View Full Version : AW06's MK2 WIP
Yer, i think its less rotten than yours though hehe
:cry::cry:
lol Yours will get there, have some patience unlike me lol
Orderd PAS pump (collecting thursday), PM'ed CK about a corsa servo and that should be sweet.
Car is coming off the road the 10th of jan (while im on holiday :D :cool: )
Think ive got most things sorted for the conversion, just need to buy a couple of things like brake pipe flarer and bender.
Should have another nova rack on the way too.
So next month, my bro and friends (You know who you are) will be ripping into my baby :cry:
Progress will be added by my bro :thumb:
good luck mate.
Aye need it. Lucky all ive got to do is buy the parts and make sure i havnt forgotten anything lol
Thanks to Kev16v (AGAIN! lol) I now own a 106 electric PAS pump.

missing the foam pad on the drivers mirror, my bad.. it flew out when i removed the mirrors, onto the floorpan with a fcukload of broken glass (prety much pitch black at the time too) and me rummaging around under the drivers seat picking up handfulls of glass saying " ahhh sh1t.. where is it "
Shut up taf im fitting the pas and you cant stop me :D
And that mirror? dont worry mate there usualy rubbish anyways, im going to replace it all with rubber, ive got to buy some for the rack anyways.
seeing as most people dont have much cash at xmas it seems i do lol
Bought a corsa brake setup and some other bits.
Corsa airbox etc, fits fine with a bit of moding.

Shouldnt the airbox be where the engine gets its air from? Not the split in the intake rubber hose!!

what did u do with your bodgejob horn
lol Taf its only temp untill next month, its a working bodge so what lol.
Airbox looks good in there.
Does your bonnet shut with that corsa washer bottle?
Ive got one for mine, but i couldn't get it sitting right. It would either touch the wiper linkage, or the bonnet hinge would hit it when shutting the bonnet

Washer bottle was a piece of piss, i had to put it half under the cover for the heater, mine is dead close to the hinge but its miles away from the wiper linkage lol
My lastest bargin. Not the best but only cost me a tenner.

Could have gone lower but i couldnt be arsed getting the jack out and the camber was so bad the top of the wheel it wouldnt sit inside the arch, and if it would go lower the wheel would have recked my wings.
My last update for the month, my brother will update using my account or his with progress of the pas/corsa brake setup etc.
Comments please.
Make sure my brother and bmw156 look after my car while im in australia.

Got to buy some bits but nothing bad. Still yet to rip off the cambelt cover. Going to fit a WR gearbox after a lot of umm and arrr'ing.
Should get the engine in friday providing i get the 5dr and brake lines sorted tomorrow.
Anyone know where the reducer is on the corsas for the rear brakes? Or a cheapy cheap adjustable one?
Happy days :p
Edit: Wrong acc and cba to change.
Looks good, get some decent alloys for funk sake!
Oh and a gsi front bumper colour coded with rear too. :)
OMG that engine lol
i swear im never picking up an engine again lol
bloody gearbox oil all over my rear carpet NOT GOOD but paul replaced it as soon as we got home good times.
tow rope held by paul all the way home to keep it in place LOL
was a funny trip. cheers paul for the fun.
best quote of the day. "yep its leaking" to the gear box oil. followed by fast movement to get it up right.

Well, so much for the engine being fitted today. Rain stopped that.
Did get half the brake lines sorted out, just got to make 2 more lines and fit the corsa servo etc.
Noticed the engine's flywheel end oil seal has gone so got to sort that. Might get done when its in the car and have the box off again. Simply so everything else can be sorted.
If anyone fancys giving a hand please do lol
Essex Kid
26-01-09, 06:27 PM
Massive thanks to martin again.
Replaced the flywheel seal (as it was shot and for piece of mind)
Engine is now in after a lot of farking about due to the engine not lining up right. A combo of my massive jack, smaller jack, martins medium jack and the scissor jack from the 5dr plus lots of kicking, swearing and moaning.
Rear engine mount isnt bolted up yet but il sort it tomorrow.
Alternator is hitting the chassis leg but hopfully will clear once the rear mount is up.

