Hi, I thought I'd share my ebay listing on here as it could be of interest to somebody. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=332130002615#ht_1521wt_1271 The below is the ebay Ad text. Any questions my number is 07814908684 Cheers, Simon Hi, I've reluctantly decided to sell my Corrado 1.8T for parts. The car never actually got back on the road for more than a few miles after the conversion - I caused quite a bit of damage to the drivers door and A pillar by reversing into the garage without closing it. With the repairs and the full respray the car already required means that I'd be better off breaking it for parts. I've been building this up over the last few years and I think it makes sense given the time and effort to offer it as a complete conversion. To give a brief bit of history: The Corrado started off as a 1994 2.0 16v and I stripped it right back and smoothed the engine bay, shot blast and repowder coated the subframe and front cross members and built it back up with Powerflex bushes and new OE parts throughout. The conversion was made by using the engine and full wiring loom from a MK4 Golf 1999 1.8 Turbo with a AGU (large port head). I extended the wiring loom and ran it in across the chassis leg so all wiring is hidden from view. - All MK4 wiring, clocks, ECU and Keys are included in the sale. You could either do the same conversion or run a Qpeng harness to save a lot of time with re-routing wiring and changing clocks etc. Everything worked perfectly and it plugged into Vag Com as if it was a MK4 Golf. I can send more pictures and a video of the engine running (just before it came out) if you'd like to drop me a line. I worked in the automotive industry a number of years and all parts used are either OE or an upgrade. Running Gear Etc Subframe - Shot blast and re-powder coated. Front Cross member - Shot blast and re-powder coated and built up with Powerflex bushes New OE wishbones (bought bare) with Powerflex bushes. New OE Steering rack (New old stock) and Powerflex bush. New OE hubs (with ABS ring) New OE wheel bearings New OE ARB ends New OE Ball joints New OE trackrod ends with heat shrink wrapping ready to go. New OE ABS Sensors New OE ARB Bushes and hardware. Reconditioned VR6 Driveshafts with new outer CV joints and Boots inner and outer Rallye rear engine mount (Stiffer) VW Motorsport front mount (Very stiff) Custom Pirtek powersteering hose (matches up to MK4 power steering pump) Engine Etc 1.8 Turbo (AGU Engine code) removed from a 1999 MK4 Golf - 132,000 miles Gearbox standard MK4 02J box with the output flanges from a diesel box (to accept the VR6 Driveshafts) Standard KO3 Turbo Polished inlet manifold New gaskets and seals throughout 2.5" intercooler pipework throughout Silicone hoses for the most part Alu Intercooler Slim line radiator fans (plug into loom) Large Oval K&N air filter Custom Pirtek clutch hose MK4 ABS pump Seat inbize cupra downpipe (2.25") wrapped in DEI heat wrap New OE (Bosch) Lambda Sensor MK2 Golf 1.3 Accelerator cable (longer) Powersteering Bottle (Red Cap) Washer jet Bottle (Green Cap) Extended wiring loom (I ran it around the wing and basically had all the wiring entering over the from engine mount) made for a super smooth engine bay) Clocks, ECU and Key - All need to be used in conjunction with one another otherwise the ECU will immobilise. I think that's about it.. It's everything to see in the photos above. I can send some more pictures and a video of the engine running if you drop me a message. Every thing was perfect with the engine and it pulled really hard, this would make for a great conversion for anyone looking to upgrade their engine with the benefit of getting all the reconditioned running gear etc. I also have a reconditioned Rear beam and 2.25" Stainless exhaust with hidden tail pipe which I'll list in a separate listing. Obviously will be collection only - I'm 15 mins south of Cambridge between the M11 and A1. Cash on collection preferred. If you've got any questions please drop me a line. Cheers, Simon

