Need to start ready up again to get her ready for track!

Just looking at a couple of bits for it, would you recommend the z18xe 4-1 manifold? and poly bush on the front?

Also i think the pickup in the gearbox has gone as it wont give a speed readying and iv changed the plug and the bit you screw in already? steerings really light and annoying ! Also would you advise to blank the egr?

Sorry to bump up an old topic but it's a question regarding the fuel system, can the fuel lines/pump etc be swap over from the vectra to the corsa to save messing around with the fuel pressure regulator?

I think they can bud but im not 100% but would think it be easier to use the regulator!?

im hoping after new year to buy a pre-converted corsa B with either the X18XE1 or Z18XE and have a fully fledged track car!

Yep, still got it. It's been sat off the road ever since the box went again a year or so ago.
