get a smashed gsi

thats V true mate!as far a 1.0 ltr brakes go they are shit any way, think i might invest in some astra gte brakes and calapers;)

I'd suggest uprating the brakes too to 1.6 spec at least! Not unless u want 1.6 speed and 1.0 brakes... wouldnt suggest it lol. I changed the brakes on my 1.2 8v to GSI ones and they're much better, never hurts to have good brakes anyway :thumbs:

PVD went bust last year m8:thumbs:

does anyone no the address for the PVD webb site?

spot on,
besides the loom shud the transplant be relatively straight forward?obviously new suspension, brakes, drive shafts gear box and so on will be required

yeah and ecu and immobilsor chip

so if i want to put the 1.6 in then what is the sore wth the loom?
Is it a case of getting a new one?

wiring loom is the same as the 1.2 16v which i had originally, it still wire for wire colour wise, but i just made the connections on the outside before it went into the car, which is a bit of a bodge, but its either that or take the dash out i think

disclaimer: this may not be correct for vauxhall ecu's as my engine was run using MBE engine management and i therefore used 3 wires out of the vauxhall loom

i am thinking of getting an engine direct off vauxhall a re con possibly. i no the only majour pain in the bum will be the wiring loom as the 1.0 has a different loom to other corsas

it cost me the engine price, plus £35 for an engine mount.
but i did it myself

hey
i have recently just sed bye bye to my 1.0 as it was only running on 2 cylinders and it is time to get rid and replace it wid a 1.6. has anyone done this and have they faced any probs?i was wundering if anyone nos how much it wud cost to do this transplat roughly
Many thanks phil
