Well that truly sucks and I hope it wasn't sold to you like that intentionally as that's a real dick move if it was. Fun how he hasn't appeared on here to defend himself! But that's just me being cynical as I've caught short in a similar situation with my first VR6. Low compression in 3 cylinders but didn't find out untill after i purchased it but as you say you live and you learn. Best of luck with what ever venture you take with it

The VR6 is back up and running now :cheers:

Can't be that bad if it was driven home

Baby blue Corrado spotted in Cinderford today at around 4ish

Haha yeah you don't want to leave VR6 in charge of changing your name

I do enjoy watching this guys videos easy to follow and full of information

Great work mate. Are you spraying it yourself? Mine needs body work so trying to get an idea of the cost of a full respray

You'll be fine mate. Just take your time and just double check each time

You're over thinking it mate. As long as it's properly seated before you start lift g the car you won't have any issues

I've always gone where the green arrow is or just either side of it.

Haha indeed. Where are all the old ones now ey

Those were the days Forums so quiet now

:scratch:wow

He back.....:thumbleft:

Ok mate. VW heritage do them for £25 But it's out of stock. If I get stuck then I'll be in contact. Appreciate the offer

How much you looking for it mate?

Well the corrado threw it's first wobble today. Pulled up at some traffic lights to see what I thought was smoke bellowing out from under the bonnet. Fortunately it was steam. The hose that goes from the cylinder head to the heater matrix split chucking water all over the exhaust manifold heat shield. Fun times

Join the club mate i hardly done anything on my last one so want to learn and get hands on with this one. One word of advice is get yourself a Bentley corrado manual if you haven't already

Cheers james. Ill keeo this thread updated as and when I do things

Had a few "subtle" upgrades done over the last month. Had a custom remap done by CrazyDave. Found out it already had a map chip installed but Dave's map is better balanced and gives better performance all round. Today I installed a BMC CDA they're worth their weight in gold just for the sound they produce. Next on the list is to sort a small bit of rust behind the rear bumper then time to start collecting parts for the under side refresh.

Green corrado driving through Cinderford about 30 mins ago. Didnt catch what flavour

Ahhh perfect cheers Dave now I know where to go come pay day

Dave does this include the metal strap that goes around the bmc?

The rev counter has started to have a intermittent falt. Some times it won't work at all and some times it's going crazy flicking all over the place and the rest of the time it works fine. Any suggestions on what to look at?

Welcome back. I'm just down the road from you in the Forest of Dean so will keep an eye out for you :thumbleft:
