corsaZ22se

joining the 1 of a kind registered engine conversions club with me then.
you beat me to doing a van although im thinking of a corsa van. 🙂

sad but I'm quite excited lol
a corsa van would be excellent. flame red parked next to mine both supercharged and your current corsage would be a legendary picture 🙂 would you do a corsa van or a combi? corsas are nicer I'm not a fan of the high roof on the combi unless it had a roof chop that would be cool

I had an idea of a rear engined rwd z22se supercharged astra estate lol ....

corsaZ22se

it would be a van not the combo.
but not flame pink again, takes to long to keep it red! 🙁
maybe white with john deere product support livery? honest its a 1.3cdti :whistle:
or an opel corsa bakkie/ute :cool:

5M1THY

Yeah I'm not a fan of the combo's and i will never own a red car again lol
that would be excellent with John deere decals I've always wanted to a vivaro or traffic with either John deere or kubota decals 🙂 an opel ute would be quality but with vauxhall badges to confuse everyone lol. my cars nearly done so the van will be off road very soon and I'm paying for the supercharger Friday after work 🙂

Dave_Gilbert

@[deleted] likes to be confused with his vauxhall. Hahahaha

milo

No confusion!! Just not following the herd and wanting to stand out 😉

5M1THY

tbh I can't be arsed with changing bumpers and grills etc at most ill get an opc rear bumper and I want arch spats to protect the arches as the 18s throw up stones other than that it's staying as it is lol

are you going to swap the tv out for it ? would be better than watching goldfinger/moonraker and only fools and horses crimbo special 🙂

5M1THY

Hell yeah haha I've got email and txt alerts on it's every movement lol the second it said awaiting payment I'm dropping whatever I'm doing and ringing them lol

Dave_Gilbert

When are you expecting completion?

5M1THY

Asap mate my renault is ready for it's mot it will pass regardless 🙂 I just need to chat my dad up to ignore the decat and emission test and ill start the van I'm still waiting for bits and I still need to send the ecu off and order more parts but I've got the money to do it so it's just as and when now tbh

Dave_Gilbert

Im hoping to be turboed up by march

Its just a case of getting the money together for the map now I think.

milo

I be last by the sounds off it rofl

Dave_Gilbert

Im sure you will get there, and I did say I was hopeing for march but it will probably march 2016 like carl said hahahaha

milo

Getting the parts etc not the issue. The issue is going to be getting to carls to get it all fitted. As of January I'm starting my new role as area manager and getting spare time for first 6 months going to be a stretch as i be doing a lot of travelling. So i be wanting to spend spare time with the missus.

Dave_Gilbert

She will be fine. Whats a weekend away, just say its a business trip

training for the new job role. Hahahaha

5M1THY

Turbo will be nice Dave I'm glad you sorted the parts out in the end I thought we were all going to have to go up and cause havoc lol

Milo you'll get there I know how you mean I was going to ask Carl to do it but a weekend away is abit much atm at least at my nans I can drop tools and go spend some home time then go back to it.. I'll give myself a month to do it so I don't have to rush.
Mines flashing up for it's 3k service now so that the inner tie end new rocker cover and front coilovers will keep me busy on Saturday lol

5M1THY

The charger should be at my nans tomorrow 🙂 I need to sort the van out before it goes on but I'm getting there 🙂
This weekends jobs are inner tie end
Front coilovers to be replaced new rocker cover and gasket 3k service new washer bottle pump move battery around and if I can get the welder working I need to spot weld a nut on the sub frame behind the ns wheel as It's spinning and I still have new bolts and bushes to fit. Then I need to find out what's knocking/rattling in the engine bay but I put money on it being the engine mount if so ill get a turboteknics one or whatever there called lol once all that's done it can go for it's mot in jan then the supercharging will start 🙂
