i wouldnt go any higher than phase mate, and spend money making it into a concourse car rather than one thats going to cost you ££££ repairing all the time
Stick with phase 2, with arp rod bolts, head bolts etc etc
Loving the cally though 
Ive never heard phase 3.5 be anymore unreliable than phase 2.

Looks like its a nice standard example.
18" version of my wheels would look good on it

Early Calibras had plastic badges.
Later ones had chrome like this one.

looks very nice, you seem pleased with it
2 things though
1) will it not be slower and break just like you corsa ??? thought you were trying to get away from that
2) never ever let mattb near it, it will be in the pavemnt of doom before you know it

Its slower in a straight line JR, but it goes round corners like you wouldnt beleive and you can plant all that power to the floor.
I wanted a bigger more refined car
If looked after itl be perfectly reliable. The only major thing to go on corsa was my smokey turbo. Didnt effect the running just drank a litre of oil a week. and lots of people flashed me 
Mattb is a good boy, strangely tho the corsa HAS been on the pavement of doom and it is due to be split

I just had a spasticated thought Jambo, are you selling the interior from the Corsa? Or is your sister having it?

Seems so yes, corsa is only up for sale for a wee while, someone whos interested in it doesnt want the interior.
So my sister may want it. But if someone wants to make an offer
