About time you should be able to post a picture, been months now to be fair.

Hi Sean. Looking over the Stealth receipt this morning it shows £230.00 for Steering rack and £97.00 for steering pump. I only changed mine as I had to but I suppose anything over 20 years old it will give you peace of mind refurbing if you have the rack off the car.

I was chatting to someone tonight who has owned two VSR manifolds at the same time and also has a VW Motorsport bell housing 6 speed gearbox Gemini. He got one of the VSR from a mk3 golf VR^ a few years back, it was a car flipper that didn't know what he got, he then sold the golf and got his money back and a free VSR = good business hey . He sold one of the VSR to a chap in the States last year. The other one he did not want to sell but mentioned they are worth 3k. (well to him but I've seem them sell cheaper) Cant give the guys name I'm afraid as he has no plans on selling the last one he owns and was very adamant about that.

Seen this before aswell Sean. http://vi.raptor.ebaydesc.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemDescV4&item=303117853545&category=33589&pm=1&ds=0&t=1578162534548

You can see the refurbished rack on the first page , picture of the underbody comes back painted (has the blue sticker on it of firm if you zoom in )

Hi Sean, Ill find out on Monday from Vince for you mate, I think they have them In stock all ready and you send yours in and get some money back. Bit of a funny story with mine to be honest. my power steering pipe the one that goes through the front panel all got powder coated, any way to cut a long story short some sand was was left in the pipe from blasting and when the power sytem was fitted to the car again the sand got through the system and f..... up the pump and rack. Whole system had to be stripped and flush and had to get a new pump and rack. Moral of the story thouroughly check any powder coated parts that come in contact with internal fluids !!!

Hi , Thanks for the praise. I've still got work to complete to be honest. I'm going to bore the engine out to 3 litres next year and do a complete engine rebuild. If your in the British Colombia area I'm pretty sure there is a Corrado specialist in Oregon that I have seen on on this guys youtube channel. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClJifD34bmyu-K3y1hF0_uA The steering rack got refurbished by a UK company, power steering pump you can get off ebay I imagine but my mechanic sourced that so not sure. The stainless steel tank straps are from ebay a UK seller that handbuilds them and are for 70 liters tank (check yours is that size as there is variation throughout the Corrado range) https://www.https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClJifD34bmyu-K3y1hF0_uAebay.co.uk/itm/Vr6-GOLF-CORRADO-MIRROR-STAINLESS-STEEL-GOLF-TANK-STRAPS-70-litre/233386933291?hash=item3656f1fc2b:g:srIAAOxy9tpSA0~7 I got my front decals and rear from this chap off facebook who handcrafts them . Renewart. https://www.facebook.com/renewartlleida/?eid=ARCXDUlCFz-YodxtmsfmuckDXYtGyf-k1-RolEvzGPOxRRFwABkjcilhlle1lbHNFn9R2wYeIw52Wo-Q&timeline_context_item_type=intro_card_work&timeline_context_item_source=1470284016&fref=tag Alternativ;ey this seller has started to manufacture them alongside some other obsolete Corrado parts. https://gryp-3d.com/pieces-auto-collection-2-2-2/volkswagen/ Hope this helps !

At That price it’s worth buying the whole stock and selling them on . Vw classics uk sell them I think .

That’s a brilliant price if it’s the right part . You can send any internet purchase back within 30 days a get a full refund . That bird company sell loads of stuff looks like they may purchase bankrupt stock ?

This puts a smile on my face ! :thumbleft: Spec https://www.vau-max.de/magazin/tuning/ready-to-race-dieser-corrado-zeigte-dem-neuen-audi-rs6-die-ruecklichter-vau-max-de-zeigt-den-movi-star.3324

Good stuff chap.

Good to hear . Where did you source your Schick Manifold from ?

Is it to stop the tow hook getting hot ?

Could it be that the fitter in the Karmann factory didnt know his left and rights, it is a true mystery. ha

Ha ha. Happy New Year Fen! The only thing I can think of is, if in other countries the exhaust is the other side and they didn't bother to swop over the shield on RHD cars, god knows !

Ok sound mate I will have a look out for some. It is a complete mystery ha !

This sounds great work bet you cant wait to see and feel the final results. Sorry for this dumb question but what is the rear bumper heat shield actually for as its the opposite side of the exhaust. I'm doing a bumper refurb next year so have a rear bumper heat shield and rivets . Annoyingly the rear bumper bracket bolts seem to be obsolete.

Good stuff mate sounds promising. It is a really rare part because it was only ever made for a 16V KR Corrado. The Mk2 golf 16V is hard to get as well but more common, I keep a couple as spare just incase.

I know matthew palmer has one but one of the brackets is broken that holds either the accumulator or fuel filter. drop him a message but you would have to drill a hole and use a cable tie for the bad bracket. You can always type in corrado breaking on facebook and see what comes up. Always pay via paypal for protection. https://www.facebook.com/groups/768808459938759/

Matt from Mk2 spares has a Corrado swirl pot but one of the brackets is cracked £50.00 think he said with the pumps etc. Think Brendon Moss was breaking one from Dubstock as well.

All you need to do is sign up to facebook and search for them names on the list I gave you. Nothing to do with the Corrado Forum.

Happy new year. You need to press a button to join the group first.

Check this thread out as well chap. https://www.clubgti.com/forums/index.php?threads/swirl-pot-replacement.286190/ https://www.merlinmotorsport.co.uk/p/obp-fuel-swirl-pot-1-litre-100mm-diameter-x-135mm-tall-obpa025

Unfortunately chap it does help opening a FB account to source classic parts, mind you can just leave the profile blank or make up a name, no need to have your private details on facebook for the world to see. Club gti has alot of stuff on there something about using a MK3 filter and Mk1 pump.
