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

A lot has changed since the last time I came on here. My old silver 1.0 12v Corsa got wrote off by my mates great driving!

So got a new one, V reg, blue, 1.2 16v. Got big plans for it. Had it a month or so but not been on here yet.

Will get some pictures up as soon as possible. Going to go debdadge it now i think. Should be err. . . fun?

Ok, i have debadged the boot but no pictures as of yet due to my laptop being broken.

I'm also part way through installing a sub, but realised that my amp was broken part way through so should be finishing off that job tomorrow. Also seeing about some new door speakers. I say door speakers, we are just bodging some hifi speakers into my door for that extra bit of kick

Anybody know if none standard door speakers will effect pannel rattle? Cause my standard one buzz all the time if its remotely loud. Any advice on reducing it the rattle would be much appreciated.

look forward to seeing pics

the standard door speakers get damp and fall to bits or just cus they have been hammered in the past, buy some of those adaptor plates from halfords or even ebay so you can fit aftermarket speakers in the doors using the original mountings , get them pics up so can have a look at it

Right well the boot is debadged along with them silly corsa club badges, sub is fitted too. I went to change the door speakers but turns out they were already some pinoneer bad lads (I always thought they sounded a bit weightier than my last car). I have to say, my sub must have the scruffiest wiring job ever due to it being done my me and my mates, really needs tidying up. Cables need shortening, needs running under the carpet and just needs some general TLC. Defo needs doing, sick of telling my girlfriend to watch the wires everytime she gets in and out of the car! haha.

Now it is due to be lowered 60mm all round on Saturday after i finish work. Should look pretty tidy if all goes to plan.

Just had a new back box and mid exhaust fitted due to my other one being well. . . errr. . . frigged. Used moan and groan with any weight in the back, that now appears to be fixed and it sounds better now. It's nothing special, its just new and shiny haha. Also had a new back drivers side tyre put on aswell due to some nasty screw puncturing my old one and then nearly putting the tyre wall through, making it unable to be repaired.

Sadly my laptop is still broken so can't get any photos up at the moment but i will do as soon as i get a replacement or one of my mates is kind enough to let me upload pictures from their computer.

Well looking forward to dropping it on Saturday!!!

Ok, seein' as you were keen to see some pictures, i scavved about and found some from a few days before i took the badges off. Gave it a nice clean before these pics enjoy

loooks a nice lil motor , cnt wait see what you do to it ,. what wheels are they? they look small lol .

14's mayteeeee, cause im bad laddddd! haha.

They were on it when i bought it. Wouldn't have been my choice of alloys, but they will do. Better than trims haha. I fancy some 15s or 16s. Just the cash init really.

I fancy getting either a plain or an Opel grill for it. What you think?

well id say get either cav slabs , fanblades, or astra sport alloys mate , any vauxhall sport wheels look mint when cars lowered . yer get a de-badge grill makes alot of difference .

How much u rec for a de-badged grill? Im a bit short of cash atm. But when i got a bitta cash in, its on my list. Also fancy some new alloys, but that really will take a bitta cash.

Tax is due end of this month too. Not looking forward to having to pay for that. After that, don't think i have to pay off untill Insurance in July or summat. So its gonna be mod mod mod till then haha.

nice clean car you got there mate , look forward to seeing it when you lowered it
