what is the exact parts u used as i might invest in some red tubing (and how much and where from (link me ) ) :D
90 degree 76mm bore corner and a 1 metre 63mm bore straight

lookin good P diddzy
thought you were lookin at a WRX?
I looked saw the service costs and intervels so looked else where
deano_sxi
19-12-2005, 18:08
you hardly drive your corsa though so the services will be few on the scooby
not worth spending that much and not driving a scooby is there
deano_sxi
19-12-2005, 18:12
true true
if you are gonna sell id do it soon as the new corsa will only drive the C prices down
good point, lots of cheap new cs on the market for a while, could keep it for 50 years and hope it becomes a classic.
that is the other option, time the vxr is out this will be all mine and paid off so may just keep it
