Corsa body/chassis difference?

Post by N1ck0 CB98 »

Hey guys,

I currently own a 98" 1.2i LS and plan to replace the engine with a 2.5 v6 out of a vectra.
My brother tells me that there is a different between the chassis of a standard corsa b to that of a corsa sport, apparently the sport body/chassis is stronger? is this true?

Cheers

no all corsa shells are exactly the same, but if i were you i would be strengthening the shell.
OFFICAL DVLA DATA:
1414 - corsa gsi's on the road in 2008.
735 - corsa gsi's currently on the road and 436 SORN
Basicly you would have to be a right tw*t to break one for parts :rant:

Thanks to everyone for an awsome weekend at pvs!

Only real differences are that some basic 1.2 8v's don't come with front and rear ARB's and sports also have nicer sportier interiors.
TURBO LAG IS JUST FOREPLAY ;)

2.0 16v GSI SPORT TWIN WEBER 45'S AND KENT CAMS :]
