Hi everyone,
Been on here for years now and finally decided to make a project thread of my corsa that ive done bits and bobs to it.
Things done so far:
new standard exhaust
irmscher splitter
cav slabs
new radiator
pipercross panel filter
Things to do:
fit irmscher side skirts
full Service belts and water pump
repaint alloys
new brakes 2.0l ??
and lower it to tide up the handling a bit
fit better seats
and a better exhaust
fit new clutch
and fix the headgaskit
any way ive had it 5 years now and its a 1994 corsa sri
when i 1st got it
and how it is now
any comment or suggestion is welcome

Looking just as clean as it did when you met me for the Splitter!
Nice one.
Only thing I would do is remove the restriction plate from the back of the upper Grille, to a) make it less red, and b) allow a bit more airflow to the Rad
