got my corsa B as a little run about so i dont have to use my S14 everyday!
heres what it looked like when i got it a month ago
got some bits and time and did the following;
ta technix coilovers
sport front bumper
smoked the depo/lucas headlights
De-badged the boot
Removed rear arches and pull the arches and tiger sealed back on
Enkei K cups 15x6.5j with 20mm spacers at the rear
Cream Calibra leathers
Machine polished it
As it is now
Today ive spent the day tinkering, repainted the enkei in the same colour (bmw sepang bronze) and adjusted the camber on the front so its now normal!

Whats making it brake all the while??? Ive ran my car on cheap fk coilovers on an apparently 100mm drop for well over a year and ive had no problems with driveshafts or cv joints. Be a shame to have to put it back to standard.
