Corsa SRi - WTF? :o
Had a sprint on a dual carridgeway last night. Corsa stuck up my backside at 40mph.. so I open her up in 3rd all the way up to the red line and I've gotta say, I was pulling away, but this thing was there with me all the way up. Get into 4th, still pulling hard and I'd say I gained about 4 car lengths but that was about it.
Get to the island and it's a flippin Corsa SRi.
Ain't these just a poxy 1.4?
The 00-present SRi's are 1.8 16v's with 123 bhp and 60 in about 8 seconds. Not exactly slow

And weren't the older ones 1.6 16v? I like the new one's, saw one the other day. Know how much they are and what insurance rating?
This was an old shape one. Wasn't the new one.
Old GSi's were a 1.6 16v, but they only have about 110bhp. Old shape SRi's I don't know about.. think they were only the 1.4...Originally Posted by Big_Al
What followed me last night was definately not a blummin 1.4

1.4i 16v or 1.8i 16v or 1.7 CTDi
This was an old shape one. Wasn't the new one.
Corsa's don't exactly weigh much so a 1.6 16v will probably pull quite well!

The GF has a 1.4 16v old shape Corsa and for a 1.4 it does go bloody well.
Living and dying laughing and crying
Once you have seen it you will never be the same
Life in the fast lane is just how it seems
Hard and it is heavy dirty and mean
1.4 16v = 90bhp
Lowe's Clio must be nearly pushing 200bhp.... so i doubt the 1.4 16v corsa would keep up with him.... its gotta have been one of the larger engine SRI's.

whos to say his wasnt modded
probably modded by chuckin a 2.0 litre astra gsi lump in there! Or Clalibre Turbo engine
My bet would be an engine transplant job there tbh, an SRi is quick as standard, but not that quick
Go browse the corsa forums - You'll probaly find a post from some modded corsa owner asking how much power has a 5 door clio got cos one has just blown his doors off.....
lol.. now THAT would be funneh
Lowe, what bhp are you running these days? I didn't think it was anywhere near 200bhp?
