no corsa apreciator but like this changes everitink. had one from new sold last year where my moms so i kept wen mechanic said not worth fix. did the engine 3 times.portugal is harder to have new stuff.
my friend had a polo with 500hp, and it was not fast (im not sure sleepser is the right word) it just went sideways when it got gas those light wieght cars often end up, outside the road in a crash with a long skid mark.. cause they have no weight to keep the car on the road and the power in the ground (that also goes for stopping power) i have driven 200m with the car skidding backwards, the cops did the mesurement, and that was a standard 206 that saw a bit of rain in a turn.. the car ended up in the busstop where the bus had just picked up people, i was not the driver
So clean. The way everything fits in that engine bay is perfect. Such attention to detail 👌 No compromise to the sleeper look either, even the interior. That pea shooter exhaust 😂🤣👍 That lad’s a genius.
This lad is no fool at all, some very clever work here, and omg that work in the engine bay is sooo tidy. You wouldnt even notice the intercooler, hes done that good of a job blending it into the bumper. I'm not not the racing or modding type but this work impressed the hell out of me.
Cracking sleeper, from the 1.0 badge to the exhaust to the 5 stud wheeltrims. I built a Metro GTi back in the day with a 1.8 VVC from an Elise. Made about 150bhp but was stripped out too. Can't imagine 300bhp in something a similar size. Awesome stuff
What a cracking little car! The cross breeding combinations some people come up with are class and sometimes a little left field, fair play to him 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I once put a BMW v8 (mb30) on a porches 924 transaxle in the middle of a mk4 civic, also put a scooby engine in a hillman imp using camper van transaxle, those were accomplishments I tell ya lol...
Seen my mate in his old 911 when I had my corsa b redtop. Hunted him down and he though he was getting chased by a scooby. Should have seen his face when I pulled up next to him. He couldn't believe he got done by a corsa 😂
Excellent, you should be proud of that! I’ve spent all my life building competition cars up to and including for factory teams at World Rally Championship level and your attention to detail is top notch. Take a bow fella, that’s top notch.
Absolute stunning build i really like the trick exhaust tailpipe what a great idea, a sleeper done right would never guess unless up close and paying attention.
I’d love to do something like this to a old semi rusty Honda wagon or hatchback Idk if I’d keep it FWD or use a AWD system from a Subaru or CRX. Of course the B234R is the best Saab motor for tuning, “old but gold” as they say.
Now that's how you do a Sleeper..! An Awesome build , attention to detail..looks like a regular car but within is hidden an absolute beast that would walk all over most cars ..That man is a legend, well done sir .. Respect..!
Makes me miss my old corsa sleeper... 1.0 shell cav 2.5v6 with 3l cams kept on drums with custom made coil overs when kW were a new company. Vercra c helper springs car was fun straight but hated corners still. Miss that beast
ngl the spinning is part of the fun though. I've ridden shotgun in a rwd car making about 400bhp at the time and it was kinda funny it would just light up the tyres on command.
Without doubt the best sleeper in the true sense, nice detail with the fake exhaust and standard interior / exterior. Very well put together and I'm not even a vauxhall but look forward to any updates on this car.
It's done with simplicity and knowledge, yet he kept the style all original. I love it! My sister had one and I loved driving it around :) A very cool 😎 car. I think adding the six-speed gearbox will be a perfect match for driving distance and for economy. Well done 👍
Belter that. Takes me back to 2002. 17 years old, cruising about in my mates corsa, 12" subs pumping haha. Didnt have 300bhp though but still had a laugh. Good times
The sound at the end is just on point. I own a Saab with the opel 2.2 TiD engine and I can confirm the turbo needs to be upgraded. This definitely inspired me to make little changes on my car. Awesome work
Man this car is a gem and the attention to sleeper detail is outstanding!! It doesn't help at all as the Corsa B was my first car as well, also did a X20XE conversion on it. Later sold it and such but I do miss it plenty.
