£400 is out of my league lol

hi dukest, yes mate im hoping and praying £300 is going to be enough! thats all i actually have lol

Hi all im in need of parts to do a gearbox conversion on a 1994 vr6 corrado, i need gearbox with all the bits incuding mount,flywheel,starter motor,pedal box with clutch master and slave cylinders with all the pipework, complete gear linkage with all the cables etc, interior gear shifter trim wth gaitor and knob, coolant pipes/top hose and thermo hose to expansion, im on a tight budget to get this corrado up and running ! If not shes going for scrap! :( would be a shame as its mint and only got 78k on the clock!

And im getting a 50% throtle position reading, even if i unplug it?

WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK? PLEASE HELP ! THANK YOU IN ADVANCE! :bonk:

thanks everyone for your help, think im just going to rip the peice of sh*t out and put a manual box in it. autos are more trouble than they are worth!

one more thing does anyone know where the oil drain plug and filter is on the gearbox? and i read somewhere that you cant just put atf straight in there, it has to be at a certain temparature or something? ? enlighten me peeps lol

thanks sam g40 and fla, sorry if it seemed a bit confusing but what i mean is that it will start in any position the selector is in, starts in drive,1.2.3. reverse and if im right in thinking it should only start in park or neutral? is the inhibitor switch on the selector? and fla, it feels like the clutch is sliping when you floor it, just revs its tits off and doesnt really go anywhere, ive only done this once as i know there is a problem and dont want to blow the box up lol, the noise goes away if i move the selector arm with my hand just a little bit! is there any adjustement for it aywhere? sorry for all the questons but its driving me insane lol :bonk:

Hi all, ive bought a vr6 corrado spares or repairs from a friend of mine and am in the midle of getting the old girl back on the road! got a problem where it still starts in drive and reverse or in any position the selector is in, what do you guys reckon this could be? it makes a whining noise in park and neutral aswell, but if you push the selector buton in and pull it away slightly it stops? HEEEELPPP its doing my head in! cheers in advance everyone :)

hi all im new to the forums, im an experienced mechanic especially with v dubs but i have a problem with an auto box that i cant get my head round! ive got a whining noise coming from the gearbox/torque conveter on an auto vr6 corrado whether its in park or neutral, but it seems to quiten down in gear, when you rev it in park or neutral you can feel vibration/imballance going through the car, it also sometimes stalls when you rev it hard in park or neutral! whats goin on what can it be ? any suggestions will be appreciated!! thanks in advance !

hi all new to the forum, im very experience with v dubs and the easiest way to remove seized carrier bolts if to buy a cheap 14mm socket and beat it onto the bolt head,comes out nice and easy!, the allen key heads are shi* lol
