Just browsing through ebay thinking of a little project to mess around with and seen this
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/CORSA-C-2-0L-TURBO-Z20LEH-ASTRA-VXR-ENGINE-NO-RESERVE-/160576480083?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item25631aa353
Think when it is finished could make a nice little sleeper!

Thats the way I was looking at it. Keep the outside looking standard or poverty spec and have all the power under the bonnet.

Interesting but the ECU won't be cheap.

The corsa C z12xe ecu is the same as the astra G GSi ecu with a different map on so can be retained and just remaped by someone who knows what they are doing iirc
