serious like. just not to keen on flame red, unless they have solved the all time mystery to the reason it fades to pink in under a year and then blame it on the english weather/sun/heat/road traffic/anything else that doesnt make vaux look stupid. (had a bad spell with my old corsa)
treat it well! its a git to restore.
other then that, saw a 1.3t corsa nail a 1.4 today on the way back from a mates. souded like a bag o spanners but went well!
any more plans other then the kit?

er i had a play with a 1.4 16v corsa b too, and i kept letting him get close than flooring it. when we stopped at traffic lights he put window down and said what in that mate. i just said 1.3 diesel and his face dropped!!! ive put a cone filter on and it sounds dead deep and rumbly-not like a diesel though, which is good.
im be havin a play with the engine electronics next, get the boost up and have some fiddly with actuators etc. dump valve is well loud.

calibra, my sport 1.6 was 4 years old and still looked deep red when i sold it, fadiing isnt a problem if you look after it, with a good polish every so often. Bubblevaux, when you blow up your new engine for ragging it from brand new, are you going to drop a more powerful engine in?
