Better to use a B4 one, frame and fit is the same but the wiring is different its not difficult to change though....Or take the old one out and tale it to the corrado one to see...

There are 3 types of steering rack for the B3 and they are all interchangeable as long as you also use the matching steering column to rack UJ.

If you are not going to do it yourself its going to cost you 10 times more than it would cost to buy one.....and then it would be a modified car and the insurance would be more too. It makes no sense at all. Buy a VR6 and sell yours. Is that a hint seen as your selling yours lol No hint as mine is ...

Remove the interior light to gain access to the motor, you will see a slotted screw that you can turn with a big flathead screwdriver turn that to close.It is at one end halfway between two mounting screws.

Popped into see Glynn this morning and although we did find that he had the parts in the wrong order ie. spring top, bearing, nut, strut mount, strut top and nut. instead of spring top, nut, bearing, strut mount, strut top and nut. Even having done that it still didnt solve the movement problem. I h...

can you do a how to and parts list??

That is definately not right I cannot see how any mot tester in his right mind could pass it in that state.... At a guess a part has been left out when the coilovers have been fitted. Early cars had in this order spring, washer, spring seat, strut bearing, top nut. While later cars had again in orde...

Hmmm looks like you have found something my B3 doesnt have... although my votex lights have the holes and clips for them .... . Where are you planning to put the switch? Not sure where it would go on mine as all the switch holes have switches in them...

Shavey, Maclee is right when i changed mine years ago they did feel loose but covered thousands of miles with no problems so it must be ok. On mine i could turn the washer by hand !! If you have a snotty mot tester you might need to nip them up but normally if there is no noise they pass. You will a...

Due to personal circumstances mine just might be for sale....

Most B3's can carry huge mileages without really showing it i have owned 2 with over 200,000 on them and the only way you knew was by the speedo. Its only really a problem if they are asking a premium for the low mileage in which case unless they have the paperwork to back it up i wouldnt pay more t...

Hmmmmmm

My 1993 B3 VR6 auto



Probably the only B3 auto left in england and nicely speced with factory cruise, heated leather and thermotronic.
Soon to be fitted with Votex lights, 4 spoke wheels and matching steering wheel.

Physically no as most B3s came with 14s but personally i would say 14s only work if they are wide and the car is very low. This is a purely personal opinion you understand.

vw stealers??

Dont forget to video the first firing....... It needs to be seen...

Got a full set of red panels in the shed, may have an odd scratch from storage need a good polish but no dents, based near Cambridge pm for details n phone number.

as you drop it you can slide it forward then out it comes trust me its not hard to do.

Been a few years since i did mine but iirc i pulled the front seats out and took it out the rear door.... it was suggested you could just wind the seats down but its so easy to remove the front seats i did it that way as it also gives you more room to undo everything. It is easier to have a mate to ...

I was always told dont build something you can buy there are still B3 Vr6's out there.

X2E is a northern ireland code.... this site might help,

its not perfect though there are usually some anomalies.

It seems they use the same server as SOCA the organised crime agency who recently shut down a large number of sites selling stolen credit card numbers. there is a great quote on the BBC website by a "security expert" this is it "The sensible person doesn't walk around in a beekeeper's...

Sod all that faffing around with tape ..... when you take the badge off you normally get some tape left on the car and some left on the badge. Just put super glue on both bits and stick it back on...

Move somewhere sunnier and therefore cheaper..... I am told CB postcodes are amonst the cheapest and sunniest
