Just got this on Thursday and so far I love it.
'94 Corsa B SRi 1.4 8v
Lowered, peco back box, Cone air filter with heat shield. Stupid Laguna front splitter that will be getting removed! But the body work is unreal for a Corsa of this age, little or no rust at all!!

LOL!!! erm................... ok then, so that's what you were thinking and you still opened it?!? LOL!!
Ok, weapon is maybe a bit of a bad choice of word, but come on guys, they were fairly rapid in thier day, and lets face it, there aren't many factory built corsa's that will scare an M3 driver!!
Thanks for the nice comments though folks!!

Defo thinking of a high lift cam, not sure if I could be bothered with the hassle of removing the injection system and setting up webers.

Ignore all the sarky bastards mate, it's cool as fuck. Don't think I've ever seen a white SRi in that shape either but I'm not the most experienced.
The engine work that's been suggested is bang on imo, it's crying out for a new set of alloys too! If you're happy with it though mate enjoy it

Also forgot bang a four branch on. I think the old GTE/GSI Nova should fit and have bigger ports, and more compression.
Who cares if it won't beat a Impreza, or a M3, it's good cheap fun.

It defo is cheap fun mate!! Had a run at a TDI golf, not sure what bhp it was but lets just say he wasn't happy when he couldn't shake me LOL!!
But the noise from the induction kit and exhaust is pretty darn cool.
Yea, once I get a bit of money together a 4 branch, maybe a decat, a better induction kit with a cold feed.
Most of the work will be going into tidying her up, defo keeping the white bumpers Ian, so sorry mate LOL.... as for the rims, tough call, I think they suit the car, though I would love a set of speedlines!!! But just far too pricey imho

Not going all the way back, but the stupid splitter is gone already, two new rear wheel bearings and a lick of polish and some Meguiars Carnuba wax.
