Not Been On For a While!

Kinda Falling Out Of Love With My Corsa! Becuase Of The Problems I Have Been Having With her!

The Cam Is Not Well And Truley f**k! and the fuel system has a fault! and now my amp is being a f**k nob!

but she looks different spent abit of time on her today!





What do you guys think of her now?

and this is my problem with the cam...





Lobe Has Worn Down ALOT!!

Rattling and just pretty much spraying petrol out of exhaust!! and power it down obviously!!

[gareth136]

looks soooo much better mate keep it up

[Corsa-Sam1989]

'thanks mate!

maybe if i get the cam sorted ill start loving her a bit more!

found a cam and cam kit on ebay for £135 ......but i dont wanna be putting it in for it to just wear down again!

[Jamie1991]

new cam shouldnt wear again, unless its no bein lubricated properly! old cam look knackered thou

Been Planning on Putting a X20XEV In My Clarrisa

never done an engine change on my own before!

what things should i need to change from my 1.2 8v to X20XEV???

thanks!

[PRICER]

everything pretty much look through blue corsa b's project thread on here he's got one in his corsa

[Corsa-Sam1989]

I'm in 2 minds....

I should just fix my cam and give her a good service!

But I been looking at red top's!

I know I can afford to buy one... Fit it all but then struggle with insurance and petrol!

But I just love the look of the engine!

I need to stick with my 1.2 for at least 1 more year !

[PRICER]

haha yepp you do, insurance is a bit of a killer,

[jayybull]

if your in 2minds and too worried about it happening again y dont u try get hold of a cheap 1.2/1.4 block probs cost the same as getting new cam kit from a scrappy.
insurance is only a killer if u declaire it. petrol isnt too bad on the redtops u get about 24/26 miles per £5 which isnt much diff from a 1.4

[Corsa-Sam1989]

Yeah! I don't know why I can't just keep the 1.2 lol

Power hungry!!

Took a few pictures today! She's looking good!!