More work completed on the car today. Recived exhaust and fuel pump today too.
Engine is now in, car is now rolling but need to get some nuts and bolts for things ive lost :tard:
1.6 Rad is in, lower arms, tie bars and driveshafts are all connected. Exhaust is sat in place but il bolt it all up tomorrow with a genuine gasket. Got the pedals back in, and gearstick out so i could cut it for 5th gear. Old spi fuel pump out and new one sat in place (Il bolt it up tomorrow). New alternator belt on.

Reason for putting it on is so the choice can be made. Steels or 3spokes.
3 spokes, keep the classic look
Essex Kid
04-02-09, 05:51 PM
Yer im waiting for the boss man to say yay or nay. IMO 3spokes.
3 spokes ftw, slighty biased:P
Neither, Alex needs some proper wheels.
lol Leave me alone homo.
I think il stick with the 3spokes. Dont like the steels enough. But Gay (sorry had to be done) find me some cheap wheels and il happly change.
Cesaros, with centre caps and bolts, without tyres £80
Astra gte teardrops ftw, or some nice 15's
Give me your wheels homo.
£80 without tyres, £180 with. :)
Woop, price drop. Il swap you my bird.

06-02-09, 09:35 PM

STFU adam. I rules!
Joycey - give me £40 and il keep them. lol
After not getting replys from people, no ECU or fuel pipes :(
Kinda annoyed as i planned to have it running by now. :roll:
All the wiring is done (Dod if you read this catch me on MSN) which wasnt as bad as i thought. Fuel pump etc is done. Just the final few parts that are holding me back (ECU, fuel hose to engine and rad pipes).
If anyone local knows somone breaking a corsa PM me.
TBH its got me down atm, was going so well before :mad:
the engine the eco out of a sport corsa???
if so i know the local scrappy has one in but not sure whats left
Has to have the ECU, keychip and the transponder from around the barrel. Hence why i havnt been searching the scrappys, as most of them dont have the key :(
Saw one earlier, but had the engine removed, and the ECU was there, just not the key :( Even when i asked they said that they didnt have it :(
But if the fuel lines are there (Engine connections to wherever they connect on the lines on the corsa) i might be intersted in them if i havnt found any tomorrow.
ill give them a phone tomorrow for you mate :thumb:

Good work :thumb:
I got mine running for the first time the other night. It's a buzz when you here them fire up :D
Mine is also just running for about 5 seconds and keeps cutting out. Doing my head in.
Keep at it mate. I know I am :thumb:
Do you know why yours does it? My brother reckoned it was to do with the keychip missing?
Southie
19-02-09, 06:58 PM
Not sure why mine is doing it!!! :confused: Thing is with mine it's a C16xe so doesn't need the chip for it. I've got my mate looking at the car at the weekend to help out with the ECU flash codes, so I can sort it.
I have a feeling though it could be something to do with an air leak, as I have change the crank and tps sensors, got a new pumps/fuel lines and fuel pump relay is working okay.
Whats yours doing???
Well mine starts fine.
But the fuel pump cuts out and the car just dies. No ECU light yet so havnt checked that.
I havnt got the lamba sensor done but as yours is having the same problems i doubt its that on mine? as C16XE's dont have lamba's because they have the airflow meter?
Wiring is all correct on mine. Did think that it was the fuel pump relay, but we by passed that and it still did the same. Still yet to check everything.
Got me a bit confused too lol
Southie
19-02-09, 07:08 PM
May be you need your lamba sensor connecting and I need a new airflow meter then :thumb:
I was so lol :cool: :D then :eek: :wtf: :cry:
If you find out what your ends up being please PM me. Obviously if I suss out why mine is being an ass then I will contact you :D
Yer lol
I realised after ages of cranking that the HT leads were around the wrong way and that the fuel pipes were on backwards too lol
Once it started i was so excited, and then it cut out :cry:
Yer if i find out what it is il let ye know. I doubt its the lamba sensor on mine tho, afaik they only come on once the engine is warm, but atm the car dont even know that due to no rad hoses :roll:
Meh
Southie
19-02-09, 07:15 PM
I realised fuel pipes were on backwards too lol

