Corsa GSiiiiiiiiiii

Never thought I'd ever see the day where I'd like a Vauxhall Corsa!Yesterday I put my car in for a service, and got one of the technicians from the office to pick me up (n his Corsa). From the outside, it looks like a standard Corsa GSi, and the interior is just as shite looking, but then when he took it on to the dual carriage way and planted it.....ooft.2.0 16v C20XE "Red top" sitting under the bonnet with a set of throttle bodies, rolling roaded at 193bhp! Pulls like an absolute train and spins even going into 4th! Fully uprated suspension all round with front strut brace means it actually seems to take a corner too!Woooo, almost makes me want to buy one...but then I remember it's a Corsa :(Anyone know of any other similar large engine / small car conversions (apart from Novas)?What about an RS2000 engine in a Mk3 Fiesta?

That's a V10 innit (and a PowerStroke at that).

Only 300 bhp, but too much torque for this little island.

400 brake and 800 ft/lbs it'll make plenty enough for traffic light grand prix's in the Ka ;)

Ya but try applying all of that, you'll move the island rather than accelerate the Ka...
