There is no doubt that those Mo's look so much better in 17's rather than 16's.

Love this thread

UPDATE:

18th June 2009

Its been a while so I thought I'd better update the car progress...

First up the Fabia...

Although the suspension is very good on the road (Koni FSD's & Eibach springs) It has always been far too high for my liking and rolls too much on track so im replacing it with Coilovers

FSD's







Coilovers will be fitted soon. These are now sold



I have purchased (or at least I will be soon) a set of second hand Cobra Suzuka's off a mate





The fabia required new tyres on the front and as the rims were starting to flake I decided to change the colour for something darker.... so off to the Powder Coaters they went





Tyre's will be fitted tomorrow.

Onto a new project.... A mate of mine (Kev) has brought a very clean and tidy Classic Scooby to do up as a track toy. As a result it'll be staying at the farm to be built. Here's the first pics....







Updates and planned mods on ^^^ soon!

Onto the Corsa....

For the first time in one & a half years she drove out of the shed tonight

See video below

Ready for some work...



And finally a little video of the Corsa Revving & flaming

Hello,

Sorry guys my PC's life expired a few months ago I haven't yet retrieved all the photo's off the harddrive yet to update the thread with (using my missus's laptop at the mo). Will do a massive update soon!

Egg is because my friends say Corsa's look Egg shaped, Raw Egg is the Corsa Van Turbo because its Raw... and Hardboiled for mine because.... well I don't know just sounded funny

Cheers,

Neil

UPDATE:

The silver Golf GT Tdi that was owned by neils missus is now in my hands since swapping with my astra coupe turbo some changes have been done.

R32 Golf wheels now dark grey (same colour as neils fabia wheels), lowered on coilovers, de-cat exhaust and shortly to be fitted Allard EGR removal pipe. Heres some pics, hopefully neil will update his cars as there has been some progress on the astra too

Does the Allard EGR delete pipe make much of a difference?

Hi mate, it doesn't make much if any noticable difference power wise. Its just means the system runs cleaner and if you change the breather so it vents to a catch tank or atmosphere....even better (My inlet manifold was coked up when I removed it before the Allard kit and breather but now its totally clean)