That monster exhaust with the fake pea shooter hanging on the back is the best thing I've ever seen man absolutely fantastic conversion mate a true sleeper in every sense of the word👍😁
As someone who works on keeping Saab’s alive n well here in the US this is beyond amazing. A Saab engine swap is if not one of the rarest swaps ever. Fun thing there’s a gentleman here in Chicago that Saab red top swapped his 89 Volvo 760 Turbo.
Here in Sweden Saab engines has been swapped into everything, since they are cheap,easy to find and very easily tunable. Theres even a racing Corvette with one :)
This is incredible! By far one of the cleanest sleepers I've seen. A friend used to have a Corsa B with the 3-cylinder 1.0 in it, which we used to play around in. It was fun even without 300hp, so this thing must be awesome!
I've been fortunate enough to spend a few years living in the North East, (in Barnard Castle... if you know, you know 😏) and the lads I met there were salt of the earth. Geordies, Mackems, Boro boys, all great lads.
Didn't even know this was a thing tbh. If he drove past me I'd probably think "hoodlum!" but having watched the amount of work and love that's gone into converting the Corsa, I'm blown away, what an amazing achievement!
Brilliant conversion 👍🙂. You'd never know apart from the larger wheels. The Saab engine fits in so well. Surprised at just how much space there still is in the engine bay. A true sleeper.
This video came up in my recommendations, its not my usual cup of tea and I'll admit I clicked it thinking "Why the hell would anyone bother?". By the time I got to the end of the video I'd completely changed my mind. It would have been so easy to make it look tacky and awful, but instead its clean and tasteful. The passion and skill thats gone into this is obvious and the guy is super talented. Good on him! 👍
Now that fella is an engineer, love his attention to detail. There so many rough f*cks about on RUclips to see someone going to this much detail. Legend
Exelent build. 14 years ago, I had the Mexican 5 Dr version called " Swing" on the same blue color and it brings memories of me dreaming of turbocharging the little 1.6 or swapping a 3SGTE on it.
Nick seems like a lad who knows what he's doing with the spanners, I'd imagine a Corsa C steering column for the electric power steering wouldn't be too bad a job for him if he fancied it? Loving this sleeper though, even going to the trouble of trying to hide the intercooler... 😁
Amazing build!!! I had a Peugeot 106 1.4 4door and I put a 1.6 8v engine from Rallye with changed cam and Supersprint manifold (840kg with 115hp, 0-100 7.6”) Total stock appearance. I loved it!!!
I had a Corsa B Sport back in the day and after a few costly mods (not by me) it went like a bat out of hell, it cornered so well you'd end up with a sore neck after a while. This vid has me wanting another.
So many of these were eaten by the scrappage scheme. It's a nice sleeper, a lot of work went in to it, and beautifully done. Really liked the standard looking faux exhaust!
Same with Mitsubishi Colt, 1990.-1994. Hadn't seen those in while, but by pure luck- I got 1992. Colt with NO RUST on underbody... Just couple rust spots, where paint was scrapped on panels. No cracks on dashboard.
Really impressive build, fair play to him! All the effort has paid off! My first car was a corsa b sri, always wanted to build a LET engined one for nostalgia but getting harder to find!
I’ve actually got several sets of running gear and have plans to go 4x4 in future. I’m just not sure if the Saab motor will mount up nicely with the transfer box
That's a tremendous wee motor, super work there. That number plate 🤩 The conversion looks very, very well done. Very close plate to my old B that I had for 11 years and only sold last year W226LBL. Only a 1 litre mind, although I've got 2 Saab Turbos now, I've kind of done things a bit weird there!
love this .. old corsa and not just C-let or Z-let conversion. total sleep whith the wheels and stock looks just very tidy. Only enthusiast would notice the toyo proxes on 1l corsa ? wicked job tho!!
Love a sleeper, I had a k10 Micra running over 110Bhp about 15 years ago, the pure joy you get from leaving rich boys at the lights was just priceless. Proper nice job this!

