This is THE best car i have seen, would love to see it in the flesh and take a ride in it!
Its the sort of thing i wanted to do to my GSI keeping it factory but up to date and mint. Its money, time and skill i dont have though!

easy enough done though innt.. already running a front mount intercooler and VXR turbo... it would really benift from getting mapped if you wanted the power up some more...
and as for the re-trim book it in and get it sorted...
it'll get done unless the correct offer for the car came along - which would be a very sad day for me

this is truely a stunning car
and also if you already have the FMIC and the VXR turbo, all you need is plugs and a re-map for about 280bhp!

Standard Astra part (90437610) available from any Vauxhall dealer. My other half has one in her 04 SRi Corsa.
Awesome project tho. Glad you kept it Flame Red (pink) too.

Should have been an easy slot in job.
I fitted it, using the early spec stereo facia (which is no longer available).
No cutting or butchering is required.
I also have one in my Astra, that's a direct fit too.

How much does it cost from VX? I may get one and another facia and have a fiddle to see what I can come up with!

How much have you spent on the corsa since you had it, if you don't mind me asking?
