  1. Hi so we got my nugget yellow g60 fired up today and realised we are missing the cooling fan. I have the rad so am looking for the fan, framework and bolts that attach it to the rad and the little top cover piece.
  2. Hi, where abouts are you? I have a vr6 lump in the workshop with prob all the parts you want, can have it for beer tokens. I got it from a rado g60 that someone was trying to convert to a vr6. I'm into the g60 so a vr6 engine is of no use to me. In Dorset. Matt
  3. That would all make sense thanks. Looking for a g60 specific knock sensor then.
  4. Hi Looking for a g60 knock sensor, I've got a 1991 corrado. I'm guessing that a vr6 sendor prob wont do the job, it does look similar, i've got a vr6 lump sat in the workshop. thanks
  5. Hi I have one at my farm in Dorset. Un known history really. I brought a corrado from a bloke locally who had it from new but no one told him to re build the charger, charger went bang and he had a pipedream of putting a VR6 engine in it instead so I brought the car with the VR6 engine litterally just resting in the engine bay, if its o interest buy me some beer tokens and its yours. I can stick it on a pallet if that helps
  6. I have a 1991 rado for parts that these bits may be on and ok, is that classed as late?
  7. Buy me some beer and its yours, did you want it posted or collected. Will take a photo of it tomorrow if get time and send it to your phone

  8. Hi I have one that exploded through the casing for a previous owner who didnt ever get it serviced
  9. Big thanks to VEEDUBBED who sent me a throttle sensor from Italy! Very impressed with the way the part looked like it had been cleaned and polished. Much appreciated, I should have my Nugget Yellow G60 fired up very soon. Thanks Matt
  10. Will take a look on in my spare parts box tomorrow. There may be one.
  11. Hi I think I did PM you perhaps I didnt
  12. Hi did you find what you were looking for
  13. No worries I know what its like i've got corrado, mk1 golf and mk3 hilux bits all over the farm hope you find one
  14. Hi I'm looking for Corrado G60 Throttle Switch. Basically Its the electical bit on the back of the throttle body, has 3 parts joined by wires one of them being where the electric plugs into. I broke it taking the engine out. thanks Matt
  15. VR6 Engine, Gearbox, ECU, Loom. Hi got as the title suggests. Basically 3mths ago I brought a nugget yellow g60 from a guy 2miles down the road for 400quid. The guy has owned the car for about 15years. The car had been dry stored for 4years due to the charger blowing up, no one told him he needed to rebuild the charger! Instead of changing the charger he had a pipe dream of converting it to a VR6. He managed to take the g60 lump out and literally just put the VR6 in place and gave up. I brought the car for spares but its in such nice condition I couldn't bring myself to take it appart so I'm going to get it running again. I prefer the g60 engine so want to keep it as a g60 as all the badges are g60. I have a mk1 g60 and a corrado g60 so you can tell I love the engine. What I know about the engine is limited, the guy I brought it off had no reason to lie and you can kinda tell a bulls**tter a mile off. He said he got the engine out of a written off mk3 vr6 from a local breakers, he saw it running. I've just taken it engine out and cranked it by hand and there is loads of compression. I think theres a lot of these engines about so any offers are welcome. I'm gonna split the gearbox and hopefully use the flywheel, bolts and clutch on the g60 engine? VR6 Engine - 50 Gearbox - 50 ECU - 25 Loom - 25 I'm happy to put it on a pallet if courier is sorted out, i'm on the farm everyday and have a telehandler to load onto lorry etc..

    G60 Engine

    Hi i'm on the look out for a corrado G60 Block, Head, Cam and Alternator. Anything considered preferably as a complete unit ready to go. thanks matt.p
  22. Hi, anyone got one of these kicking around for sale? matt.p
  23. Hi, going to try and fire my mk1 g60 after another year stood in the workshop. Got it cranking, got the spark, just need to sus out the fuel rail. Basically how it works, parts of it etc... Firstly which is the inlet and return. Obviously got 2 options as there are 2 pipe attachment points on the cambelt side of the rail, one facing up towards the bonnet on the topside and one underneith facing the road. The one facing the road goes into some kind of vacuum diaphram (what is this and what does it do?) that has a vac pipe going into the inlet manifold. So inlet and return advice please. The other side of the rail seems pretty self expainatory, looks like the outlet to feed the 5th injector, might be wrong though. any help appreciated thanks matt.p
  24. Thanks for the replies, album56 seems to be closest to the problem and that would make sense. I can't I do have a lot of paperwork with her but haven't looked through for clutch replacements, it's got 145K on the clock surely this wouldn't have been achieved on the original clutch? I'm guessing that all modern clutched availiable for this car is of the right type thanks matt.p
