but why are you running coil pack and leads, not a disc pack like the 1.8's should have?

like

The header tank doesnt fit with 1.8 inlet either.. Something fish going on

He's running C16NE management, thats why it looks funny

Gotta learn to read bud.. i said im running stand alone management.. but i ran it on the 8v management whe nthe motor first went in as i was gonna have it chipped and tuned .. and it didnt run perfectly but ran well enough to keep up with a corsa OPC/VXR with 3 passenger until 4th

Not actually 100% sure, since i didn't do the conversion myself, and this is my first car and knowledge about this is a bit limited. So still trying to learn whats what.
What are those and what do they do..
Please excuse my lack of cleverness

So had some problem with my brakes. So i bought some Ate Drilled And Slotted Disks and Premium Pads. Will take some Pics sometime.

Also a friend gave me some lowering springs that were supposed to be at least a 20/10 drop, fitted the back spring to find that the rear is now sitting 10mm higher than with the standard springs, so didn't even bother with the front

Quick pic i took on my phone, lets just pretend the clear coat isnt peeling off the rims, and there is no curb rash

Okay so this weekend i took the Steel rims in to be Widened and was told they will be ready within the next week or two due to being very busy. Then they will be painted with a black centre and flame red dish.. And hopefully by then the coilovers will arrive aswell. And eeverything will come together nicely!

Got the Steelies Back!!! And THEY LOOK THE TIT'S

Unfortunately they are being sent back

Although Changing the centre bore was on the Job card.. they forgot to change it so rims dont fit the corsa..
Also, they seem to have misunderstood the point of widening them

They are 7j wide but the offset is insane..
even if they fit on the corsa they wouldnt fit unless i cut a couple cm into the shocks and body

But other than that their work is SUPERB!!!

3rd time lucky