Mine was the same as above lol
Becareful you don't cook the engine though with no radiator pipes on. Obviously :thumb:
Yer, at least the cutting out saved me turning the key off lol
List of things to BUY:
Rad fan
Heater matrix hoses
Exhaust centre section
EGR Valve
Lamba sensor

Wots the fan out of?
Found out my probs thanks to adam.
Turns out it was the imobliser. Now looking for a X14XE ECU.
I have started it a couple of times since i found out about the ECU. It sounds so cool!
Looking good mate.
Does that bonnet shut with that corsa airbox fitted?
Yer it does, you havnt seen the amount of cutting i had to do tho lol, at least IMO it looks better than cone filter.
http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh30/AW_06/HPIM1379.jpg
Looks bad, and its held in place by cable ties but it works. And its not so bad.
Well today i did a bit more work.
The old 1.2 spi engine loom has gone, just need to find a use for the left over Ign lives and perm lives.
apart from that i put the front end back together again, but im going to rip it apart again tomorrow lol final few jobs to do, exhaust is nearly sorted just need to cut of the flange off the old exhaust and then bodging it!
Just a couple of pics i got.
http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh30/AW_06/HPIM1467.jpg
http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh30/AW_06/HPIM1468.jpg
^Proof that a baby xe dont weigh much more, if any than a 1.2. Still standard suspensiion untill i aucaly get the thing finished.
Getting there.
Wouldnt it be better just to fit an airbox from a nova sri as the one you have cut up will just let the filter wet which aint going to be to good.
I want one, but they dont come up offen and when they do they sell for **** loads. and its no worse than a drilled airbox.
/me loves it when emails come from png lol
Nope, im waiting on a reply from CK about a master cylinder and im still trying to find the correct ECU.
Cant do much else, ive made up the EGR valve plate but yet to fit.
meh
Well once again im updating without the engine running!
Today i pushed ahead with redoing the underseal in the arch/surrounding area.
Started off by looking like a very normal but dirty arch
http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh30/AW_06/HPIM1510.jpg
I picked up my tool of choice (Ignore the saftey bit, its not removable)
http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh30/AW_06/HPIM1511.jpg
A few mins later:
http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh30/AW_06/HPIM1512.jpg
Where i realised i had holes!! Only a couple of small ones though, but enough to make me want to remove the wing
Hmmm Brown!
http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh30/AW_06/HPIM1513.jpg

30-03-09, 12:59 AM
Should of sprayed it imo
That would have cost. Im skint :(
Its nice and thick at the front, its only at the back i didnt do it so thick, because its under the inlet. When i get a powerbox il prob paint it black.
I plan to have my whole car/bay blue/black theme. Teh top inlet i was going to polish, decided to do it black now.

30-03-09, 01:33 PM
Tesco value buns FTW lol
It should look pretty good with the blue black theme but don't go OTT with it in the engine bay. May look a little overkill :D
You better not be finished before me you :wisewood:
I just drove it!
3feet
Il get some pics up later of the bay, although its still a mess! Im hoping my exhaust will come tomorrow and then i can crack on with driving it!
Im just about to start putting the dash in, pain in the **** cos ive got to clear it all out first.
Happy days i think lol
thanks god you finally have it working. about time ya did, so much for having it done in those few weeks.
only took 3 months lol
If it hadnt been for the ECU probs it would have been finished by now.

