I realise this was a good while ago, but did you use rivnuts or similar for the tray securing bolts?

Thanks for the reply. I have already tested the vss wires - I’m getting a 12v ignition feed and earth on the outer two pins (black/brown).. what I’m missing is a 5v signal from the VSS wire. I have read on a couple of pages that the 5v reference should be coming from the instrument cluster, not the sensor itself. I’m trying to find out if this is definitely the case. If it is the case, I’m assuming my cluster is faulty. However, as I said, when an external 5v feed is applied to the VSS wire, the speedo then works- we turned the spare old VSS with a drill to replicate driving.

Hi, I am trying to ascertain why the speedo isn’t working on my ‘93 Vr6. Should the instrument cluster be supplying a 5v feed to the vss line? I’m not getting any 5v feed on the vss (blue/white) wire. On the outer two pins on the vss plug I have ignition 12v and earth, which is correct, so the problem lies with the 5v feed. I managed to get the speedo to work by applying an external 5v to the vss wire, but I’d rather replace the cluster if it’s that which is the issue.

Cheers Sean, Yeah I already have the rears. I had the fronts too, but I let them go with my calipers when I fitted the Brembos. Seriously considering going back to 15s though soon as it always drove better, but will need some decent discs and pads on the 288s.

I’m after a pair of braided front hoses for 288mm brakes with the banjo type union.

Hi, I’m looking for a late front bumper, must be in good condition. Colour unimportant as I will get it painted eventually. No hurry for it at the moment, I’m just trying to collect parts I’ll need before a respray.

Oh cool... are you displaying? Pre-booked? I’m going to display mine, but I’m paying on the gate. Was hoping to hook up with a few other Corrados :) -
Anyone going there tomorrow?

I would rather find a decent known good engine after being let down by my fully rebuilt engine. Plus it’ll be cheaper. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The intermediate shaft snapped on the one in my car and starved it of oil.. I had a spare 2.8 AAA engine from my friends car which was a nice engine, but unfortunately he rolled the car and when I stripped the engine down I found that too had suffered from oil starvation when it was rolled and killed the big ends and scored the crank. So basically I have two engines which have both been ruined due to oil starvation! I just need a decent bottom end really, I have a good recon head from my engine. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
