need some ideas from you guys.

basically my car is -40mm lowered on gmax shocks waiting for me to put my coilovers on which are going to drop the car to -60mm but i noticed the anti rollbar is not even as high as a normal size lighter so i need to upgrade to 16"s. what my problem is i was thinking of getting the cav turbos but they are 5stud can i convert my rear axle to 5stud on drums or does it have to go in2 disc setup, if not what wheels would you suggest as i cant decide comp 2s or porsche d90s could prefer not to go for porsche d90s as of the cost atm the moment but if i have to i will, and if running 16s with -60mm what size tyres should i run?

you need to run rear discs, and 5 stud front hubs its not worth it unless your going XE or LET power, its a hell of alot of hassle just for a set of wheels, get some soft starts, or speedlines if you want 16's. and i the height im running is lower than 60mm all round with my old 15inch fan blades and never had trouble on street roads or speed bumps, had to be carefull on back roads but street roads it was a fine setup. iv only upgraded to 16's as need the clearance for the 2.0 exhaust manifold.

if u stand a lighter up the distance from the floor to my whiteline arb isnt even as big as that so thats y i need a extra inch higher i think

finally alive, got her sorted just need to finish the wiring off inside the car then do oil change, overfilled it, so going to drain it and redo it i think and see if it leaks again after then if all goes ahead exhaust and downpipe to be fitted ready for the mot once its done

sent car off to a mates farm unit where he fitted my exhaust and cut down my down pipe to fit in place. and look at my oil leak problem and inspect the car over. he did the exhaust nicely which is only a temp fixture til i can get money for wideband and funds for powerflow/longlife one made for the car. oil leak turnt out to be a missing bolt that the previous person used for some sort of oil sender so he put a bolt there and filled her up, but i think he's used a thin oil as when the engine starts and idles u cna hear the tappets quite loud (i do know these engines are known for it at start up) so when i change the oil filter again as the filters somehow got a tiny hole init i will put semi synetic to see if the tappets noise dies down. its also revving high on idle, im guessing its icv/ tps but my eml doesnt come on my dials.

anyone with digi dials where is the eml light ment to be?

now i just need to put the car back together, solder the wires inside the car, sort the tints out, cut bumper up for fmic to fit behind it. flush the water out and put anti freeze init then its ready for MOT. days work

Second from left on digi dash is eml

okay thanks. ill have a look tomorrow to see if its there when im doing a few things on the car 2moro

bad news, had sbs from migweb come over to look at my car for 2nd opinion it looks like i have a oil pressure problem so im going to have to bring the engine back out the car for him to have a look out so i wont be driving this anytime soon now

Bummer togear about that tbh

yeah tell me about it.
im gna take my time with it a few diff plans now for it tho, over the winter but im going to have to get me a run around for now tho as of winter and work. so il pick 1 up for now, take the engine out asap and decide what im going to do with the shell as scuttle was cut up for when xe lump was init and deep scratches dwn the drivers side, jackin points caved in, so i mite just get another corsa for now in same colourswap kit over to that for winter then spring change the engine over. or just send the shell to the bodyshop for my mates dad to do the rework to the shell.

few plans for def for the engine tho defo, seeing as its going to be stripped for investigating im going to do mods to help take the extra power
