Iv'e always wanted a corsa for my 1st car i past my test in a black corsa so i went out and bought 1, some of you may know this car but alot of you may not. I was always too busy with work to do a project thread and spend time on the internet, but with buying a new car i thought id start 1. i would also like to say Thank you to all you guys and girls for all your help and support.
This was my old car:
This is how i got my new car
Bought the car to strip out loose every single bit of excess weight and drop a c20xe engine inside, sadly my redtop needs new pistons and re-bore so need save up lol........
Turns out the car is very very fast discovered head work has been done port and polish, cams and re-map.
