Smoke Grey Gsi

[Shaun]

Not a nova though lol...

I was planning to pick up a red gsi last weekend, but a few unexpected bills cropped up at home meant i couldnt stretch to what i was going to pay for it :(
Anyhow...
I spoke to a chap on here and arranged to pick up my new smoke grey gsi.. some of you may recognise it as Gav's old one...

Not 100% on my plans for it as of yet, but has a rebuilt x16xe with chipped Ecu with raised rev limit and a genuine Mantzel powerbox...

I do have a c20let sat here but quite like the car as it is, goes very well for a 1600 imo.
Anyways its in safe hands :cool:

Still have my nova shell here though as no one seems interested so might fit the let into this, and x16 into the nova

[ben doodar]

Very nice mate, I do like the corsa gsi's!

[vaughanmc]

Looks cool - Your wheeltrims fell off though ?

[dc1984]

looks really clean mate.

[Shaun]

wheeltrims vaughan?

[vaughanmc]

Aye looks like you've lost your wheeltrims or something mate or has some diddy painted the alloy wheels black ?

[davie_slim]

id love that, i miss my old gsi, been on pistonheads to see if i can find one one wanting to swop for a xe sport but theres just no standard gsi's in good condition that havent been xe'd

[Shaun]

lol

now i get you vaughan. they wont be that colour for too long.

unsure to fit my c20let, stay x16xe or go for a c20xe on tb's

[Southie]

Looks a very clean gsi IMO keep it as is and put the LET back in the nova lol

[Shaun]

if the nova doesnt sell southie, i will most probably source a c20xe for it then sell it

[vaughanmc]

I'd keep the GSi with the 1600 but that's my opinion, up to you what you do with the motor mate :) Not many 'standard' GSi Corsas about now

[Connor]

Let it, if you got it sitting there, it would be rude not too

[Plug]

dont forget about the gearbox mount on the nova thou.

Get the let in it :thumb: will swap stage 1 for your stage 3/3.5?? lol

[Shaun]

will swap and cash my way. let me know joe.

only want a nice 240 hp tbh

[Plug]

what phase you got ? and the corsa looks good get the rear lights changed thou :p

[Shaun]

i prefer the rears to standard lights...

phase 3.5 with power wheel

[vaughanmc]

They look like the optional Irmscher back lights ?

[Shaun]

There smoked Mhw's vaughan, exactly the same as the irmscher ones but without the I

[vaughanmc]

Ahh right, I'd never seen the MHW lights where you could see the colours through them...Only Irmscher ones I've seen are like that

[Plug]

arhh see i prefer standard rears Imo

Right so with this 3.5 what will i need to get myself?

[Shaun]

would get yourself a decent actuator and u need to up the fuelling.

Got a cossie regulator for that also ;)

[AlexW]

MHW's need keeping. The fronts are clear FK's are they not? Cool.

Other than engine stuffs, plans?

[Paul]

Love Corsa GSi's, only trouble is, they come with the worst alloys ever made from factory IMO

[Shaun]

just keep the car clean.

needs some vauxhall mats fitting along with a new set of gaitors.

also want to swap the airbag wheel for a early gsi wheel(when i can find one lol )

[Shaun]

lol @ paul

when i get some spare cash i shall invest in some speedlines i think

[Paul]

Buy mine!

[AlexW]

early gsi wheel(when i can find one lol )

Yeah im still looking for one too. Seem to be impossible to find :(

[Shaun]

the airbag wheel in a gsi sucks ass :(

[novalovingned]

Love a corsa gsi :) Looks clean enough too. Really want a gsi atm but already have 4 motors :( Will be keeping an eye on this thread!

[16v Nova Kev]

what colour is that as in whats the paint code. i like it

edit 96L found it.

[AlexW]

the airbag wheel in a gsi sucks ass :(

Get a late airbag wheel until you find a leather GSi.

Late leather wheels are leather too ofc!

[Shaun]

unsure if that would look out of place in a gsi though?

[MattBrown]

Yeah im still looking for one too. Seem to be impossible to find :(

Theres 3 or 4 sat at offplotslol

[Shaun]

Offplot has a pm! lol