Seems to sit lower at the front now.... Hmmmm
Dash is mostly back in. Need to sort some things. Ignore the mess lol
http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh30/AW_06/HPIM1562.jpg
Fitted my new rocker.
http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh30/AW_06/HPIM1563.jpg
Ive got to sort more things in the bay, brakes are a biggy. Other things like one of the TB water hoses
http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh30/AW_06/HPIM1564.jpg
Oh and my bodge of today.
http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh30/AW_06/HPIM1565.jpg
I did move it back under its own power, but its really down on power and missing like ****. I need to find some plugs and leads.
Woop
Take the bonnet badge off and the gsi grill badge
GSI badge is staying. Bonnet badge will be gone when i get my new bonnet sprayed.
****ing hate it when it looks empty. Same with the sides of the car. Which is the reason i dont like your no repeaters.
tbh the front end looks good, not sure on the two different blues under the hood
and whats that bit of metal by the exhaust manifold?? your bodge?
The rocker is the same colour as the brakes so meh.
I know its darker then miami blue, but never going to get the same colour.
The thing ive been waiting for!
http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh30/AW_06/HPIM1568.jpg
Bybye bodge
http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh30/AW_06/HPIM1569.jpg
AHH COCK! Left being what i had bodged and fitted fine, right being the new centre :(
http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh30/AW_06/HPIM1570.jpg
http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh30/AW_06/HPIM1571.jpg
How they should be.
Ive bodged it for now, but im going to have to find a SR downpipe (problery easyer), change the exhaust or just bend the new bit so it fits better.
Not sure what to do yet.
Plus the car is out of fuel, getting fuel soon.
Meh
Filling it with feel makes one hell of a differance! lol No more missing and a better idle for some reason lol
I put a bit more of the dash in, il have to rip some off it out so i can fit the speedo cable.
http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh30/AW_06/HPIM1574.jpg
I picked up a engine cover and a oil filler cap, also refitted my strut brace.
http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh30/AW_06/HPIM1575.jpg
Im going to repaint the cover with miami blue. Leaving the black bit.
The exhaust i need to tweak lol

Hope its still jacked up in them pics...
Engine sounds good.

whats the score with all the exhaust bodgery ?
it got a full working system on it now ?
I ****ING LOVE IT!
Exhaust blows, fan is running all the time, exhaust is knocking the underside of the car somwhere, no speedo, grips holding the brake servo hose so i can acualy have brakes. BUT I LOVE IT
It deffo feels quick, but i cant tell.
Still got shed loads to sort but its all small things that i can sort out at a later date. Makes it drivable for now.
Can even select every gear. And i didnt even set it up!

I think im going to have fun with the inner bit, which i plan to do the outside and then cut a bit of the repair panel leftovers and bend it to shape.
http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh30/AW_06/HPIM1612.jpg
And finaly one of the car as im a pic whore :p
http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh30/AW_06/HPIM1614.jpg
Im just having a cream egg and then il go back outside and get it all welded up and sprayed (in primer untill the weather is better) but il problery strip it all back when i do the topcoat.
Hopefully it will turn out alright.
That repair looks alright mate, is it an actual repair panel you cut it from or did you fabricate that bit yourself?
Proper repair panel cut. I also used another bit of it to make the rear section.
Ive finished it now, im going to cover the inside with undersealer and paint the outside.
A job for tomorrow.
Like i was saying earlier, i needed to finish it. Now i have, although no during pics. I need to give it a skim of filler and take the paint back again (only paint i had around was miami blue, just while i took a trip to get some primer.

12-04-09, 10:16 AM
looks good this pal,keep up the good work:thumb:
If all the bits had been together before the engine went in then it would of been a quick project (i think).
I think im going to be removing the sump and doing that gasket when it turns up. And if that isnt the source of the leak il be ripping out the engine and box again.
In thery it should be a 1day job to get it out and back in. Meh
And NBC, i cant eather lol
Now my arches are finished i decided to crack on with the skirts!
Firstly i tested them on both sides (didnt get a pic of passnger side)
http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh30/AW_06/HPIM1620.jpg
http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh30/AW_06/HPIM1621.jpg
Then after treating them with black stuff. I tried to fit the passenger side errr.
http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh30/AW_06/HPIM1622.jpg
I got that bit in place but the glue ****e seems to take forever to set. So ive left it a while and intend to inspect soon.
Just a couple of pics to show off the finished arches.

