strip it out.
I wouldn't remove the front one, just put another one on the back.

bog bros should be able to sort out anything throttlebody/carb related for fairly cheap.

white line ARB's are bloody expensive imho i think the Tegra's front arb are thicker than a corsa arb not 100% tho

You don't want a thicker front ARB unless you put an even thicker one at the back.

I agree ive just got a VTS for 1200 and driving wise it smashes the corsa and is just as quick as an xe. Everything else is worse about it but for a track car/fun drive this doesnt matter. Stripped out it would be even quicker

then use the money left to fix em. i think I have knacked a drive shaft already from driving it like a tool


Most fun I have ever had on b roads though. Much better then the CTR as it is smaller and doesnt tramline into hedges when you boot it

themoney left over can be spent buying another one
