Ha guys, you may remeber a post i did a while ago when i got my cordia, so think its time for an update,

its bin in storage for a while now and finally last week i brought it out and started the work,

so far its bin striped out fully had a full service, 

im now in the process of fitting a front mount intercooler and a chargecooler, have a look through hte pics and let me know what u think,

there only a rough test fit for now but i was plesantly suprised thay it all fitted behind the original grill.

more photos to follow once i start plumbing it all in.

 

intercooler and Chargecooler rad on the right

 

 

and all behind hte original grill woth no cutting or anything

Also, i was hoping somebody might be able to help me,

iv bin offered a load of brand new cordia bit, for a really low price, but there for a 1.6 turbo, will a 1.6 turbo, exhaust, rear brake shoes, oil filter and front pads fit the 1.8 turbo?

The 1.6 is a carby turbo............one of the first.........the only thing I believe is interchangeable are the rear brake linings.
