My ride...
hey guys i just thought i would come on here and show u guys what i have done with my car..
I currently drive a 2000 Opel Corsa Gsi.
Here is a picture of the side of the car before i changed the look of the front end
here is the pic of the new front end
Now i took out the 1600 8v motor and replaced that with a Daewoo Lanos 1600 16v motor and stuck an over grown hair dryer on that motor.
Here is a pic of my motor
Here is a pic of the dyno read out on the wheels

been talking with danny for a while, the engine was stock internals, only has arp rod bolts because of a raised limiter (7300), as he said he now changed the pistons after 2 years of pure bosst hahaha.
hes running an F18 and its still alive.

'88 Pontiac Lemans GTE - 2.0 16v XE - fully programable ECU, Custom made intake manifold and other bits.

that is correct... I ran stock internals on the car for 2 years before it broke an oil gland on the piston(thanks to the very poor tunning it got)
Then i replaced the stock pistons with Arias forged pistons and stuck in ARP rod bolts so that i could rev the car to 7300rpm
The gearbox is a F18 and i am using a 3 paddle sprung centre copper clutch. The std clutches would start slipping after about 2000kms
Anything else u guys wanna know about??

Fair enough on the bumper, i dont expect everyone to like it. Helps the car with cooling like u cant believe.mr_g wrote:Nice. We use opel engine, opel uses daewoo engines...
I don't like your bumper...
Yeah u see here in SA the 1600 motors that we got where all 8v, and at the time the Daewoo Lanos 16v motor is a copy of the Corsa motor just with a 16v head... So i used that.

There website is www.ariaspistons.com.
As for the clutch i never bought one, i took a std opel clutch plate and sent it in and asked them to make me a 3 paddle copper clutch with a sprung centre

On the car i am running an aftermarket management system made here locally. The problem was that when the car was taken for dyno tunning the car was tunned lean... Eventually after a couple months it detonated and broke the piston.jidasas wrote:Car looks hot! You said the tuning wasn't the best at first...what did you use to tune it...as I am just starting to build my turbo 1.6 lanos.

When i went to another dyno tuner he connected the laptop and turned around and asked me if i broke a motor. I replied yes and he said to me the tunning explains
