hey all first post on here, not great at doin threads on these but ill give it a go and as many pics as possible, nobody on mig web has really been any help to me, i feel you only get help if your a premium member on there so maybe you can help me on here,

my plans are to have the car freshened up paint wise new bumpers new arches because mines are all pretty scuffed up, old guy had the car before me ! and the fact i had an accident but sorted most of that now !

hoping to ( with help on here ! ) have a 1.6 8v in it at some point rather than the 1.4 8v thats in it, as after 130 000 miles its pretty done ! beginning to smoke pretty bad etc, and the engines not worth fixing if i can get the 1.6 in no problem ! so ill upload some pics asap

the current mods arent much but they consist of

green cotton filter
complete straight through decat system welded up by myself
ignition timing has been advanced 6 degreese
LO lowering springs 60mm all round PI shock absorbers
CAV mk1 cdx ronal alloy wheels
gsi interior
HID headlight conversion
plenty sound system to keep anyone happy !if anyones interested ill get into more detail about it
and some other bits and peices not worth listing but obviously all add up to make a small difference in performance

some carbon wrapped parts ( might i add me and my mate are FIFE CARBON WRAPPING you can find us on facebook if any body is interested ! )


missing front arches new bonnet though and new divers wing !

That's a sweet colour all polished up and I've also never seen a three door corsa on that colour before
