anyone have any good pics of the std looking white gsi that was seen near our stand at billing this yr?
did it have std wheels on it ?
i so want to put std wheels on mine but would need to be able to keep some decent brakes , anyone know of a good setup that would fit aswell ?
At a guess Corsa Gsi stuff should fit
2.0 256mm brakes fit but need calipers shaving, else its a proper 4pot setup or the like.Quote:

thats they one , top man :thumb:
ive got a real soft spot for the std wheels ATM lol , but obv need to sort the brake issue
That one just needs some mudflaps and a GSi grill badge :)
lol corsa 256x20 doesnt fit , tried that a few years ago when it was a 1.6 , and dont fancy running a XE with them anyhow , im also not goin to grind any caliper down ,
so might need some proper make setups
get the grinder out unless you want to pay mega bucks for a 4 pot setup.
I ran cut down calipers on my nova. TBH there wasnt much taken off.
And DONT start a another argument about cut down calipers.
lol all ill say is thats its not for me,
Would spacers help the brake clearance problem???
not too sure ad when i tryed them it was the caliper hitting the inside diamter of the wheel ,
Probably not then
willwood do a 236 mm 4 pot kit that should fit yhey also do 256 mm but not sure they will fit rally designs stock bothe its were i got my 280s from and im well impressed loads better than v6 stuff
it would be pretty cool if you could get 15" 3 SPOKE REPLICASlol
Some 236mm 4pots would be good enough imo
cant see a 236 kit , but there is a 247x20 kit , that might just fit £302.50 plus pads and hoses
Might be worth an email to see if you can use 236mm discs instead, as all the kit is discs and calipers by the look of it
With you on this Riggy i think the standard wheels with the car slammed looks TOP:thumb:
You'll get some scary tyre roll on them with a c20xe in
Matt..
I'm certain someone fitted 256x20 brakes behind gsi rims. Uprated discs and pads in this guise would be good enough for an xe powered car imo.
^^ lol i set my corsa gsi items with red dots discs and pads on fire when it was still a 1.6 with rexy in the car , playing on the tops lol
well if you need any caliper measurments let us know mine are the dynalite 2 calipers like in that kit
Dude, just say no to Gsi rims.
lol benn you not think it would look ace slammed on the std rims

i like the softstars to be fair but its your car
What tyre profile are you going to run mate? IMO without running standard balloons, which will be sketchy in the corners and look crap you won't be able to get it low enough to fill the arches.
Could look cool if you manage it though. :)
