Going on from what Ste L has said; Have you thought about putting a false floor in the rear? (that's if you aren't fitting rear seats).

I have done yeah. Not sure how much it would cost to do, although mdf is pretty cheap.
Sure i have a pic somewhere of a stripped out car with a false floor, looked pretty cool.

I will be picking up some gsi rear seats off Baxter at the png rolling road day anyways(he picked them up off novacabrio for me), so i'll see how i go with them fitted. Keeping them in for everyday use, and then stripping it bare again for pod/track days is looking the likely plan :)

I used to have a flase floor. I have a template at home for a floor in 2 pieces split down the middle. I tried many variations before finally going with this method. I got some 25mm x 25mm slats and created a frame for the false floor to sit on. I got some foam which I glued to the underside of the slats to stop them from vibrating on the chassis. I used 4' x 2' 9mm mdf to make the floor then covered them in black acoustic carpet. I used harnesses and cut out small slots in the false floor for the harness straps.

I will try and find some pics when I get a chance.

Nice job Ad.

Just a quick question. What Rad and top hose did you use?

Ok Jim, cool.

Bouch-Nova gsi/sri/gte rad, and the standard corsa top hose mate.

Right, have been spraying the dash parts this week, giving them a few days dry.
So finished work at dinner, and cracked on fitting the dash.
Switch panels removed, steering wheel off(nightmare job btw, ended up heating the boss up with a heatgun to make it expand, and it then slipped right off )

The excess wires are various things ive added, door lock switches, immobilisers, 16v ecu wiring etc etc.
All sorted now, wrapped into neat looms.