Skirts look good, exhaust is... Shocking.
lol Exhaust will be sorted soon....
I havnt checked the glue yet. And yer, im planning on redoing them Matt black. The bumpers, mirrors (not the currently body colourd bit) and other small items.
Cooltiger lied.... kinda. I think ive sorted one. Going to look at it next weekend.
What colour you going for?...
Looks like your missing some gearbox bolts there

13-04-09, 10:21 PM
good work on the engine removal :thumb:
and im gessing that the skirts dint stick as there not on in the pics lol
It was easy :D And 3spokes are more man than your stupid wheels.
And like i said, i wasnt happy with the skirts, they moved too much and stick out from the car! So basicly didnt stick.
Meh
So yesterday i started by ripping off the gearbox, checking the clutch (still fine) and popping off the flywheel to find this:
http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh30/AW_06/HPIM1642.jpg
Cleaned it all up, and put everything back inc the box.
http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh30/AW_06/HPIM1646.jpg
Then slid the engine under the raised car and left it overnight.
http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh30/AW_06/HPIM1647.jpg
Bit low i think
http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh30/AW_06/HPIM1648.jpg
This this afternoon i got it fitted without using a hoist as i couldnt be arsed waititng around.
http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh30/AW_06/HPIM1649.jpg
Im off to finish putting things back on soon, but im knackerd lol
Well happy :D Even though im planning on selling, and may have sold it to a mate
Sold it for how much £800?
Why would you want to sell it? You havent even finished it lol

Flywheel bolts are strech bolts and must be replace everytime they arnt taken out.
Jay - 1k
Steve - Its preety much finished. Ive sorted all the little problems now. Meh
Cooltiger - STFU ;)
Benn - O well i was told (coming from a guy who does this sort of thing for a living) That as long as there not buggerd and there coverd in locktight then not to worry.
Bit late now anyways. My gearbox hasnt got a acess plate.
Southie
21-04-09, 02:13 PM
Is this sold yet or have you kept it :D ;)
Even though im thinking of selling ive got to keep myself busy and try and get the little things done.
After yesterdays drive finding out how rubbish the suspension is, i had to do somthing, so while i wait for my coilovers top spring seats i thought i would throw on my lowering springs. I was under the inpression they were 40, but im now thinking 60?
http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh30/AW_06/HPIM1658.jpg
This is the cars bad side.... Dents, rust and the only 3spoke without a centre cap :(
http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh30/AW_06/HPIM1659.jpg
Any idea how low you think it is?
lol NBC...... I was soooo much quicker then you lol
Southie
21-04-09, 02:29 PM
Looks like its about 50mm drop at the front :D
60 mm I reckon. One thing I don't understand with alot of projects is people finish them then sell them!?
Isnt the idea of building a car the way you want it, is so YOU can enjoy it!? lol
I think its 60 too, bearing in mind it will settle a bit.
Steve - I dont enjoy it thats the point, seeing as its ment to be my daily driver..... I never built this car to sell it, and didnt intend in selling once completed. But now ive driven it a bit and had all the problems, every drive is more a fault finding mission...
And speaking of faults, i tried to take it for a drive..... I got about half a mile :( Thing died on a roundabout and had to push it (with the help of a nice builder) and it wouldnt start again. Been down my mates workshop and couldnt find the fault, had to trailer it home :(
****ing car.
Looks much better dude.
Not good on it dieing tho...
:D Ty benn.
Well, sorted the starting problem by changing the starter for a borrowed one. Mine worked fine on the bench so il clean it up and put it back on.
But the stalling problem is still there, it seems to have a slight rattle too, and a weird whine on idle... Meh :(
The stalling is weird, as if you come up to a roundabout for instance and brake hard without locking the wheels ofc, clutching right all that crap, im not a driving newbie lol, it will just slowly die, a couple of times ive saved it by letting the clutch up and keeping it running, or holding up the revs.
Going to flash the codes tomorrow, but didnt have a ecu light come on.
Oh and nearly forgot. This pic is my new fav.

Did you fit the speed transducer to the gearbox. If not then this is why it's stalling fella.
Mine will be my daily driver soon but I will just get the aa out if it breaks lol
Speed sensor is connected, hence why i thought it was werid the speedo worked. All the electrical **** is connected.
Im going to play around with it tomorrow, but i had to build a mr2 this evening.
A common fault with vaux engines stalling at junctions is loads of crap in the throttle body isnt it? Or something along those lines.

What make of strut brace is that you've got? Are you selling/ breaking the car now?
No idea matey, seen lots of novas with it, i got it for a tenner and no bugger all about it.
And if i get the right price il sell, otherwise il keep it. Deffo dont want to break it.

Back on topic, when you say it cuts out on roundabouts is that when its cold/hot or both?
