  4. its been off the road for a few years. i believe we spoke briefly at an alive and dubbin show quite a few years ago. my car was in the show and shine so you would of seen it.
  5. ill be coming not far for me. im hoping to have mine all road legal again by then
  6. looks a neat idea may have been interested 6 months ago i went with a wagner replica golf g60 setup. looks like it would need a bit of tweeking to fit a corrado. the intercooler outlet could possibly foul on the larger corrado headlights and would have to hack off the towing eye by the looks of it. would be nice to build in a bracket for front mount oil cooler if i was having one made
  7. sure ive seen some on vw heritage
  8. right hand side above bonnet pull, bit higher than fuse board

  10. well i havnt posted for a while, ive been beavering away with all the loose ends really. . uprated headlight loom installed.... washer bottle relocation finished off... slampanel has been sandblasted and respayed now drying in my makeshift paint booth in my shed, heaters on full.... [ATTACH=CONFIG]85230[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]85231[/ATTACH] so hopefully this weekend i can finally fit slampanel, wings ,lights , wheels etc and its ready for test drive and MOT then its off for wheel allignment.... then off to exhaust place to shorten exhaust system due to the gwerks manifold being a bit longer than the standard manifold its pushed the whole system about 40mm backwards LOL i cant believe the end is finally in sight and i get get to drive it again soon....
  11. should certanly stop well with those brakes! good work fella:thumbleft:
  12. the flywheel will only go on in one position so no need to mark anything you cant it wrong
  13. id be inclined to take it to a car alarm specialist anyone familiar with car alarms would manage this no problems and probarly quicker/cheaper than a garage that is asking for wiring diagrams

    Exhaust

    i have removed the rear hanger bracket and used a rubber mount to cure a knock i had similar to this [ATTACH=CONFIG]84800[/ATTACH] it stops it moving and hitting the rear axle as theres not a lot of room between floor and axle if lowered. i also fitted heavy duty rubbers to the other hangers
  18. finally got it running :grin: : https://www.facebook.com/stuart.scales/videos/10154933461409587/ all went well on first start up untill the oil light started flashing after 10 mins.....i feared a major problem... Turns out I had wrong low oil pressure switch supplied :doh: and had the high and low in the wrong place swapped over and all good now....im not religious but i did thank god LOL
