just a couple of pictures of my rear callipers to which are hydraulic and have a handbrake cable function
as ive decided to build a let for this i had a route round my garage and found a couple of turbos to have a measure up
this one (T25 ithink) is off a 2.3 saab motor my brothers got, which he keeps trying to talk me into putting in the corsa
this one is a t28 thats off a 2.0 8v turbo kit
both seem a bit small, i've found one on ebay and i should be getting it this weekend

my turbo arrived this morning and its far too large for what i need it for so i think il put it back on ebay to get my money back,
i have had a look at a few other let builds and have decided which turbo will suit my needs

not much progress in last few days,
bought some M3 throttle bodies so waiting on them to arrive, i can then alter them into a 4 cylinder set up also need to measure them up so i know what size block of aluminium i need to buy to make a inlet manifold to suit
i found out my mates mk2 escort was featured in fast for a couple of months back
also made a few "corsasport.co.uk" stickers last night for a couple of people on here
