Thanks m8
Altough it`s just a 1.4 i`m having the biggest fun i could have
The combined weight of the car isn`t much.Combined with a top spec coilover set,cali turbo brakes,light wheels with grippy tyres makes loads of fun on the nurburgring

Now i have a little surprise for you m8.....
My brother also had some corsa`s in the past:
"94 Gsi

(original steel subaru intake from a wrecked impeza)


C20xe :
Polished and ported throttle housing(don`t know the exact translation) and removed the half moon on the throttle valve
Dbilas Dynamic camshaft combination of a 284 and 276 degrees
Chiptuned at mathijssen technics
Full group A exhaust
K&n filter obviously
Girling brakes
After the red had rust on the well known (before "96) places he bought the one that`s now mine:
Pulled the 1.4 out and put a C20Let in it with: Garret T34 turbo,Wrc intercooler,Bigger injectors and higher fuel pressure,DDV phase 3,5 ECU,Quaife ATB diff in F28 gearbox.....That was a nice setup....Too bad the internals couldn`t handle peak pressures of 1.6 bar(23psi),Big fat exhaust with race catalic converter.



Then when the engine began dying we sold everithing back to stock and found out that i needed a car.Then i bought the corsa and began al over again....
And now mine is as it is

This is the stock upper part:

The standard lower part:

Istn`t that the same in the u.k. ??
The blower obviously is gone due to installing the powerbox

If i`m real honest the red gsi was for me the best corsa i ever drove....Altough the blue LET overruled everithing powerwise by having twice the amount of horses the red one did i still would prefer the red one with only 200hp
Everithing was just right.The engine ran like a dream,suspension was spot on and a one for me a one of on exterior with the lowering,wheels,nice bright color.was not the standard opel red,Msd ignition with launch control
Still miss it
