  1. Corrado vr6 turbo for sale, I’ve had this car nearly over 10 years now it’s been a good car but in recent years it’s just been sitting on my driveway so the time has come to sell it.

    The car is SORN and has been off the road about 5-6 years but I have been starting it on/off every month or so in that time. It runs, all the old fuel has been drained and it’s got a new fuel filter, as well as a brand new crank sensor.

    The bigger problem with this car is the body work might look ok in the pictures, but it’s an old car it has nicks, dents, scratches really could do with a session with ChipsAway. The car is using the standard ECU run’s like any other vr6, and comes with red tops separate if you want to put it in boost.

     

    Here’s a vid when it was running in boost https://vimeo.com/1672165

     

    I am the third owner it comes with Part Service History, Documents and all receipts are available.

    Bad Points

     

    Car is SORN Will need to be towed/picked up  

    Car is not mapped, but will come with 360cc Saab red tops

    Front/Rear Bumpers/Bonnet needs re-spraying also passenger door

    Dent in Bonnet & Front Panel also general stone chips

    Little Paint bubble passenger front side wing, slight rust on driver’s door

    Wheels need respraying not a problem if you are changing them

    Could do will an oil/filter change 

    Sunroof 1 of the aluminium clips is broke (common problem), motor is fine

    Driver’s door pin has come loose

    Front fog lights not working possible fuse/relay or blubs

    Needs a new Battery it is Kaput

    Throttle body plug needs re-wiring has broken

    Clutch fluid slow leak, possible master cylinder/salve or could just need a bleed

    Driver’s side repeater blub needs replacing

    Needs front and rear wiper blades replacing

     

    So the car runs, but doesn’t start on the 1st try when I connect the battery, turn the key a second time with a little throttle it fires up, possible compression, throttle body or battery problem, I’m not sure.

     

    I’ve tried to be honest with everything that I am aware off, the leather interior is in good condition along with the mechanicals this car during the years has been great to own, just the body work needs addressing and the turbo mapping.

     

     

    Reason for selling

     

    Time for a change I’ve had the car for 12 years along time and I don’t really use it anymore also I’ve been out of work for a while now and can’t afford to run it.

  2. How much would a custom built exhaust cost do you think?

    and where would do one?

    Dont you need a 'cat' for the mot?

    I had a custom 2.5'' built system at JKM in portsmouth £550. No Mot where i am :)

    Really nice exhaust system, probably sounds nice too...

  3. [blockquote]Before my golf i had a vauxhall corsa c20let that done just shy of 290bhp with a boost leak and a missfire it was

    crazy quick !

    My friend has a escort cosworth doing about 330-350 bhp and the corsa would pull away from him if he was in third gear and i was in fifth at 60mph thats how i wanted my golf ![/blockquote]

    Hi mate,

    One thing that impresses me about the LET, is the F28 Gearbox. i understand you had the engine in a corsa, but how does it compare overall now with your vr6t?

    my friend has 1 in his Astra and im just curious how much difference there is...
