not posted for ages and been in hiding, got new digital camera today so thought i would take few pics!
car is filthy at the min!
bought it bout month back with clutch playing up, so last week had engine out, new clutch, release baring, mater cyliner etc! so its all sorted now!
got dyno read out for 240bhp. so it goes well, not great on fuel, was thinking of keeping as run about so i can go madder on the van but its not good on fuel for ran about, so will be for sale soon if anyone is interested, bought a damaged run about car which i am repairing then will be selling corsa after that!
wot u guys think?
my plan was gonna be, get smaller looking exhaust and some standard wheels and big brake conversion! real nice sleeper then!
car is in VERY good condition, engine done about 20k miles and car done 36k! got recepts for over 10k of work with fitted of engine etc
will give it a clean some time and get some beta pics!
will have some pics of the van latter with its new modified bumper!

Yeah they are pretty decent cars, mine doesn't have a rattle or nothing and the engine is quite quiet as standard what model and colour you got?

my van is running standard ecu and even with stage 1 and 3-4psi extra boost makes big difference!
just add larger afm and vxr fuel rail and re map and will have 290hp reliably!
would be scary then
