I will get some, cars in bits at the moment unfortunately! May if im lucky have it back on road by this evening, havent been able to use it for a week, engine fell out

yeah coilovers do make such an improvement, Becuase i had aftermarket shocks and springs any way, i wasnt expecting to notice much of a difference, but i was well wrong! there is no movement in the body of the car, and it goes round a bend like its on rails! Absolutely loving the coilovers, well worth investing in !!

Yeah, its worth buying some, definitely if you plan to have a couple of corsas! mine are APs , got them for under £500.

Yeah the mount at the front of the gearbox had gone massively loose! and it all fell down on the gearbox side, manifold was between 5-10 mm from the floor lol! got it level now, tightened up that mount, but want to check the other mounts before i put a nev CV joint in and break that ! It would be my luck!

Oh yeh I seen your selling some?

haha well hopefully it wont happen! cause that would be major bad luck!

Going bad to the wheels ive got some astra sport alloys, I think thats what they are! but I dont know if I like the look of them on corsas , but was just gonna try spraying them and having a play to see what they look like. Any colour suggestions?

If i was to spray them, i would go for a gloss black or maybe a glossy graphite?, then do something or another involving the colour of the car ( either part of the centre cap caribic blue, or a thin line round the edge the same colour as the car.

I have black alloys on mine at the moment, but also have a set of mint white o.z racing alloys which im selling but am tempted to do them in gloss black, keep the centre cap carbon fibre, and a thin line round the edge of the alloy the same colour as my car.

Just quite a bit of effort though

I was thinking about doing them in a dark grey with a lip on, but im not sure. Will probably have a bash at it when im bored one day lol! I only bought them for £40 so cant really complain!

Need some new wheels anyway cause mine have got quite alot of curbing (not by me!)
