    About oil pressur warning, my 1992 vr6 corrado had occasional oil pressure warning after only a few years old. Eventually, I replaced the oil pump, and it never occurred again to this day at 30 years old with over 260k miles . I am the original owner.

    I always enjoy it when a driver has "quiet hands" on the track - very smooth steering inputs

    On the other hand - raggedy old VW bearing clearances...oy.

    If I could own one Volksagen for the rest of my life. Hands down the Corrado VR6. This car did such a big impact on VW and its ashame it ain't that appreciated like the Golf. Can't remember the last car from the 90's like this that had factory supercharger, really quite insane when you think of it!

    • @mc1996

    Battery where the back seats were for better weight distribution. Carbon or GFK hood, doors, etc. There are also uniball wishbones for the Corrado.. or take the full rubber bearings from the Golf R32.. Powerflex is much too inflexible. Etc. Lots of further possible improvements - some quite affordable too.

  • @andypullin4702
    @andypullin4702 3 роки тому +2

    Pure guess, but maybe the low oil pressure was caused by hard braking for the yellow while on uphill/cambered corner, so possibly a second or so where not much oil picked up (all gone wrong side of the sump) , 20 secs or so later that momentary lack of oil hits the sensor and beep beep, then it's OK again but needs restart to stop the warning?

      It might be worth throwing a sensor it. I know there are two but above a certain rpm it’s one sensor and below it’s the other, I think 2350 is the rpm)
      I remember in my g60 corrado back in 1998 I had a problem that was solved with a different cluster as it was a problem in the oil control circuit.

    Very smooth and relaxed lap, I wish he would heel & toe or at least rev match. It literally makes me sick as a passenger when someone doesn't😐😅

    • @Corradomichi
      @Corradomichi 3 роки тому

      I try to allways rev match but the rpms are really slow to get up from the lower range. You need to press the gas very long but you see the on the video, the camera snaps back cause i let go off the brake fast to hit the gas and not forwards what it would if i bring the rpm up with the clutch. Heel and toe is to hard for me on this car cause the gas pedal is really far offset to the right. i would have to rotate my foot allmost 90° to hit it.
      Sorry for the long ass comment but it bothers me too if someone slams the clutch on the downshifts and i dont do that😁
