thats fookin fast shame its such a shit car

rs_daz

That was def the best sleeper of the show today

Dan

Obviously it's not if it's running 11's!

Fair play to him cos that's fast! Especially fo FWD!

Christ that's rather brisk

Fair play to him

Fiddy

i dont like vauxhall's at all, but credit where credit's due, that thing shifts

jaiscossie

wonder what engine that has in it???

jr

iirc, sure chip does know exactley though

2.0 xe, standard bottom end
throttle bodies
n20 (cant remeber how much)

Benni

Very nice. Suprised he gets traction.

jr

just checked


218 bhp of gas and 150 shot

RobL

obviously not what? shit? its fast as fuck fair play but cmon look at it

timrud

If he had bought a car to just look good in he would be a hairdresser

That car is built with one thing in mind and it perfroms it to almost perfection, thats an awesome car in my mind

get to asda in quick ass time
fast but its still a corsa

jr

TBH i think people are missing the point, its designed to go quickley, how can it be bad thing

timrud

And a cossie is a Sierra or an Escort. End of the day neither of those are a luxary or prestege car. We (well a majority) just want to go fast. If I wanted Luxary or class, I'd buy a luxary car!

Coming from someone with an orion, oh the irony

Cool corsa. Timrud is it running slicks in that run? Once it gets ahead of the other car running it doesnt actually seem to gain much ground they seem fairly even after the initial acceleration.

timrud

Yes he has a plated diff, and I think a couple of different sets of slicks he uses

Its lightweight, has maximum grip and decent power (soon to be more I'm sure!)

89xr2

I'd like an xe powered faded purple corsa complete with faded black bumpers and a bolt on exhaust tip from halfords

RobL

lol i used to run about in a shitter corsa like that myself till i scrapped it,if i was daft enough drop a big engine and a bottle of nos in that it wouldnt of made it an awesome car in my mind just a fast shitter

James-W

XE's have wicked bottom ends a lot more can be acheived from them than thought

jr

yes i belive gaz is talking about loads more can be done, belive its running diff pistons now though, after the woodruff key broke off the old standard bottomend

Dan

Who cares what it looks like, it's not exactly a rust bucket with fibreglass hanging off it is it! It's built for performance, a proper sleeper, total respect to the bloke!

gaz`d

bit of wrong info but if you are interested we run

road cams hydrolic lifters
omega pistons
arp rod bolts
home ported head
throttle bodies
150 shot of nitrous
plate type diff
road legal drag radials
its mot`d and taxed
218 bhp off gas and runs very low 13s without
and thankyou for your nice comments

Dan

RobL

whatever floats your boat i suppose

jr

my fault gaz on that one, i was picking up on about 4th hand info

wingy

Thats a bit nippy.

top sleeper if you ask me yeah its a corsa but comon how many 500plus bhp cossies or big power rst's would do that 1/4 times not to many you just gotta love sleepers lol

r-s-turbo

i wish sum1 had a similar power ka to challenge it with! lol

Benni

Think they call it a sleeper mate.

RobL

never, like i said its shit and its fast as fook is that not what the general idea of a sleeper is?

Jemma

Saw it at Centrals.. one hell of a sleeper

I admit when i 1st saw it i was like whats that doing on the track... then after 11 seconds i ws eating my words

Tigran

Damn that is just so cool. Sleepers rock hard.

mellor

haha i hate corsas but thats just put it all into perspective with me... thats pretty much the coolest vauxhall ive seen in a looooong while

clearly im a ford man but those XE lumps are nuts, mate of mine is currently scratching his head while trying to cram on into a nova

any help would be good while im here, were lost
