Want it back 
Looking good Chris, nice to see you've tidyed up the boot install now and put a clean filter on
I wont tell em all its my hard work 
Yeah I wasn't that keen on angle of exhaust but after what it cost I lived with it. Perhaps see if someone skilled will cut the tail pipes off and weld them back at a more suitable angle, rather than have a whole new box custom fabricated?
Hows she running, any probs since we last spoke?

Sounds good. Plugs and oil had only covered about 1K miles
prior to sale, doh 
Could do with new leads, but sit down when Vauxhall quote you
the price for OE leads.
Hows the ICE, deaf yet? Thats the biggest bit I miss about it, that
was the bit that really used to turn heads and had the wow factor.

What ALL the ice or just amps/sub? If you took all the wiring out it would take you a week LOL.
As for the stereo, quite litterally hours spent on an RTA meter to get it where it was at. Has to be set up perfect as it runs silly power through quite seeming low-grade woofers. If the signal were to clip for even a short period I'd expect the coils would melt.
Shame that over the years I built it it never really got any coverage as I tended to keep myself to myself. Been working on my Astra today, only painted the calipers but I feel it all beginning again... That Corsa only started with a £10 fuel cap cover and £7 sun-strip and look where its at now...
£45 on oil and plugs 
God I love tradeclub, £15 oil and £1 per plug. Just had the Astra Sporthatch serviced by the dealership and that came out at under £100 for labour AND parts
