cheeRS stu

 

aaaah
it was "luckyb" i knew. Patty wasnt it? Did he build it Stu? He your mate? I knew him when he had a moonstone saff before the corsa.

 

Yeah... Mr D. Patterson. seen him at a few hill climb events.

I've seen that corsa see off a 3.0 twin turbo supra (auto) at the crail 1/4 mile strip before.

Its a legend.

 

not adam kindess's supra was it

TTT again for a quality car though

 

Yeah. It was actually.

Just out of interest... has anyone here heard of Graeme Wight Jnr.

 

Chop the guy who built it is roy cook from arbroath,he has built many a quick corsa/nova valver in his day,the engine in this corsa was origonaly built by swindon engineering who did a lot of the vauxhaull btcc stuff in the 90's

cheeRS stu

 

cheers stu

 

He used to come up to Aberdeen back in the day. In a red nova wasnt quite quick enought tho

Nice corsas, will scare the bee jesus out of one luck punter.

 

thats well sweet nice lil sleeper with some quick times.shame my runabout corsa ent like that

 

bump for such a nice corsa

 

Believe the corsa is now going for £4000 without the private plate on it.

 

Isnt it yours?!..........

 

You say the timing belt was done 1500 miles ago, what were the cams set up to? Has it been rolling roaded since then?

And, what cams are they? I'm assuming from the quoted power/torque you're running at least .445in lift/298deg??

Also, the MBE management - are we talking 956e? Or later generation 967++?

Cheers.

 

stunning car, TTT for you mate,

MB.

 

Ben-do believe the cams and the management system is the same that michael knight fitted to kitt in knightrider !

 

bump
