wow, i always wondered how they made the James bond car look invisible :lol:

Could do with a little help could i put the ABF head on a the KR block as there is one not far from me i could get a hold that has highlift cams and has been ported and polished? Or would it just be worth my while sourcing an ABF block as well? :D Thanks, Calum

If you know how to weld you can pick low cost MIG, might do for what you want. I would volunteer to do the welding but yeah welding on car is the worst. If not prob best take to a specialist. See how your filler goes, Stick in there :D

okay see what i can do when i am feeling a bit better, no food for 3 days :( Thanks for the help Calum

Got to admit your silver raddo looks spot on :D

Hey i have a 16v 1.8 1989 corrado and have had it since March, runs perfectly fine. It starts cold without a problem i mean as soon as the key turns the old car fires up fine no problem everytime. But the problem is starting the car when it is warm. The car cranks over fine but takes a long time to fire up, i reckon it is something to do with fuel as it can stutter a bit before running properly as if there is not enough fuel.Fuel pump is fine you can here it buzzing away. any suggestions would be great might save me a stater motor in the near future. thanks Calum

Pics look awesome :D unlucky about the floor it take it its pretty bad then?

saw blue VR6 in edinburgh at the weekend, looked liked it was decked and on bbs alloys 8) looked awesome

halfords... just dont use there colour match had a thew experiences as in i got a can of blue and it could not have been more purple :?

for the radiator leave a hose running water through it fro a n hour or two, in the oppisite direction of the of which it would run through when the car is running, should clean it out :D

Are you not suppost to take the head bolts of in a specific order?

or a the Volkswagon Corrado Official repair manual basically the corrado bible, but yeah costs an arm and a leg....

wrong order hehe thats what you do to u your mates car just to wind him up , and yeah it would have ran like a bag of sh*t

Make sure you check the gap on the plugs, you still have to gap check new plugs. Hope that helps

Hey , yeah i have done a bit off looking about and some folk have tried to do it here is the link in case people are interested http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=3078876 and yeah i will try and get a VSS sensor from a corrado, see what i can do. :D looks like it can be done :D

Hey , i recently got my self a sweet corrado! 1989 so the speedo is cable driven was hoping to switch the clocks to the later model fully electric. The fuel gauge at the moment does not work or does the MFA and plus the electric clocks have came with the car, added bonus. The prevous owner told me i should swap them over. Any help with the wiring of the electrical later model clocks would be much appreciated. I have a electric speedo sensor and from a 1997 polo i have and tried to wire it in instead of he cable driven one, but to no luck . Plus the rev counter goes a bit crazy in the later model clocks when plugged in. Other wise everything else works, including the fuel gauge and MFA. Any help would be much appreciated oh yeah its a 1.8 16v even if there are other links i have missed a bunt in the right direction would be a great :brickwall: Been at it for a while and not getting any where! Many thanks CMuir :notworthy:
