LordLorenzo 😂 thanks my Lord! I definitely need much better equipment before I can take them on, have a good line up of cars to review in the next few weeks - should have some great videos coming! 👌🏻
@@wosa9461 tuned car reviews are great, its how I decide what car I'm getting next haha no serious tho they generate some views them boys. More stuff like that is welcome for me and many others I would think. Hope the S3 is all good.
LordLorenzo Yup! Same, I can watch car reviews all night - always intended to do car reviews on this channel, I’ve got myself around all the local meets and forums now so people are starting to message me to come on 👌🏻 S3 is running great! I’ve some big news coming in the next few weeks 💪🏻🔥🔥🔥
@@wosa9461 👌 mines in garage next week , haldex not working replaced pump still not working. My guy reckons its haldex clutch so we will see, just can't get traction in damp at all, 300bhp going to front wheels if you floor it I suppose so no wonder.
LordLorenzo so common this! See it all the time, there’s a module or something in the gearbox that is sometimes the cause of this if it still isn’t working - I’ve seen people replace everything including the haldex module and it’s still not worked, apparently it’s come down to this chipset or module housed in the gearbox
A conversion I'm looking into but perhaps not quite so bonkers - I'd be happy just to have 210hp. Question: What gearbox has he used? The F23 (reliable and ubiquitous that is) it just won't cut the mustard. If he's used M32 or F40 box, did he have to modify the gearbox mounts, use off the shelf parts or are they they originals? Fascinating stuff.
He used the F23 gearbox, has stood up well to that power tbh - he’s had this for quite a while now, unfortunately he has now sold this - to the guy in the comments above (or below if you’re on a desktop)
@@wosa9461 The power isn't really the problem tbh, the torque is the main concern as the F23 is rated to 230N•m max serviceable torque. Now, of course, that doesn't mean it can't be used, however it does give the 'box a good hammering though. Great vid though Wosa, its giving me ideas on what I could do with a Corsa C conversion. I like their (relative) simplicity as a car for the period. 👍👍
Its the Corsa SRI diesel box, a few different models of this gearbox, but this diesel gearbox can handle the torque better than other similar boxes, dont use M32 box as they are chocolate, always been a weak point of the VXRs
Fair play that's quick and that road you went in by Airbus I pass threw their nearly all the time it's a great road just gotta watch for the knobs on a bike 😂
Wosa Yeah I’ll be 19 with 300hp under my foot can’t wait😂 Great vid first one I’ve seen with decent quality on a Z20 Corsa C! Will be satisfying leaving cocky drivers to dusy
Depends on how much you can find an engine - but the swap is not too difficult, Dave who owned this is a mechanic so did most of the work himself, but I’d imagine including and engine you’d be looking at circa £3-4k
There’s another Corsa I filmed with the 1.8 Sri engine turbo’d that would be easier to fit than the Z20 - but obviously a lot of work converting it to turbo, ideally needs a built engine
So much love ❤ its sad that people think opels are bad cars but they beautys are more better and stronger then new cars
Proper sleeper, love it! Wouldn't mind building one myself
Sound of that thing is monsterous!! great video again Wosa :)
Thanks Spooler! Really enjoyed making this one - mental car!
I think this was my car 13yrs ago 298bhp GSI seats , goes off the clock at 140, took to 170 ish , beats all kinds
Sweet little sleeper, the power/weight ratio is pretty nuts! Thanks for sharing :)
Thanks for watching! Shocking little thing!
I've just bought this car, it's an absolute animal👌
Awesome! Was talking to Dave before and wondering who got it, enjoy mate! And enjoy watching people’s faces as you sail past their lovely new M4 🤣🤣🤣
@@wosa9461 hahaha yeah defo it left an RS3 on the bypass yesterday😂
Have you encountered any problems thinking if buying 1
Great video wosa. Now that was a little pocket rocket keep them coming 👍
Thanks Joe!
Nice one wosa..love a sleeper.power to weight is nuts..😎👊🏽.keep em coming dude..
Thanks Dude! I’ve another pocket rocket coming very soon 😎👍🏻
I had a corsa 04 reg that lasted 6 weeks. The brutal memories.
The Grumpy Brummie I guess you blew the engine with all that power! These things need a delicate foot don’t you know! 😂
Wosa yeah that’ll be it for sure 😅
The Grumpy Brummie 😂 I should open my own garage... and call it “Hindsight services - what you should have done”
Wosa have the signs for it past the turn for it.
The Grumpy Brummie 😂😂😂 we need to go in to business together....
Wanting to give LLF and Officially Gased a run for their money eh. Nice work man, crazy car. Look forward to seeing some more car reviews

best for beginners but an sleeper car,..... madddd
Got one at the minute f23 zaf box stiff gears just had full clutch kit doing my head in 😆 ow and a boost leak or maf map sensor issues all fun 😀
Cars hey? 🤣 you tried greasing down the gear linkages? Had a similar issue on a veccy VXR - smooth as butter now
@@wosa9461 yer top of gearbox and inside under gearstick could it be flywheel .or slave gone again 😒
Would love this car!! can't wait to get 1 gorgeous 😍 woza
Such a fun car!! Was awesome 👌🏻
I have one for sell exactly like that
Very common with b204s fitted running even higher numbers fancy doing one myself

Looking at getting a wee Corsa sxi for my first motor
Some people just want to watch the world burn... Crazy build that!!
😂😂😂 should of used that as the title!!
Fair play that's quick and that road you went in by Airbus I pass threw their nearly all the time it's a great road just gotta watch for the knobs on a bike 😂
Yes! Littered with cyclists on a sunny day 😩
@@wosa9461 tell me about it 😂 keep up the good content
Thanks Matey!
juat got one for myself, sxi+ 2006, silver one. love this car already, gonna built it :)
These used to be pretty common back in the day. Brilliant little things. Handle like poo tho hahah
Yup! They are quite precarious around corners… but then again, all Vauxhalls are!
Surprised nobody mentioned the classic rover in this video. 5:16
Can’t wait for mine next year! Will be a daily so I reckon I keep my rear seats😉😂
Jxk Broady ah mate! Jealous! They’re absolute weapons these things 😂 all those unsuspecting drivers... hehe
Wosa Yeah I’ll be 19 with 300hp under my foot can’t wait😂 Great vid first one I’ve seen with decent quality on a Z20 Corsa C! Will be satisfying leaving cocky drivers to dusy
Jxk Broady 😂😂😂 “No! It’s a 1.2 Mr Police officer...”
Wosa exactly😂
Jxk Broady thanks matey! I’ve some more very interesting Corsa’s coming up....
Do a reg check on this and it’s still registered as a 1.2 and isn’t taxed built on benefits special here lads
Maybe it’s sorn or being used as a track car currently ?
Quaife ATB will sort out some of the torque steer.
The car is up for sale now, not sure he will be doing anything else to it - but I can imagine that would make for a large improvement
0-60?
What's fuel economy like?
This is a question as I own a Corsa c and I'd like to know if I can swap the stock steering wheel for the Corsa b one ?
Not sure on corsa B wheels. But VXR and GSI wheels fit the C I know
I want one 😫 😩 😭
Whats ur ops on putting a vxr engine in this car ? Thinking of doing it
Great little build, so much fun! Puts the power down surprisingly well too
@@wosa9461 im thinking of doing it fot a project
Get it done! Fairly simple to do
@@wosa9461 u reckon?
Who built this car??
Friend of mine - owns UNA Performance
where did he buy the air filter from? also can you add links to most the stuff in the car
Pop him a message at UNA Performance via Facebook business - he makes the turbo kits for these
@@wosa9461 oh okay thank you very much i’ve just got a 2006 corsa and trying to us it as a project car
No probs my man - Dave his name is, knows his stuff!
@@wosa9461 okay thank you very much keep up the content!
Thanks matey! Good luck with the build 😎👍🏻
Why strip them out that little extra weight won't make a blind bit of difference with that sort of bhp
Still registered as a 1.2
It’s sold now - whoever owns it needs to address that (this wasn’t my vehicle btw)
How much does the engine swap cost?
Depends on how much you can find an engine - but the swap is not too difficult, Dave who owned this is a mechanic so did most of the work himself, but I’d imagine including and engine you’d be looking at circa £3-4k
@@wosa9461 ok thanks I have 2006 1.2 16v sri
There’s another Corsa I filmed with the 1.8 Sri engine turbo’d that would be easier to fit than the Z20 - but obviously a lot of work converting it to turbo, ideally needs a built engine
@@wosa9461 yh that would be easier
where’d you get the alloys from mate
and the front bumper
Not my car I’m afraid! I couldn’t tell you
@@wosa9461 Alright thanks
No probs 😎👍🏻
What zorst is fitted
3 inch Downpipe in to a full custom stainless with an imrscher double D backbox
@@wosa9461 sound's pretty good luv the pop's and bangs
1:25
Do good 2 add roll cage and turned into track car . Knock Hill. Ain't good on public roads .unless you have a Ticket fetishism BROOM BROOM BANG BANG
The guy who bought the car off me had intentions of using it on track, so it probably has been done
100ok
Wosa wots ya Instagram name 👍
Joe Scanlon @Woza_S3
Still registered as a 1.2 eh?😂🤣
That sounds horrible 🙈
