Yep, cant wait for trax! hopefully the weathers better than PVS

Cheers Mark, i managed to get the tyres fitted on monday eve then when i got back from work yesterday i set about sorting the suspension, adjusting the ride height & camber then tried the wheels on .. they sit much better with the wider lips
Rear end has been raised & teh front is wound right down with the helper springs in, no rubbing scrubbing or catching on speed bumps either.







Needs more work on the engine bay & want to change the back box too.
Hoses are metalic gold yep! matched the wheels & roof rails nicely

nice one danny, just an idea but if i was you i would get a straight through middle section to get rid of the huge middle box (done it on all my corsas) it gives you so much clearance underneath, and have a tiny silencer put inplace (pics in my garage under smoke grey sport) and have a standard backbox with the tip chopped off so its hidden

think it would look better aswell imo..

Wow good feedback Good to hear from you guys & i shall try and catch up with you all if your going to Trax

Mk4_boy: Thanks mate, yes that looks like a good set up & think i will have to go down that route for clearance & to tidy it up a bit. What was the noise like with that system? as i'm not looking for anything loud or OTT
I'd really like a different backbox so think hidden or something subtle will be the route to take.

well at first i had the cat and middle silencer removed and it was very raspy with a standard backbox, so i put a 3" backbox on it was stupidly loud, thats when i had one of there small powerflow silencers put in and it was fine, i would say it gave a nice rumble (was told by many it sounded nice anyway), then i would fit a standard backbox with the end chopped off, would make the rear look more smoothed as theres less going on..

also what about a semi smooth boot, and the towing eye cover smoothed in?

cant stand 5 door corsas, but yours is just smart, and could be alot better with a few changes imo

Charlton, thanks dude .. quite like the idea of a diesel style tailpipe.

Mk4_boy, yeah see what you mean. think i'm going to pop to a few exhaust places and get a few quotes on middle sections with the small type silencers and custom back box's. will either go for hidden or a real subtle stainless job .. but one that cant be seen a mile away

semi smooth boot is getting done yep, not sure if i'll have time to sort it before trax or not but i have everything here to sort it new painted bonnet will be on for trax aswell so it mean i can sell the bonnet bra
