Get 2 slim line fans and put them on the front of the radiator between the intercooler and rad, will free up space in bay and look neater.
that was the plan to do but there is no room, the rad is as far forward as poss there

Might seem a bit of a rude question but what sort of money have you spent all in?

The wrong side of 20k I would say
It'll be worth it though, as it'll be the best Corsa in the UK in my eyes, and worth every penny.

came up with a prob yesterday , greg came and droped of my tx autosport upper pully but the hole in the middle is 17mm and the spindel on the alt is 15 mm so cant use that , ended up using the sbd 4 rib upper and the tx autosport 6 rib bottom one, just hope the belt will work this way without jumping off
pic just for refrence for me
you can see on this pic the spare ribs
then got my door handels back from the painters, had to use these ones as i dont have any lock on the car atm
will drop the car on the floor tomorow and fit them
had to swap the lower arms and spacers around as had them the wrong way am just wating for the bolts for ball joint to hub from vauxhall tommorow as snaped them with buzz gun
drilled out the rad holes on the lowwer crossmenber and also trimed down the thread that was sticking out as a boost pipe sits on it and threw a bit of paint on it
bolted up the map sensor and the remote oil sensor to bulk head
and a pic of turbo set up as forgot to take one the other day
