DONE NEW PROJECT THREAD AS OTHER ONE WAS SCRUFFY

first off i had a white 1.2 corsa with e16se conversion done on it , swapped it for the current car i have now and £150 was handed to me

heres the thread to it
http://www.corsasport.co.uk/board/viewt ... tid=571335

got the satin red corsa with standard everything apart from its lowered all round 60 mill on fk shocks and springs , also as part of the deal i kept my slabs


first thing i did was get rid of the horrible standrd Ls seats and bought some calibra leathers

then went to scrap yard and bought my c16se engine out of astra

also bought some 2.0 cav sri breaks

bought a tin of underseal , a tin of satin red paint

and started to do my conversion

wanted it to run propperly before i was going to clean it all up propper .

then after 2 days my car was broke so firstly thought it was the gearbox , so i bought a new one and then started to strip car to fit my new gearbox which was a f15cr instead of the f13 i had on at the time . Turned out whilst stripping the car it had snapped part of the drive shaft on the inner cv

at this point i had been buying loads of other bits for it so thought might aswell do the conversion again and clean everything up while im at it

CLEANED ENGINE BAY DE GUNKED IT UNDERSEALED PARTS OF IT AND RESPRAYED IT
