Its true that them civics are fast, but thats not everything!
They look gash, they sound gash and they are usually driven gash! Not many Civics in Rally GB!

Throw some money at the corsa, bet you can get a 1600 16V and do the rest of the things on the list and get change from 2K.... get it done then drive to the Isle of Man, well fun lol

id do love rally cars..but i love the jap stuff. eventualy i want a civic for road use,then some kind of rally car-to actually rally,so wont be road legal.

i cant afford the time or money dropping bigger lump in my corsa yet tho :( if i do keep it il probz drop some kind of 1.6 lump in,duno if it wil be nova or corsa lump.

i once had a 1.4 nova sr..but way before driving age so didnt keept it-my grandad only paid 50squid fr it-and he spent everyday polishin the engine lolmbut he took the sports exhaust off coz he thought it was too loud lmao :lol:

yeh im savin up for alloys lol...on a tight budget at the moment....not sure if i should go for white ro black 15s? white is more rally style...but im colour codin bumpers,arches and mirrors white..and think whight wheels as well would be too much..plus i live by a farm..so white wheels would b brown most da time :?

Na take them stickers off they look gash... just plain white colour coded looks classy and you can still get that rally look with a Gsi kit and alloys, lower it and a rumbley exhaust and your sorted!! Honest no need 4 stickers and the local bitchs will be dripping 4 it.... thats what its about 4 me lol

Need to put some pics on here of my car once its sorted out, engine getting re-built to stage 3 so i should have a nice set of pics to go with that!!
