1.4 16v 5 Door GLS 29th October

Post by SeibelR »

Okay, So i have myself a 5 door 1.4 16v ecotec

Corsa B in a dark blue/purple colour.

The idea is to add subtle modifications to give the car a sleeker look.

I have bought a set of 3 spoke alloys, they are in the shop being resprayed in white.

I have added a pipercross induction and plan to add a cold air feed.

Also looking into exhausts and i have been offered a remus centre section with Magnex rear box.

i know quite a few of you like the cherry bomb exhaust.. So what would you advise is best ?

Car's just had new rear bearings & hubs.

Not going to get them much cheaper than them
If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway :thumbs:

Car has hit 113,000 miles.

Just done an oil filter & oil change.

Car failed MOT on emmisions, so looks like a new exhaust system & cat is needed.
