mk5 rear beam? interesting!
Hes still got the interior though which we all know is gay... and his engine is proper
Astra will be going through some interesting changes in the next few weeks

i think the corsa c front setup is like the astras
Gaz coilovers are fine for now, the other stiffening measures should sort it out!

its just a minor slip, only done it a few times in 3rd, and once in 4th
as it just spins in 2nd.
hopefully the high power map wont be so hard on the clutch!! as im not changing it!!
well i only want a refurb, but bodyshop guys take the piss with how long they take
2weeks?

could be mate I'd have to work it out, as long as you def only need it for 2 weeks. I need it movable soon as I've got some bits turning up and it needs to be on the road to get it all sorted and I'm too much of a pussy to drive them semi slicks in this weather, though the road tyres are FUCKING awful!
