After parting with my Calibra Turbo - i have been loving the Corsa GSi to bits the noise and even the power....
but the urge to mod is becoming to much - buying a house has meant ive purposely gone looking for a cheaper house so i can play with the Corsa 
The Corsa goes in on monday to have the rear wiper removed and filled - the rear door lock removed (im taking off the badges tonight) leaving the number plate recess as it is - got some total red clusters to pop on (so not loosing the standard look to much)
The Standard GSi kit is being rubbed down and resprayed, all smoothed off as well. Th standard GSi spolier is being moulded into the bootlid so it looks one piece.
So the car will in actual fact look totally stock to the untrained eye.
Got a smooth scuttle to put on with single wiper.
Got the colivers to go on.
Got the Porsche 944 Polished Turbo Rims with H & R adapeters to go on.
Then next year is definatly going to be engine and full leather (when funds allow!)
I cant not play with it

That car is exactly my style i simply love it and i dont care if people say it looks like that one ( no dig at you chap!)
Im doing it for me and i want to bulid my own.
Porker rims - no pics ive got to pic up the last two tonight see if i can get some pics on my phone because they have just been polished 
The rims are very similar to the design 90 rims on the grey corsa just thicker spokes slightly. Still 16" 8" wide at the back and 7" at the front.
Dump it on the coil overs - job done

I did spot a set of them but they went for silly money to.
Is that a 924? Or a 944? Looks like a 924S to me?
Dont know what year mine are or anything they guy i bought them off "thought" they were off a 944 Turbo - i try and get some pics later on.

928 - thats it.
i like them to - but as i say they went for silly money on Ebay.
I paid more for the adapter plates than i did the bloddy wheels -
