hi everyone, got offered this via facebook quite cheap so after a viewing a bought it. not owned it too long but it was mainly standard, did have lexus lights and a jap can but they were swiftly removed. 1.2 16v 90k engine

so far ive fitted softstars, spax rsx coilovers, 100mm springs on rear, smoked rear lights, fk clear depos on front, debadged grille, race tube, new cat, 2 wheel bearings, some ice, black cali leather and some 8k hids.

was going to leave it be but after a wee thought and a few txts some other parts where bought. gsi kit and some cav turbo alloys.










collect wheels thursday night.

so will need to start hunting for 5stud conversion bits. also a quick note that yes im 5studding a small block without changing shafts etc or welded shafts. just need meriva cdti/vxr hubs but going look into seeing if corsa c cdti 1.7 ones are same meriva ones proving difficult to get. also got vectra b v6 rear hubs/calipers/discs at college so wondering if i can use them

cheers for looking

so decided to give my x16xe a small tidy up for fitting into the corsa at some point. got it free for some leather seats and fitted it into my nova sri, running c26ce managment it would only turn over.... so a went n collected a new loom and ecu with chip and transpnder, bought new leads, new crank sensor, plugs, oil, oil filter, also replaced coilpack and a few other sensors and it eventually fired up! great feeling, now been removed to do some mods and paint etc

quick pic of nova





so now engine out, deffo thinking powerbox, 4branch, decat, raised rev limiter, 8v flywheel and sports clutch and see what its like after that



box is off now tho to change flywheel

also new back box



and a quick pic at college
