What are these like 0-60, 1/4 mile e.t.c.
Any down sides to them? A mate had one a couple of years back but I didn't take too much interest at the time
Think his was a R reg with the headlights that are big and round!!

Good, good good, cars my mates got one the b16a engine is legendary imo.
Nice drive day to day and rather quick when u want them to be.
do 1/4 mile in 15's I think 60 is about late 6's maybe 7 secs.

i think they're great.
i had this coupe vti for half a year and loved it.
b16a is a fantastic engine IMO. couldn't fault it at all.


my only gripe is that to modify one properly is very expensive.

I raced one just like that in red but it was the 1.8 sporty version, was right on my ass at 135, I was rather impressed

1.8 are a little heavier, than the 1.6.
but yeah, as mentioned expensive to tune properly.

the 1.6 vti is a nice car! Mate has one with the wings west kit,
However he always gets raped by a nova with a standard xe!
Stay away from 5 turbo's unless you have a huge checkbook!
Drop a 2ltr in the corsa, will be cheaper to insure
