far better than inside the screen - see the light reflecting off it in the same pic? I bet Fuzzer has loads of spoilers hanging around - I've skipped 2 I couldn't sell.

I doubt it

They should disconnect the battery before welding or use a gismo across the battery terminals to prevent spiking.

Henny drilled the rear spoiler and fitted individual LEDs in its edge, he made a very neat job of it.
