not sure on the hubs as they were on the car when i got it. the cv's are from the vectra B with the vectras r/h shaft and a corsa B 2l conversion shaft on other side. got that from LMF about £60?

Thanks for that, so it's all really just a mix and match of things. I like they way they sit in the bay like that's how they came from the dealer.

I have a video of Steve leaving a toll booth in France when we went to GTi international. Was rapid.

Is there no way you could get a standard air box to fit? Maybe a battery bag for it aswell?

no corsa C's have front exit air boxes to my knowledge? thought about dbilas flow master but dont like dealing with regal. had the viper left over from the corsa B and it fits nice. may get a battery cover at some point. still loads to do. given up today as its snowing here!

Just an idea, I know people use the 1.9diesel air boxes on the zlet conversions. May be worth looking at that. I wanted to get out in garage today but its snowing here too and it's too bloody cold for me lol

it was one of the first z20lets in the uk, had decent power to 360bhp+ i think?
done me ok for the price, its only done 19500miles!
Yeah did look in a sorry state, looked around his new astra coupe the other day, its all stripped with the cage being welded in but doesn't seem to be getting any further on
If its any think like his old corsa it'll be pretty special

keeping it n/a, i did price up a turbo conversion but thers not much room down the back of the engine to fit one. can be done but not this time. its mainly going to be transport for the sound system thats going in.
steve realy has taken his time with the astra, he built the corsa up fairly quickly. to busy with are old triumph herald!
