[Corsamitch]

Looks mint mate!

[bigron1988]

420 miles now, little prob with the fuel system has poped up now, the pump at times sounds like its pumping air so thought i must be running low on fuel, filled tank and still doing it , so thought maby swirl pot was empty, took the return of the swirl pot and put power to the pump and its full, so next port of call is to check the filter isnt blocked, if its not that then im stuck

[Corsa_LET]

Car looks feckin awesome mate! Nearly got to 500 eh? Lol cant wait to see this at shows. Btw, quick question...which brake servo are you using? Im looking to upgrade mine

[bigron1988]

[Corsa_LET]

Oh right, thought you'd be running a bigger one
