blaarado

putting this up for a friend, he,s looking for an ecu for a g60, he can be contacted at this email,[email protected].

anyone seen the star letter in pvw, seems to be in line with this thread, some lad has had misery with his corrado,s and thinks it should never be considered a classic car because of all the hardship they give

ok got a cable from eurocar parts, has the ball end(early)and they said it was for early corrado, so ill report back if it fits properly, as early ones are obsolete from vw

does anyone know if the later cables will fit on the earlier cars, i done a search but nothing definitive, i know about the tubing, but with them being a different lenght and different ends (early, round, late, bar), or can i get the early cables from somwhere like gsf, thanks

bought bushes from vw, part number,8no 407 182 a, they look like they will just fall threw the hole at the rear of the wb, they also dont look like the ones iv seen in pics, the ones i have a big lip on top and then it tapers down to the end, are their different types? http://saiding.en.alibaba.com/product/383353471-213252674/AUDI_PARTS_A3_TT_Control_Arm_Bushing_8N0_407_182_A.html ARE THESE THE FRONT ONES ---------- Post added at 6:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 6:23 PM ---------- ah i see now, its b i want not a, problem solved, after i had to shift loads of cars out of me mates garage last night to get up on the lift only to find i had the wrong bushes, doh,

ya legend, gona do this tomorrow

i used a later set of clocks and used a vss out of 1.8t gearbox, you can get the speedo working but i cant remember exactly how i did it right now so ill have have a look tomorrow, there was some wiring and splicing involved, as for the tacho, im not sure the tacho will work without modification either,someone else did that for me (swict) also the inicator lights on the instruments panel have to be wired differently and the oil light will keep flashing, but these are easy enought to fix, i asked these questions before and someone gave me the now how on how to do it, if u want to check my posts, i think its under "g60 clocks into 16v or somthing like that, ill get back to ya on the speedo issue anyway

nice one dg

right so, anyone know where to get door seals, ill presume vw dont do them anymore

foud this place they seem to have a lot of corrado stuff volksport audimotive, they have the screw caps for the instruments panel the ones that go in the corners on the front if they,er the one your talking about ---------- Post added at 7:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 7:51 PM ---------- they,er on page twelve in the corrado section,

after my car was resprayed i fitted the door seals back on, im getting rain and air in threw the doors, the rain comes in threw the top of the passenger door and the air comes in just buy where the window frame starts by the outside door handle, i can actually see light coming threw from the inside at this point, i loosend the door strikes and pushed them in as far as they would go this seemed to help a bit with the water getting in but the air getting in has perplexed me it almost looks like im missing a piece where the air gets in, the door panel lines look quiet good, as you look along the body lines it doesnt look like the door needs to be pulled in or let out a bit, iv tried a few things to fix it but maybe im missing a trick or somthing, so i said id post the issue up here, its a bit annoying when your driving along and you get a draft on the back of your arms and im sure its adding road noise into the car

id like the blue back lighting too, also would it be possible to have 20vt instead of the g60 logo on the late g60 dials, in the same font?

thanks for the quick replys guys, does the loud hissing noise mean that the fuel pump is on the way out?

hi all, hopefully someone might be able to help me out with this, did i read somewhere that the fuel pump from later corrados had a higher bar rating(4 bar) than earlier ones, i have a 1990 1.8kr spec car with a 20vt engine and the fuel pump is making a loud hissing noise since i put the 20v in, its been running fine but id like to change it soon as its bound to fail at the worst possible time of coarse(eg;when im a few hundred miles from home some day) and is it a direct fit or are there any mods to do.

as the cowls are obsolete could the ajustable cowls be modified to fit or are they just too different

iv come across a 1990 1.8kr corrado lying up in a garage for a few years now, same year and engine as my own, but this one has the digifizz dash in, would these be a direct fit to my own car, i have allready put in the later digital clocks and harrness

cheers for the comments lads, intercooler is a forge universal, still on the fence meself about the position of it, havent had any issues with it yet do.

cheers pete, the lights are the crystal m3 style lights with lamin x over the clear part on top, you can just make out in the picture the chrome plastic inbetween the red,im not liking it gona have to paint out the chrome bits

just thaught id trow this up it might be usefull to somebody, when i was doing my 20vt conversion using a 01 ibiza cupra, i used the gear box from the ibiza so the original gear change cable ends were different from the ibiza ends so i went about seeing if i could fit the whole lot(gear lever and gear lever box and cables) from the ibiza into the corrado, so i took out the corrado stuff and the gear lever box fitted straight in with no modifications whatsoever so now the gear change is much smoother with the new (01) gear change

thaught it was about time i put some pics up of the car, these were taken by a friend on the way to the vage (volkswagon,audi group enthusiaste club) should have some standing pics soon

hi all does anyone know how i can wire up the aux waterpump, can i just wire it into the ignition or does it have to be wired into the fans system

sweet,just wat i wanted, thank u very much mikki i knew sombody on hear would have the info, love this forum

iv done a 20v conversion, using standard managment and me rev clock only works with digital clocks also the ecu needs to read a vss, would i be better off trying digifizz clocks as they came in 1.8 16v,s?

i need to put g60 clocks into my dash, i done a search and there was a guy called ,kevin. who sent a how to diagram to someone else but he hasent been on here in a while, does anyone know if he,s still on here or does anyone else know how to do this, the problems that there seems to be is the indicators, the speedo and the coolant temp light stays flashing cheers

ill take one of these, can u pm me details of were to send money
