as you may of seen before i bought myself a m reg corsa gsi off ebay for sill money ( £200 ) which i had to collect from brighton. ( bit of a mission but worth it for the money i paid) the car had been sitting for 2 months as it didnt have not tax or mot. ( still worth the money lol) as i put it on the recovery truck i pulled up the handbrake and it snapped lol oh well was gona do the brakes neways.


got it home and give it a nice clean







come out very nice
only few minor scratches but you cant see them unless your looking lol

few more pics after a polish










interior :










engine:








then my fk coilovers turned up ( £165) delivered was at my door the next day




this is how it looks at the front:







havent done the back yet as it was getting dark but tackling that 2morrow

speedlines or cesaros
full s/system and d-cat.
performance manifold,
k&n 57I kit,
and maybe chrome half cage.
and some tinted rear lights.

dont want to go over the top really like the car standard they look much better. not changing the interior or body kit coz its wat makes it a gsi lol

got to finish off fitting my fk coilovers tomorrow so the backs lowered.
fronts lowered 70mm atm lol bit low as i cant get it off my drive now lmao
got 60 mm springs for the back so wont be stupidy low. but the standard gsi wheels makes it look like its scraping the floor lol
