Oh legend! thanks mate :)

Hi there I'm looking to upgrade my 256mm setup to the 280mm G60 setup. Apparently all I need are the brake Carriers and slider pins? If anyone has a pair and selling them, please let me know! :) Cheers Dave
-
Really not much has happened since i've last updated this. I've removed the abs pump and some more wiring from the bay and that's about it.....been working full time so I can start putting some more money into this :) thinking of stripping it down and going for a full respray now! Will hopefully be able to upload some updates this week! Cheers Dave

Splitters on the corrado's sit horrendously low! get a smaller splitter and go lower ;)
-
Will get a definite price for you dude.
-
Looks good James! ;) also raise your exhaust! aha
-
Will have to find out dude, due to new postage costs i'm guessing around £10? maybe cheaper though
-
I also have one

Not too much progress has been done lately, mainly been researching and spending money! Started to clean up the bay a little bit, need to invest in a steam cleaner mind. Quite impressed so far though, minimal rust! After a quick clean and wax removal Like mentioned, need a steam cleaner! Also i've decided i'm going to run AGU management and setup (apart from the turbo) on the AUQ engine I have. Transfered the wiring loom across. Unfortunately it was missing important things such as the ignition amp, maf sensor and the air pressure sensor! However managed to find one breaking and picked up all these parts, coilpacks and lamda for cheap :) Almost new k03s from essex turbos I've also had the alarm removed as it didn't work. This means when it comes to wiring in the new loom I shouldn't have any unexpected issues with starting etc! Need to buy an intercooler, ECU, clutch and boost piping still....and after reading some threads I'm thinking of fully respraying the car whilst it's mostly stripped...will see! Oh also I managed to win some g60 clocks on ebay for £2.20! 8)

Greats new mate! :d bet you're over the moon! good luck with the lacquer peel on the bonnet btw! Contemplating fully respraying mine :scratch:

Metering head, isv, engine, throttle body and inlet manifold are all sold. Coilpack is still available!

Metering head, airbox and isv sold. Engine and throttle body are provisionaly sold. Rest still here.

Small update: removed the dash the other day Now need to start to remove the engine wiring harness!

Hi mate, yes that's it including the hose up-to the throttle body and pipe with isv.. Metering head comes with full airbox. Would do both for £65 posted?

If you find an engine courier, it's already on a pallet ;)

Ohhhh, you mean the potentiometer? On the bottom of the throttle body? ---------- Post added 9th June 2013 at 12:25 AM ---------- Previous post was 8th June 2013 at 11:45 PM ----------

Ah right fair enough! Might do what Marni said and just move it down under the cross member then :) A toyosports one off of ebay when I get around to purchasing it! Cheers for your help guys!

Hi there I'm currently at the beginning stage of starting a 20vt conversion on my corrado. I'm just wondering, what is the point in the metal power steering pipe that bolts through the front cross member? It looks as though it's a cooling pipe, however I don't see why the power steering fluid needs to be cooled? Was thinking of removing it and just running a straight pipe to the power steering pump. Then I could bolt the intercooler in front of the radiator. Would doing this cause any problems? Does the pipe need to be there? Cheers Dave

Been working so haven't done too much. Took the flywheel off of the engine and removed the driveshafts the other day. Also put some ****ty temporary wheels on it for now. Also took off the plastic under the windscreen. Was a right ballache as it was siliconed down....also found some rust. There's not too much of it however will scrape it back and see if I can treat it. Also removed the snapped bonnet release cable, scuttle panel, wipers, ecu and started removing the tape around the engine wiring harness and tracing back the wires I need and don't need. Will remove the dash too at somepoint this week! You can see the spots of silicone in the picture above, just below the windscreen. We also put 12v to the starter motor of the 20vt i'm using to go in the corrado and turned the engine over. All seems fine there so looking forward to removing it!

Brilliant thanks for the responce guys! Rado20vt, that's what I'm hoping to do! I've got a full wiring loom available, seen some uncoded and stage 2 mapped ecu's from the mk4golfstore on ebay for £200 which look quite good! Just need a throttle body. And my hubs are 4 stud and wouldn't mind keeping them 4 stud. Will see how it goes! Cheers :)
-
Ah that's good to hear then! Cheers man

Im going to be starting a 20vt conversion soon on my 94' 2.0l 16v. My mate (in the same unit as me) has an auq engine on 96k with a brand new k03s which he's selling me,however thinking of using an agu thottle body, ecu and wiring loom. Will I have any problems with the running of this? Also do I need to upgrade my brake master cylinder / fuel pump? Oh and is there any way you can get the MFA to still work? Many Thanks Dave
