He charges £2500 for the conversion, seen some of his work.

Amazing stuff, 6 litre twin v6 4wd corsa FTW!

i had no idea what he charges for a conversion! he had a twin engined 4wd KA as well iirc! awsome stuff. There are a few of his corsa conversions kicking about, sometimes turn up on ebay or Pistonheads!

Iv got 1 of these from powercrazy mines running 220 bhp will get a thread started soon good to here from someone else who's experienced the fun

yeah, awesome stuff. wish i'd never sold it now!! :lol:would rather a V6 astra though!

plenty more planned for it, so keep watching

was it hard to drop tht v6 into a corsa

looks awryt mate, hows it handle? my mate had one kickin out about 400bhp and was amazing in a straight line but was a completly different story comin to corners lol, got any further plans?

Now that looks the buisness buddy very impressed!!!

you sure theyre 15" as v6 brakes dont fit with anything under 16"s mate, well thats what i read on corsa sport

it depends what 15s u put on mate

yea you can run 15's but only on some alloys, and even then you are like mm away from the rim. and on some alloys you have to remove the wheel weights so as to get the clearance.

awryt cool. if i was to do it id just go with the 16"s lol, the engine bay looks nice but the car lets it down i think, and the induction bit it the front is just wrong in my eyes lol

induction is a bit ott i will agree

all i need to say is i want that v6

well, it definatly had 288mm brakes behind 15" softstars, just cleared. (bit low for 16's i found) personally i liked how it looked (a bit crappy) people wheren't expecting what was powering it.
I no longer have this car sold it a fair while back but thanks for the comments anyway, if i had kept it would have sorted the outside etc but hay ho. I am now working on a new corsa b project anyway amoungst other things.

The handling wasn't too bad but really needed new shocks that i never got round to doing.

The induction scoop did look a bit crap but was an attempt to help with air feed to open induction filter/hot running problems etc. certainly seemed to help but if i had kept it would have disgusied it! needed a new front bumper anyway as you can see!!!
