Great looking bay mate, you went about this totally differently to me......by doing it properly,lol taking your time with really clean Corrado, not like my ratty daily! I would recommend putting .216 injector nozzles in if you were thinking about future tuning and have no fear about running it on 50/50 clean veg oil and diesel, also mine passed an MOT emmissions test with a blanked off EGR valve and straight through exhaust with only a backbox on and .216 injector nozzles, hope any of that helps,

Mine was a '95 2.0 16v before i put an '98 AGU 1.9tdi in out of a seat cordoba, I used the rear engine mount off the 2.0l engine bolted to the tdi block and it sat right in no prolem, i would also recomend the earlier engines as what u lack in power and refinement you make up for in ease of installation and being able to run veg oil, good luck anyways

Yeah, I'd just replaced my rado door as it had had some damage from being broken into before i bought it, and re-stocked on some Buck shot rounds the same weekend so.........it was asking for it really,lol i shot it from about 10m away and the shot on the right is what u'd normally use to shoot a pheasant with, which it took suprisingly well.

If like me you've ever woke up and wondered how well a Corrado door would hold up against a shotgun round, here's a pic: Left: 36g - number 2 size shot Centre: SSG/"Buckshot" Right: 32g - number 6 size shot So if you're thinking about driving through the "Hood" or taking a trip to the "Ghetto", maybe best to take the Mrs' car?
-
Yeah it's an AGU engine, not sure about the figures yet but i'll be putting a variable resistor on the fuel pump for more power and lots more black smoke! Till i get round to getting it chipped/re-mapped, straight through exhaust, bigger intercooler etc etc, now it's on the road it's just gonna be a bit of a rolling project, thanks for the comments guys, Backbone :hitler:

Loving this, chipfat definatly ftw,lol
-
Very cool. You should never leave home without one lol
-
Not a clue, I think there might be a couple of others. It's a semi automatic shotgun 12g and the one on the bonnet is a Ruger 10-22 semi auto .22 rimfire rifle.

Bought my corrado about a month ago as a little project. It was a 2L 16V and looking pretty sorry for itself. At the same time I also bought a perfectly good mint condition Seat Cordoba Vario 'SXE'(!) TDI. After 4 weekends fiddling with them and a few trips to the scrapyard, here's how they look.... http://i995.photobucket.com/albums/af74 ... 163344.jpg http://i995.photobucket.com/albums/af74 ... 163338.jpg http://i995.photobucket.com/albums/af74 ... 163343.jpg http://i995.photobucket.com/albums/af74 ... 163342.jpg http://i995.photobucket.com/albums/af74 ... 163340.jpg http://i995.photobucket.com/albums/af74 ... 163348.jpg http://i995.photobucket.com/albums/af74 ... 163337.jpg No love for Seats lol! .216 Injector nozzles De-cat VR6 clutch More engine mods to come, havn't started on the outside yet...lowering, wheel refurb and possible colour change to follow. Cheap as chips to run ;-) Any other Corrado TDIs on here? This is my scrapheap challenge 20V Caddy (231.8 bhp 256ft-lb on base map)... http://i995.photobucket.com/albums/af74 ...
