  1. what injectors are you running + turbo...? its only a starting map but i could try yours if thats ok?
  2. I think that the conclusion was that with the doors being soooo heavy on a Corrado, you'd end up having to put some SERIOUS re-enforcement into the hinge area and there simply may not be space for that amount of steel in there... :| well they have found a way... here is a pic of the mech they use
  3. I'll go one step further and post a pic of them on here as well, I just can't take my eyes of them.....!! I have problems...lol Thanks J, are you regretting it now...?
  4. Got some video clips and new pics here.... http://www.digitechnik.com/Ben enjoy...
  5. they are poss to take out... but be careful!!!!!!!!!
  6. jim, going to get some better vids then i'll send them to you, thanks Ben
  7. firstly, I have some very small and bad quality clips of my car starting and sounding rough as hell but would anyone be able to host them (about 6x 500k)...?? let me know... will post more pics tomorrow, knacked and off to bed now!
  8. Seat 305mm discs( which are a bit small we decided and I could go bigger...) The calipers are of a Boxster S, nightmare to fit though as I have had to sand away the pads by about 50%....
  9. The next engine for mine is a 24v I think... next's years project..
  10. It started today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Losts of smoke and it sounded like a scooby on cocain but not bothered at this stage! Will get the brakes, clutch and gearbox oil sorted tomorrow, sort a few other things and it should be ready for its first drive by tues/wed!!!!! so pleased! P.S Thanks to Paul Downing for helping me!!!! much respect 8) gave it a wash down and took a couple of pics, will get the video footage of it starting on here soon!
  11. arhh, just as I thought, will give it ago anyway.. :D
  12. Does anyone know, its just I'm breaking a mk3 golf at the moment and it has a electric glass tilt and slide sunroof which would be a cool upgrade for the corrado project imo.... Would let a bit of light inside the car...
  13. I feel embarssed to admit that it is still not on the road yet... hopefully will get it started this weekend and ready for its first drive... i'm looking forward to it!!! lots of wiring etc to do first though...
  14. I think 150bhp 2.0 Tdi would be neat, 40-50mpg and good performance as well, can't beat them really.
  15. thats good news! car looks awesome btw...
  16. Need to know if anyone has done it before.... Anyone know the rough cost aswell, cause my mate wants to upgrade..
  17. I haven't got it re-trimmed yet mate, thats standard TVR trim. It's a nice cream/sand color but it has red stitching which dosen't match my blue car! Still deciding what to do about re-trimming! Just another expense at the moment..... need to get the car on the road first..
  18. Right time for an update I think, I've not had much time to work on the car much recently because of work and therefore the interior hasn't changed much... however.. I have a fellow corrado owner coming over next weekend to help me get it started, bleed the brakes + clutch and hopefully by then it will be ready for a quick trial I think...! Whilst putting it back on the ground I did find a couple of guests taking residense both on the outside of my exhaust and within...! All I can say is I hope they can fly as come next weekend they won't have much choice.... :D :D :D
  19. i got a custom one made, its got a 3" custom downpipe which goes over the propshaft and down the otherside turning into 2 1/2" for the rest of the system. x2 small boxes, the rear being a jap box and they quoted me £375, but ended uyp charging me close to £550 because of the downpipe being very hard to do....
  20. not got mine either... joined in March and never recieved a copy of the Sprinter as of yet... :(
