Good stuff mate, any news on my bonnet badge?
Hi Graeme,
Yes, on it's way to me as we speak, there was one part in back order so posting was delayed without notice and to be honest, I just forgot the chase the guy. Will send the badge over this weekend and latest on Monday. You should have it by mid next week.
I'll keep you posted mate.
Cheers,
Jeff
Thanks mate
do you guys not get indicaters on the front wings over there or just been welded up?
I think they changed the law mid 90's, but you're right no mandatory front side indicators on the Corsa A in NL.
That is correct sir - no side repeaters in the Netherlands on Nova's. Good to see it going in hibernation mate. Surely you have taken all necessary actions? Battery out, fresh brake fluid, fresh oil... the lot? ;-)
Cheers,
Niek
love the gsi in silk violet lovly colour i had 1 tll it got wrote off bad times good luck with yours
I'm biased, i will always think silkviolet is the best GSi color, it was was first nova, hum maybe i should sell the track car and get another GSi in SV??
Just won these babies on eBay.de, Irmscher 9 spoke 6Jx15 ET 42
Always been a fan of these wheels from the moment I spotted them on John Haslams valver. Something different compared to the more common Alessios and Softstars me thinks! Although I never spotted a Corsa A on Alessios on the continent before...

Will be using them as an extra set.
Just do it, you know it makes sense...Quote:

Would be interesting to see how they suit on the Nova.Quote:

I am in need of some centre caps for them if you know of any.:thumb:
Great project mate keep it up, you are lucky to be able to buy brand new GM parts.
Thanks guys, actually I bought them for € 42,50. They come with 4 Vredestein Snowtrac 2 tyres (2x 3mm & 2x 5mm). So I reckon it's a bargain... Tyres alone are worth € 50,00
I've requested a photoshop for the alloys on my GSi in the styling section.
My first Photoshop attempt:

looks good mate
but to be honest i like the original alloys a bit more
i'm abit old school
stu
Stu, these are additional. The original 3 spokes are first choice.
thats ok then
i have original 3 spokes with new michelin tyres and fully refurbed alloys (powder coated)
and a brand new set of 16" irmscher soft stars
I know mate, I have the original 3 spokes with new Dunlop SP Sport01 in 175/65 14 82H. Non-refurbed, because the alloys are like new as the former owner changed them for aftermarket ones. Thank god he swapped them back before selling the car to me. :d
I'll be using the Irmschers only for show/mood change/whatever.
Any luck on uploading new pics in your thread?
no luck with the photo's, to be honest havent tried again!
just got another nova project and a tigra just for the engine
i'll put a project thread up soon, don't know about photo's????????????
Get it sorted mate.
Looking good mate, i really like the irmscher "spoke" wheels i have always wanted a set for my sport, very nice
iain
Since the car is in hibernation I'll have to keep myself busy collecting parts for the rebuild! Plan is to rebuild the engine next spring and sort the engine bay while the engine is out. The rear quarters and full respray are planned for next winter.
I've collected a new genuine Opel O/S front wing yesterday (pics will follow) and sourced a mint GSI interior in the UK, will be picking that up at the end of November. So if some one wants me to bring over big parts from the continent to the UK please let me know!
Been busy cleaning the Irmscher center caps yesterday, the i logo was painted black...
