Project chug a bug

Post by steviewonder »

Ok im really loving my corsa so heres my list of current mods and my intentions for later on in its life lol

Current mods when i bought it are:-
1. 60mm lowered suspension
2. GSI spoiler
3. Astra GTE alloys (i think)


Modifications for the future short term include:-
1. Debadged grill
2. Refurb and powdercoat alloys
3. Coilovers
4. Possibly exhaust if not then let MOT expire and track the car using an engine transplant.


Heres some pics of my Corsa (the blue one) with my lupo and my little sisters corsa too (the white one).

Thats cool to know thanks ;)

ideas for the corsa now are coilovers, new tyres and powdercoating wheels white/orange and hopefully buying my mates c20xe engine off him for nice and cheap but he warned me the c20xe engine would seriously create negative handling and a hell of a lot of understeer so another mate of mine has suggested that the 1600 16v thats in the gsi would be my best choice for handling and said he doesnt think their would be much difference in acceleration and top speed is that right?

Either way i need to shift a set of golf full leather recaro seats to gain some extra cash for the corsa as i dont want to use money i have saved for the lupo
