Big Sky Euro

Okay so my father was closing up his dealership and we had this VR6 Corrado we got for $1100 from the auction in Spokane. He needed to get rid of it. So I bought it for what he had put into it which was about $1800.
It was a repossession from a credit agency.
The radiator was leaking BAD. (Turns out it was a combo of a cracked radiator and my thermostat housing and crack pipe leaking which I mention later in this thread.)
Speedometer doesn't work.
Adjustable spoiler is inoperable.
Heater core is bypassed.
All kinds of unplugged plugs and a few frayed wires.
So we replaced the radiator with a new Modine radiator from ECS Tuning. When I was gone one day my dad thought he'd recycle the old radiator before I had the new one in.....
I get in the shop and start searching for some parts I hadn't installed yet. Turns out my dad recycled the AUX fan switch and the top flange the goes to the radiator/top coolant hose. Ordered them and waiting for them to get in right now. As soon as I get it together I am going to get some pictures taken and post them up for you guys.

On the good side:
Its a 5-spd
New silver paint
Its lowered
Aftermarket wheels
Neuspeed P-Flow Intake
Spectre air intake filter
Aftermarket exhaust
Aftermarket speakers and stereo

The dream is to do a R36 Turbo Conversion complete with 4motion. But that's just a dream.


Here are the pictures!!!

Dream big!!

Yeah very cool, but we need to see some pictures!

Parts came in. I'll probably be installing the parts tomorrow and will snap some pics and throw them up!

Alright so still leaks like a sieve. Wes came over and helped determine that the "crack pipe" was leaking. Going to be ordering a metal coolant flange kit from ECS sometime soon!

ooh!! very nice Do want to see in person

Well hopefully I'll scrape some cash together to get a replacement kit before you roll through Missoula on the 29th or 30th.

Also does anyone have any recommendations for some aluminum/billet aluminum coolant flanges and thermostat housings on the 12v VR6. The crack pipe is easy to find in SS and billet aluminum. I was hoping to get the same material for the other associated bits and pieces.

Thats going to be tough to find...

So it seems. I haven't found anything yet. I'll probably end up with the ECS kit with aluminum pipe and plastic pieces.

I don't know that I have ever seen an aluminum flange. I read once that a dude made his own but couldn't ever find the thread again. If you find one let me know!
