    K-plater, and a C20XE engine.... Unless you say its a Astra GTE engine.


    How come your disappointed with the performance? It should seem a lot quicker than a t40d 1400/Nova sri..

    its got a sports cat, so no worries there, ts says it in the spec on the post on mig

    Yep, but he mentioned that hes removing the cat


    SRi steelies would look sweet, fit 256 brakes, sri steelies look cool over them, just clear with worn pads :D

    Yes the wheel does turn

    i just didnt think it was that fast and thought the sports cat mite restrict it slightly. i woul run sri steelies as i have about a dozen this being my 4th one but as you say there v6 brakes really need to sort out that gear linkage though. yeah the paintwork is spot on and its all original has a couple of dents here and thare but its an old car which used to be a turbo so the speeds it probably used to go a daddy long legs would dent it
