    Sure, we dont have to worry about viking raids or scurvy anymore, but instead we make a daily routine of sitting in flimsy, fibreglass (or metal) boxes full of gasoline which are propelled in opposing directions on the freeway at velocities matching that of low flying aircraft.

    This is a roundabout way of saying that cars are dangerous....

    For the Corsa my mods will depend on the career path I take during 2010. If I continue on my low income and decide to keep the car I'm going to look into a few more performance mods such as:

    • custom extractors
    • custom intake plenum
    • reprofiled cams
    • lightend flywheel
    • stronger clutch
    • block EGR valve (possible job for matt?)
    • Vxmmi headunit
    • and whatever else I have money for.

    Good thread this one adz - also how come I don't see an F25 or 28 Manual box on that list? You know where to get them now eh - might be worth checking out the Saab wreckers in Oakleigh.

    Vectra
    -Sell it
    -Sell the parts I bought for it but never fitted (refer FS section lol)

    Saab (B258i V6 (c25xe))
    -G Intake Cams
    -Remap (have to get my OBD interface to work first)
    -Machined throttle and intake (I'll let you know how much it costs lol)
    -Low Pressure Turbo from the 3.0 9-5 (if I can find one for sale)
    -Hydraulic Clutch (or I could man up and stick with the cable one)
    -3.6 or 4bar fpr
    -Eibachs, Boge shocks for the rear (already on the fronts)
    -900 Aero 3 Spoke Classic Rims
    -Viggen body kit and tailgate spoiler (also hard to find)
    -Leather (easy to obtain considering saab appears to have used the same seat design since the '80s)
    -SCC
    -Saab equivalent of the VXMMI

    Yeah modding cars is so much easier when you have a full time job

    On my list:

    True CAI set up through foglight (pending on how brave i go in terms of drilling the car's body)
    Whiteline rear sway
    Whiteline rear shim kit
    Whiteline caster kit
    New pads (when these go completely)
    2.25'' catback

    Tidy up calipers (black)
    Paint front chrome bar (looking for donor grill still)
    ...

    If I'm bothered Click here to enlarge Still enjoying the new sport contact 3 tyres so not inclined to mod it yet - the grip is stupid... I highly recommend Contis.

    "Forced induction" sounds like some sort of sexual assault.
