as my project thread clearly states i was breaking my redtop and i started using my girlfriends clio. the clio technically isn't mine.

so i never chose a renault so stop bubbling because i said your car doesn't look the supposed drop.

no bashing, but id say you are more following the crowd with what you have done instead of being different. you are just following trends. nothing wrong with that though.

im actually on sump no.3 (2 ali now on a tin one which has some big dents in it already)
and pick up pipe no.2
i also had to add a 3mm steel undertray (makes awesome sparks in your wing mirror at night)
yh i know its un practical, but i kinda enjoy fixing it when something breaks as much as i swear about it, but as im getting ready to put my bike carbed redtop in im not really bothered what happens to this engine, the quicker it goes bang the more enthusiasm i will have to pull my finger out and finish the redtop

oh and a couple of pics of my first corsa









mmmm big brakes

i needed some wheels that were correct ofset as the ones i had on it were something like et30-35 and had to be 15" to fit over the 284mm brakes and they came up cheap, but with the breaks i found them to heavy and went to sell them, but ended up buying the red (which is now white) corsa.

and thanx it was a test more than anything, ive literally rubbed it down and white primerd it and thats it, wasnt sure how it would react to weather conditions etc, and it doesnt like to clean easily, so when the weather changes and its warmer evenings ill be rubbing it down and re-doing it white but will laquer it this time

I think it looks awesome. Are you fitting a shallow sump for your 2.0 when it gets fitted?
