hi i thought it was about time i posted how im getting on with my corsa.
it started life as a 1.4 16v sport
heres some pics of my old gsi before it blew up and i sold it wat you think










un fortunately i dont have any pics of the sport when i bought it. heres the pics tho from then to now






then bought these


and fiitted them


then decided it was time to get the red top fitted




out it came


nice empty bay


then red top all bolted up and fitted


oil cooler fitted


new 2ltr brakes


then bought a uprated manifold and got onto wrapin it straght away








and fitted


got this thanks to c r a i g of here


and this is how it stands at the moment the inside is fully stripped out. just waitng to fit the rest of the exhaust sort out my push button start and kill swith etc. and waiting toget my poly windows and roll cage ang gna get these to fit


hope you all like what ive done so far.

Nice work, I imagine my project thread will be similar to this

Think I may mount my oil cooler like that, perhaps slightly lower though
