hi i bought this corsa, its a 1.4 sri 16valve, twin cam. its a 1995 corsa. Im changing it into a rally car so i thought it would be a good post for you guys to have a browse at ( and hopefully follow the build :D )
Image

First thing i done was took off the wolfrace katana alloys (17" they're for sale 8) )
i put my other alloys on it ...
Image

put an OMP Roll cage in and replaced the hole where the radio goes with an aluminium square with my switches on :D ...
Image

will add more as i do it :D please rate and comment :D

lol cheers, nah just got it, not gonna sell it, its so quick! i was looking at 205 gti's or escort mk2's to rally, two reasons why i didnt get them:
1- insurance D:
2- spares are so expensive!!

but yeah this should be a good little car when its finished :D, should have more pics up by end of week :D

i meant sell the steering wheel not the car lol . ( incase you miss understood ) corsa's are tip top for road rally car , small ,compacted , quick and parts are cheap. :)

The WOLFRACE KATANA alloys are for sale (1st pic) and a set of GMAX 60mm lowering springs and front shocks. The suspension kit is in well used condition but works fine ( springs deffinately need a lick of paint :))
