Full 288 mm brake kit and hub refurb and track rod kit.

Best upgrade you can make to a corrado transforms the interior and very nice seating position.

Thanks mate I’m going to use Brembo and same brand for disc.

Got there in the end . 288mm

Yes vey nice but £500 for the set and I think knuckles are a bit like callipers wire brush and paint and that’s good enough for me .,

I have sourced another one for £20.00 and the bearing- 99 percent sure it would be fine but that 1 percent would nag me to hell. Yu can still buy these new by the way from classics for 266 euro - of course thats is double the cost of a Genuine 16v mk2 one otherwise I would of just purchased new.

Totally agree bit of a pain need to source a passenger side - better safe then sorry .

Its about 1 to 2 mm deep - recon Im going to source a second hand one . I imagine the new bearing will be destroyed taking it out

Hi I have noticed the disc cut in my refurbished hub would of happened when an old bolt was cut out- its not very deep but should I source another one as it could be dangerous ? ? Its the left side passenger for a VR . Think it where the ball joint houses from the wishbone. Thanks

You could get some sick black leather recaro LS from the USA accessory brochure. Can be viewed on this link. http://www.xjamiex.com/mk2resource/brochures/1988/sportaccessories/sportaccessories.html

I had them in my H540 UGK valver back in 94 - try and get some now impossible - at the the time I didnt even realise they were anything special - would love a set now very handy the headrests to throw a dog loop hangers over them that houses the blanket . I think people use to buy the front headrests and mod them in to the rear bench but they were different then stock rears- it was a £150 option and you could also get 60 / 40 spilt rear bench - the holy grail is recaro with 60 / 40 splits and rear headrests.

Gross !

They are very sort after now the factory tinted 16 v lights - look good on a white car.

Have you any Mk2 parts knocking about Dox I like them 16 v lights ha. There is a project 16 v mk2 down south looks very complete- good for someone for 3 k - is a 3dr - black and rainbow big bumper. Very honest car and complete. 176k on clock with original block.

From what I can see the early corrado came colour matched on script badge - you can only buy repo silver badges that are I cant think of the name has the matt glazed effect- so best thing to do is colour match the black matt oe badges that you can still buy from VW. Im not that patient so im like. 3m alcohol body panel clean product. 1 hour for primer to dry x 2 light coats Top coat x 3 10 minutes each coat apart Laquer 10 minutes later x 3 coats 10 minutes apart. All above light coats and only sprayed in sunny weather 20 degrees plus (not over 25 ) for good cure. Each coat touch dry before next application. I could wet sand the lacquer on the script but its a good enough finish as it is for me .

Bit of colour coding today - rich in flake is Black Magic . Halfords Vw black Pearl matched well and undercoat plastic primer finished of with lacquer. Plenty of practice im getting ok with a rattle can .

Was my home town- was a lot of car for the money that. Good to see the car in good condition and money spent in the correct places.

Wow nice car this is my home town .

Is this the car. https://openairimports.com/inventory/

Says export marker ye- would this suggest it has been shipped to the usa- that importer off facebook that purchased cody corrado x 2 cars - cant think of the importers name.

I imagine most of these do not work then if on all the time.

There was a Vortex one mate I think with a blue plate- looked very well engineered .

Was too busy looking at Kamei kits and superchargers 😅 I should have took a few admittedly.

Thanks for making the long distance- really does give an opportunity to give the car a good drive.
