So I've just bought a calibra redtop with 71k on I'm fitting it in my corsa. Before I do so what could I do to the engine to get better power I'm going to have the cam belt changed just to be sure and maybe fit a cam kit to the engine ? What else can I do to it to make it really fast ?

Cams and headwork are really all you can do for serious power increases without opting for carbs or throttle bodies.

Cheers 4 plug scunny . If want head sorting let me no, but before major expense, theres: headwork, mild cams, decent ex system as stock mani is good for 200bhp ish. Arp rod bolts, superchip. After that throttle bodies + pocketed pistons with higher lift see about 200bhp
