Ello decisions decisions decisioooonnsnsnsnnsns
Just been thinking on what I want to do.
Im really thinking of selling the skyline when I get home.. then using the money to get the corsa going ...bucket v2. And a start on baby bucket nova project
New bits im planning for the corsa
Verniers - 150
Cams (300+ degree) - 350
Head bits ( lifters, springs, platforms) - say 600 (havenˇ¦t decided on valves yet )
All fitting mapping sundries - erm 2k?
Say budget 3.5k to get her up and running
Then some
LEDA susp - 800 or so
Exhaust manifold - ??
THEN
Buy an old nova shell, rolling shell or complete car for feck all.
Fit my old c20xe from the bucket v1 to it .. fit the old corsa coilovers.. (they should fit .. ja?). Strip the car. Cage it.
The above nova may be a co-owned project between 2 or 3 folk. So not much expense esp if its scabbing off the corsa parts bin.
Then get both cars painted in similar but contrasting colours .. i.e same colours, but oppostite patterns.
Then race em 
OR
Or keep the skyline and take my time (im good at that) on the corsa/nova front? After all I have all the following waiting to be done to the skyline
FMIC
New fuel pump and regulator
GTR spoiler and GTR grill
Then get the exhaust side sorted and a boost controllerˇK that should see 300 RWHP at around 0.9bar
Och I dunno.. too many things to think about Marge could take up all my free time if I let her. Nig nig ng neee pakora
Fuck. I need my own mechanic 
Punto - all that needs now is a SEB chip really then im happy to leave it be.
Thoughts??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Im in two minds.....
I like the skyline..... but i liked the corsa.....
I think it would be sensible to just wait a few months.... keep the skyline as a daily and just take the corsa step by step.... instead of buying stuff for the punto and skyline left right and centre
