I am planning on opening a garage (as i am a window cleaner at the momment)

I have done or been involved (had friends help) which every bit off the car from respraying them to fitting the engines.
I hate giving work to other people as there is a chance the work will not come upto my standards......

Thats about all I can think of for now

[nightfever]

Well you're either brave or stupid but either way good on you! I'll not comment on the black one, but the white is great

[ZeeTacoe]

who is vauxhall sean?

[Frik]

Completely mad.

Love 'em.

[tybo]

You nutter !

They're great

[Holst]

Im not a big fan of corsas but they both look great

The white one is going to be mental if you get anywhere near your 450bhp target

I much prefer the more subtle kit on the white one. Enough so that you can see its a little different, but not silly.. where as infat its very silly

Please post back with updeates as you do them.

Remember seeing the black one in Total Vaux a while back, is awesome. White one is looking interesting. Does each respective engine drive the respective wheels (front:front, rear:rear) ?

[paulrandall]

Saw that Black Corsa in Total Vauxhall a few months back. Very nice!

[Logie]

Wow good job, also good to hear that the works being done by yourself. I've tried a few jobs myself but i dont have the experiance or a garage!

I was putting a VR6 into a MK2 Golf in the street so you can imagine the looks i got!

I bet it must be a nice supprise when people come up and say "Why do you have a V6 bade on your Corsa?" Then you pop the bonnet

[Conian]

A window cleaner.. and you can afford all those parts etc?
Gis a job.

very nice! How does it cope round corners with the big V6 up front?

ETA that manifold is a piece of art!

Hello Beardy

[sorrento205]

i remember reading your v6 project on corsasport a long time ago, i seem to recall plans to use a GM turbo manifold setup, any luck???

[samuelellis]

wow, they are cool

big engine, car that is as heavy as a tin can - cant beat it

[SpeedyGonzales]

Your mad! I usually don't like Vauxhalls, but those two do make me dribble

[Vox-All]

Thanks for all the comments.
The black V6 i did turbo using a SAAB/GM low compression unit BUT it poped the head gasket within 30mins as its was hard to cool the pistons which are farest away from the water pump. So i gave up on the V6 and started the twin engine.

[Dr G]

Suitably bonkers, very nice!

[blonde driver]

Awesome - not sure on the twin engine one.

But both Mega.

Pity in a Nova Body - but each to there own!

[Track_Cit]

The white car is absolutely mint...remember seeing a sneak pic of it in redline. The cage is pure sex!