Hi, I’m selling my set of genuine 16” BBS RS – 7” Wide – ET24 – 4x100. Absolutely perfect fit for all 4 stud Golfs and Corrados etc. Have just been built up and sealed this week after having the Mike the Polisher treatment. All work -Polishing and Powder Coating carried out only a few weeks ago. (Started off life as a mint set of BBS RS035 5x114.3 16x7.0 ET+24 which had come over from Japan) All 4 wheels are identical and are made up of: 5.5" Inners and 1" outer lips all round (polished). Centres – Professionally filled and re-drilled then lathed down so are completely smooth. Retained the alignment lugs for the waffle plates. Then I’ve had them powder coated in original BBS Silver by Mike the polisher a couple of weeks ago. Waffle plates – All in perfect condition, powder coated a few weeks ago and all have the alignment tags intact 1” Outer lips – All original BBS and polished by Mike the Polisher a couple of weeks ago Inner Barrels - completely original and in great condition Nuts – Choice of either: ## Half height nuts – Absolutely pristine, Polished by Mike the polisher a few weeks ago. ## Full Height nuts – I bought them a while back as I prefer the full height. Polished, great condition. (You’ll see both sets of nuts used in the pictures. Probably best to pick which ones you want on collection, and I’ll sell the other set.) I’ve also got the 4 retaining clips so the waffle plate and nuts don’t fall apart every time you take them off. Bolts – Brand new chrome bolts – all torqued up (with Loctite) Will come with all the necessary extras to bolt straight up: Spigot rings - 4 x 73mm > 57.1mm (for 4 stud VW etc) Tuner Bolts x 16 BBS Spanner x 1 It’s the complete package and is all absolutely mint! I'm looking for £1600 Any questions please just ask, text or call – 07814 908 684

Hi, I'm looking to replace my dash with a Black one as my dark grey is now pretty tatty. Must be in great condition Don't necessarily need any of the switch gear but the under trays and the top vents and covers are required. Hopefully someone out there is breaking one?! Cheers, Simon

Hi Dave, Is this still available? Many thanks, Simon

Hi Guys, I'm in need of a front bumper from a late car. Ideally with bumper irons, plastic grill and spoiler. I'm based between London and Cambridge so if any one is breaking a car in this area that would be awesome. I've had my eye on eBay and the like for a while and not come across anything which is in decent condition or hundred of miles away! Please let me know if you've got anything or know of anyone. Many thanks, Simon

Corrado Heat Shield Hood Liner (New Group Buy)
16vStyle replied to Southie's topic in Forum Group-Buys
Reviewed mine yesterday! Perfect, thanks for organising :) Simon ---------- Post added at 3:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 3:10 PM ---------- Received even! Not 'reviewed' it yet! -
Yes, I carefully mounted the fans through the radiator core and used the ties/straps supplied with the fans :) ---------- Post added at 4:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 4:31 PM ---------- Cool, I've bought a cable along with the 'Full' Vagcom/ VCDS Software... Seller had the most descriptive listing and the good feedback so hopefully it will all work OK!

Thought I'd do bit of an update after managing to spend another couple of days working on the Rado. Got the servo and ABS pump mounted and ran all new lines throughout the car, just need to pick up an OBD2 cable and software now so that I can purge the ABS pump and bleed the system. Mounted up the engine again and finished 90% of the wiring, just got the headlight connectors and wiper motor left to fit now. Mounted the new radiator and fans too. Felt good being able to fill it with coolant for the first time and run the engine up to temperature properly. Also go the power steering filled and the clutch bled so was able to drive it out of the garage for the first time in 5 years! Once I've got the brakes bled, headlights and tail lights hooked up and the body panels back on I should be ready for the MOT. Will be interesting once I've picked up an OBD2 reader to see if it's throwing up any errors.. Does anyone have any recommendations on these? Seems to be a bit of a minefield - especially eBay.. Obviously the cheaper the better :) Cheers Simon

Sorry mate, don't know much about the qpeng stuff, I've used the mk4 loom. Simon

I've used these guys before.. http://www.transporterhire.co.uk/ Self drive flat bed with winch, was £95 for 24 hours and I picked up near gatwick but they have national coverage. Can't fault them, a great service. Simon
