Right then i take it some of you saw it at donny. It was the shed like one on the justnovas stand. I didnt build it to look pretty, i built it to own much faster cars which it did very nicely on its first outing on track. Here is the spec anyway.

Engine- c20let, xe inlet cam, frontera intercooler, breather mod
Transmission - F28 6 speed converted to 2wd with a F20 lsd machined into the box.
Its running avo coilovers all round, poly bushes all round, tie bars lowered, fully seam welded and competition engine mounts.

I get the impression its already offended many people due to the way it looks, very battered lmao. Hopefully it will be tidy'd up a bit by pv hopefully, i.e kick out the rear 1/4's. Anyway enjoy and expect to see it spanking some expensive cars this year on track.

Will it not have an adverse effect to the handling so low? Not really up on how the handling works in regards to lowering.

I was talking to the guy from justnovas about this, he said you had been out and had some fun

I personally would tidy it up a bit, may be some brackets or something instead of the tape

I reckon it'd look alot better totally standard (as is) but tidy. Poeple will probably get onto it being fettled in that state imo

The roll cage and front bumper kind of give it away anyway. Surely just being a corsa is sleeperish enough, no excuse not to give it a clean!