The people who didn't want to tell you to help you probably made you advance well on your own. Now people are going to want to ask you. Good job and shot out from the U.S.
Yeah I had a lot of negative people doubt my skills and capabilities. The whole build was just one headache problem after another trying to make it all fit run and not give any future issues. I got there in the end. Thanks for your comment. 👏🏼👌🏼
Thanks mate. Yeah it’s great fun! Tends to leave most big power cars being so light. Never gets a bad reaction though. Everyone always gives a wave or a smile or thumbs up etc.
@@GoldenCroc Anyone who has any interest in cars knows what kind of car SAAB is and where it comes from. Of course, those born after 2011 may not be so aware, when the company was shut down. 😉

my friend had a polo with 500hp, and it was not fast (im not sure sleepser is the right word)
it just went sideways when it got gas
those light wieght cars often end up, outside the road in a crash with a long skid mark..
cause they have no weight to keep the car on the road and the power in the ground (that also goes for stopping power)

What a cracking little car! The cross breeding combinations some people come up with are class and sometimes a little left field, fair play to him 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
These are old school engine combos another old one was the old Clio with a Volvo 1.7 turbo inplanted
Saabs and vauxhall are very simular actually
I had the lowest mile saab 9-5 salloon in the uk for 5 years running
Gm bought saab, around 91 they all started using Gm bellhousing patterns so lots of stuff is interchangeable thats why they are a common swap.....

Gotta love a sleeper like this. The guy has done everything to try and make it look standard, respect.

Of course the B234R is the best Saab motor for tuning, “old but gold” as they say.
The subtitles are very useful on this one, the accent made everything harder to comprehend (i'm french btw)

That car is nuts ,bloody brilliant effort ! It’s fascinating to see all the imagination it takes to build a sleeper like that. Quality 👌
This is if not one of the best I have seen
Looks immaculate from the outside and the engine bay is very smart, excellent build. Just a shame it can’t get the power down without spinning
Fwd problems Marc, I'm sure when Nick gets some new tyres it will help
I'd put a more sticky compound tyre and wider like 225's , looks like its currently on 185's .
Cheap tyres don't help tbh
It’s Absolutely Ridiculous. He scrapped a SAAB! Then put the engine in a Vauxhall Corsa! There’s a special place in hell for idiots like that.

I do like the fact he's kept the car stock but just put a more powerful engine in it. It's cool I think it's a clean build.
This is just awesome!!
Extremely well done and looks very tidy.
Fair play to the guy
The people who didn't want to tell you to help you probably made you advance well on your own. Now people are going to want to ask you. Good job and shot out from the U.S.
Yeah I had a lot of negative people doubt my skills and capabilities. The whole build was just one headache problem after another trying to make it all fit run and not give any future issues. I got there in the end. Thanks for your comment. 👏🏼👌🏼
@@TheGoodtimecrew Keep it up and your welcome 👏👍
never thought id see the day that corsa bs would be so rare on the road haha, cracking build this
I need a Corsa with these wheels bro, so pretty! Really need it RIGHT NOW bro.
When he's got the 6-speed box in he should contact Misha and have him drive it on the Nürbergring to see what that Corsa can do :P
Must have so much fun blowing away larger cars. So unassuming and genius. Top build and attention to detail. As good as it gets. 👍
Thanks mate. Yeah it’s great fun! Tends to leave most big power cars being so light. Never gets a bad reaction though. Everyone always gives a wave or a smile or thumbs up etc.
Saab engines are awesome. Love my 9000s. 317bhp in a car which most people don't know what it is 👌
Where do you live, if they don't know what kind of car the SAAB 9000 is? Outer Space?🚗👀🤷♂👆🪐😁😉
@@larszenthio1012 The year 2022, presumably. Lots of young'uns around that have never heard of one even in markets where it was availible, I am sure.
@@GoldenCroc Anyone who has any interest in cars knows what kind of car SAAB is and where it comes from. Of course, those born after 2011 may not be so aware, when the company was shut down. 😉
