Thought I'd post some pictures up of my old corsa. Some of yo may recognise it is Dav of Redline magazines old project.
This was when I'd just bought the car
Then I dropped the car onto Speedline Allesio 2's and Fk Coilovers which meant the front bumper had to go along with the 17's
This was just after I'd had the DBilas throttle bodies on the car which transformed the performance immensly.
This is my daily driver number now
And my Vento VR6
