Hi guys.
Im chris 23, iv been in the "jdm scene" since I passed my test and have recently got fed up of everything being over priced and over rated.
Most of my friends are into vauxhalls so it was natural progression I guess.
ANYWAY, my base is a 1996 1.2 8v skyblue corsa b.
Basic plan is keep it simple and reliable with as much track time as I can afford.
Light weight
C20xe
Bucket seats
Coilovers.
Track time

dash - I'd just gut the OE dash and leave, or remove completely and fit a AIM / Race2 type dash system.
