I think the rules changed on Ebay so sellers cannot leave retaliatory feedback so you should be ok!

Making Corrado 4 wheel drive with running gear from an Audi TT and Golf Rallye. Will be running a fully forged 1.8 turbo 20 valve lump and hoping to get 400-450 bhp :)

I havn't got a build thread anywhere yet but i am only in the early stages.
I am collecting parts before i really get stuck in as the last thing i want is to have to stop and wait mid project while i save/find something. I will start a thread on here if that's ok? nearer the time tho'.
Parts already aquired are:-

Corrado (usefull this bit :wink: ).
low mileage BAM audi TT engine (forged pistons as standard).
Pauter forged rods.
ATP cast T3 manifold.
Tial 38mm wastegate.
Garrett GT2871R turbo (rated by garrett to 460bhp).
630cc comp injectors.
Emerald M3D standalone ECU.
Race Technology Dash2 digi display.
6 speed TT box and rear Haldex diff'.
TT propshaft (has to be cut and welded/balanced to half a rallye prop'.
Rallye rear beam (fits direct to floor pan as same as mk2 golf, this has to be modded to accept Haldex diff).
custom made half shafts (£1200 the set :o ).
Spax RSX coilovers.
17" alloys (team dynamics pro-race 2 5 spokes in black)
328mm porsche ally 4 pot brakes for front with custom designed caliper spacers (by me).
Roll cage, full weld in).
Lairy bucket recliner seats and subframes.
various other bits i forget.....

Major 'bigish' bits still needed:-

Custom made full stainless de-catted exhaust, 3" bore throughout and seperate external wastegate pipe.
LARGE intercooler.
Ally radiator (may yet go in the back of the car to reduce under bonnet temps.
and time/money to get on with it :wink: .
