    Ahh, the joys of owning multiple cars. You have the track car, then want to turn the daily into the track car and realise that before long you lose track of which one is the daily. Problem I had with the E30 was that I was spending more time and effort on the Corsa before realising that I had no time for the BMW and the money was better spent on dropping the Z20LET into the Corsa.

    Yep, I think that's basically what my Corsa is missing. Boost and maybe sportier suspension + more grip.

    Got a bright, shiny, yellow sticker for the front of the car!

    The massive black 'defective vehicle' really add to the character of it I think.

    Rear Sway Bar was too low (I KNEW it looked like it was sitting too low) and didn't pass their little stick with wheels test. Thankfully no fine and don't need to get it re-RWC'd, just have to take it to Vicroads to get it inspected.

    Pretty sick of it now and want it gone so bad Click here to enlarge

    I was going to ask the guy how come a sway bar counted but honestly I was happy to get away with no fine or anything.

    Still annoying as he'll though. Wish the guy who was interested the other day bought it and then it never would've happened. Jerk universe.

    It's minimum ground clearance from the lowest point of the vehicle, suspension, body, exhaust, doesn't matter.

    Washed, coated in Full Metal Jacket and tucked it away for the wet weekend in the garage!
