I,ve got sri 130 motor and hopeing to drop engine into my 96 corsa 1.2 8v,
my big prob injection or change to carb. I have all the bits but havent got a 4x2 on the loom ???

ive just got a banger of an astra gte & goin 2 be putin the rear beam an my corsa 4 the disks ill keep u up dated on everything

Heres a question for you. Do you know how much of a mission it is to put a C18NZ engine into a corsa. I currently have a C12NZ engine they look the same but will the loom be the same???:o

there is one already its called "tutorials faq" its just under the help zone modification section

yea, is there gonna be a pinned forum on how to do things to a corsa yourself to save cash?

I dont come in this section that often so would prefer peeps to u2u me their FAQ answers and tutorials.

Anything is welcome pretty much.

Thanks

Did some interior spraying not so long ago - just the inside mirror covers and glovebox handle. All you need is 2 cans of Halfords Plastic Primer, 4 cans of Vauxhall paint (the Halfords stuff didn't match) and some wet and dry paper grade 400 - 1000. Rubbed down the stuff for a while with the 400 grit, then 600, then 800 and 1000. Wait till its quite smooth then a coat of primer, wait 10 mins, another coat, wait 10 mins another coat. Wait 2 hours then rub it down slightly with 1000 grit, then wipe and spray with colour. 10 minutes do another coat. And every 10 mins do another coat until your satisfied (did 3 coats.) Wait an hour and spray with lacquer and leave to dry overnight. Hey presto! nicely colour coded bits.

cheers most of the credit goes to the people that actually told u wat to do instead of wanderin off the case like i did :lol:

@romford i got a guide on how to fit a strut brace ready that was in the haynes manual if ya want it:wave:

Most of you will have seen this but we have a Tutorials & Faq's Forum.

We need your help to make this the most extensive information listing CorsaSport has ever seen. If you have done any work to your corsa or are planning to do something, no matter how small, I need you to send me what you did, how you did it, what tools you needed and if you have a digital camera then some pictures would be even better.

So if all of you can send me just one tutorial or an answer to a question that gets posted on our forums everyday then we would be looking in excess of 300 suggestions. Now that means your pretty much GUARANTEED to then see something that you need help with yourself, all for that 5 minutes extra you took to write down the problems you encounterd and how you overcame them.

So remember:
Get sending me your D.I.Y guides, no matter how small they are (even changing a bulb in quad conversions) and you can help us build up a huge file on Corsa's that could be even bigger than we ever imagined.

Cheers :D
