  2. Found some on my phone Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. I'll get a pic tomorrow, nothing fancy, just used offcuts of box section, an old dexion shelf and an abandoned Metro wheel.
  4. I think mines a bit taller than that? I've modified it to hold a quick release clip on shelf at the bottom that my mig sits on and a similar set up above using a Metro rim to wind my compressor hose around as it gets so little use as a press.
  5. I have one of these https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/281634075178
  6. This is the set I bought off a forum member for corrado upgrade with a mk3 golf vr6 set fro tierod69 on ebay Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. It might be worth mentioning if its a standard alloy or space saver spare? 4 or five stud etc

  9. That's exactly why I'm sceptical lol

  11. I'm not sure I've seen a N/A VR6 with a dyno proven 245BHP? But actually that BHP means nothing, you could achieve that with race cams and a map, but the idle would be awful, driving around town the car would be very flat with lots of gear changes etc. For a road car its more about driveability so mods need to be matched and aim for improvements at most RPMs with a larger area underneath the dyno graph, not just above 5K RPM. I've been collecting parts for some years to build an engine / gearbox combo for enjoyable fast road use, I have a spare full block and head still on it, another head with minimal pitting around the waterways, 3L pistons, Schrick mani, lightened flywheel, 3.6 FD gearbox internals that I want inside a VR6 box, I want 268 cams. Maybes are an LSD and lightened and balanced crank. I expect around 230 BP and 200 flb of torque, but want the car to pick up and pull well from any RPM in any gear (within reason). I'm surprised more don't try nitrous oxide for the amount of time we actually spend at wide open throttle?
  12. I have a pair of mk3 hoses and a goodridge set too, I'll compare fronts over the next day or so
  13. Do you know in what way? The only thing I've ever heard mentioned is the pitch on the thread thread of the banjo bolt can differ? ie you need the correct bolt for the calliper thread?
  14. Has the head been skimmed? Was the cover skimmed by the same amount too?
  15. I'm afraid it doesn't, the earliest cars are coming up to 30 years old and may well have been retro fitted with late parts and due to scarcity of late wings, late cars may well have early wings. Its a Jungle out there - hence why I'm holding on to a late pair in mystic blue just in case (I also did a 200 mile around trip to get a pair of classic green wings for my storm). The difference in early and late is only the rounded part of the arch is further out - think riveted on wide arch conversions of old, just a little bit more subtle.
  16. They went to late panels when the VR6 came out (92 model), cross over cars are a mix and match, yours will be late for the wider track of the VR6
  17. You could take the sensor out and crank the engine over with a spanner on the bottom pulley whilst peering inside its oriface?
  18. Is the upper cover off another engine?
  19. Battery disconnected! Unplug the socket from the sensor, unplug the round connector on the loom, meter set to ohms scale, probes in the "common" and "Ohms" connections on the meter and touch the probe on the wires on each end. All 3 should show a similar resistance. If no faults found you'll have to go back t the ecu in similar fashion after reconnecting the round plug
  20. The car was originally registered in Staffordshire (CEH), so its not migrated far in 25 years GLWS
  21. It might be worth mentioning whereabouts in the country you are? And removing the windscreen sticker, we're a bit too old for that sort of thing here lol http://the-corrado.net/showthread.php?98846-average-Corrado-owners-age&p=1144658#post1144658
