Corsa-B.uk - Vauxhall, Opel and Holden Corsa B Owners Club

Had a look around on eBay springs and shocks are expensive :O hmm just replace the drop links with new ones or uprated ones?.

Little update, I decided the side light bulbs in the car look terrible so I purchased a set of Cree sidelight bulbs off of eBay for £9.99 after a mate recommended them to me



So got about fitting them, only a two minute job I know but makes a big difference.

One done and already the difference is amazing:


Two done and job done:


Next up Is HID's, now I had a set of H7 conversions given to me with the car, they were on it but sadly one has blown so the previous owner took them off:


So a work colleague gave me these in work today, sadly I don't have the correct ballasts to fit

That's awesome light for sidelights, got a link to them?

Hids will look

Yeah man here you go:

Thanks mate

Any luck finding a bumper for it yet or you still just enjoying it

Found some on eBay but there going for £320 plus replica ones or about £100 but i want a custom one like my mate had, this is his old coupe and the look I'm after:

That looks badass but it's just calling out for a front mount intercooler imo

Yeah but it's only a 1.8 like mine . Don't know where it is now though .

Turbo project then

Andy made his own custom bumper for his, should ask him about it

yeah will do, turbo it will be expensive And I wouldn't know where to start with it .

Turbos can be done cheap if you have a scrap yards with Subarus or an astra turbo

They can be mix mashed together although it's not something I'd suggest doing over a weekend on a daily driver because your using parts that weren't ment to used

We did a turbo conversion on a 1.0 liter micra years ago from just old parts, it was a turbo off a 2.5 Scooby and it spooled for about 5 mins and bit of acorn pipe and just crap that was nobody wanted:lol: it blew the engine second or third time the turbo kicked in but like the whole thing cost 150 Inc car

Just a shot or two from last night and today.



And the engine, not sure if I can pick up a spark plug cover for it, not sure on the engine code but here it is:


Update wise I've got her booked in to pro-speed exhausts to have the centre section removed and a strait through pipe put in, also going to pick up a set of 40 mil lowering springs

Sounding good mate quite liken the coupes

You get plastic covers for them or make a spark plug cover from abit of sheet metal

And the engine is a z18xe iirc

Hate the plastic covers for them look so tacky. Thanks Johnny can have a scope around on eBay now I know the code .
