Hi.

This is my daily drive corsa-A 1.4i

First thing to do was to change the c14nz to a c16sei engine.
Fit breakes from astra gte 256X24, made the grove on discs att work.
4-1 manifold and a magnex back box.
Bilstein cup suspension. GTE seats and a MOMO seat. Wiechers 1/2 rollcage, REVO RFX 6x14 with winter tiers.

Will clean the car up and paint the bumpers in black, same with the GTE skirts I have.
I also have GSI clocks that will be mounted soon.

Some pics.

the cage is different... Guessing its just the rear so you can run passengers.

RFX's always get my vote :)

nice wagon man. bet its quick now with the 1600i.
should take the bump strips off the side, aswel as the opel badge on bonnet and get some mud flaps for the rear, would look beasty after that.
as youve got a cage, maybe strip the back end out and fit another bucket seat for the passenger.

The airflow is from c16sei engine.

Cant mount another bucket seat, have a 5year old son and he need too sit in a childseat.

The AFM looks identical to a 2.0 8v item?

The bump strip will go off.
I have wonder to fit sparco mud flaps, mabe that will be a bit overkill..
