GtiJames Posted June 15, 2011 Report Share Posted June 15, 2011 A mate of mines got a corsa C with an astra gsi engine with it but running various vxr parts (turbo, injectors etc I think) and that's running not far off 300bhp, goes like stink.

Steve TDI Posted June 16, 2011 Report Share Posted June 16, 2011 You still got that stripped corsa steve ??It got stripped some more, and then weighed in..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve TDI Posted June 16, 2011 Report Share Posted June 16, 2011 I dont even think there would be 50kg difference, probably closer to 30kg !!I have lifted / moved both engines (with a friend) and there don't feel like there was much in it.It was a guy on CorsaSport who was meant to have weighed them.

mini-man-dan Posted June 22, 2011 Report Share Posted June 22, 2011 I have a stripped Nova redtop, the most fun car I have ever driven. And being so light it is pretty damn fast! Not much came past me out on track last time. Infact down the straight I passed a 225bhp Leon cupra r on full chat. The engine is superb. It is very driveable yet when the loud pedal hits the floor it will embarrass many more expensive cars. A limited slip diff is recommended though. Wheelspin can get a little excessive at times.
