haha ah right ok, welcome, stick some photos up, and that sounds a rather rare engine you'l be building is it worth the hastle? keep up informed tho

welcome, the plans deffinatly sound different. keep us updated and make sure theres loads of pics, you can never have to many pics!

few pics to update the project











my c14se engine curentley being rebult to top spec( port n polisht ,kent farst rode cam,solid lifters,race valve springs, lightend balenced flywheel)

wuld like to see 115 bhp + from this engine with a remap arfter all the goodeys

nice little motor there mate... like that new exhaust

nice engines those 1.4's are, why dont you stick side draft webbers on it while your going to all the trouble of doing up the engine,

looks tidy m8, love that color green of the vauxhalls, its nice to see a shiny one

no point in putting wedbbers on because i am going to turbo the 1.4 eventuly once i acumalate the parts to do so lol

shes got a few marks on her but nothink bad for her age. deciding wether to got with a full respray or get the car detaield ? lol

personally i would just get your worse bits done as a full respray will cost you more than the cars worth unless u can paint..

car is really clean mate, liking the new exhaust system, much it cost you? after one for my 1.2 8v any more plans for now until engine done?

Greeen, beast of a colour for corsas

iv tryed using those touch up pens for it n got it to best i can but still think it culd go better lol , found a mate that can spray my car for me on the cheap just pay for paint n time in spray booth but gotta save up first lol.
i've got a whole list of things still to do mate from anti rolebars to polly bushes respraying the lower arms n rear trayling beam the list goes on lol,

just wating for my coilovers to come but unsure how far i want to drop atm 60-80 mm sounds good for now

try ebay for exhuast systems the system i've got is a sportex 4-2-1 (which i will heat wrap when i swap engines over) then a full sportex with centre box and a 3" rolled box
sounds good for a 1.2 but when i get my 1.4 in there it will be straight through to back box be LOUD lol
