    Default Vauxhall nova 2.0 turbo C20LET (reduced)

    Engine
    C20LET 2.0 turbo Calibra engine, standard turbo running 7-8psi, dual capacity charge cooler with its own radiatior behind the front bumper, Denso iridium spark plugs, 8mm Magnecor leads, polished plug cover and oil cap, large cone air filter, full stainless exhaust system with decat pipe and 3? powerflow backbox with out rolled tip
    Exterior:
    Full GSi kit, Mk3 Astra GSi bonnet vents, GM headlamp protectors, euro style red/clear rear lights, delocked doors with remote central locking, single wiper conversion, alloy petrol cap, rear arches rolled to allow for it to be lowered so much (does not rub even with 3 people in the back), full respray in Subaru Pearl Blue
    interior:
    Retrimmed GSi seats and doorcards in half leather, half alcantra, snap off steering wheel also retrimmed in alcantra, boost gauge mounted to A-pillar, Astra mk2 digi dash, alloy gearknob, electic windows, fan switch and chargecooler switches mounted near headlight switch, fire extinguisher mounted to centre console. the gauges in the centre console are now gone and i have put standard heater vents back in but havent got a clock for there yet.
    Wheels,suspension and chassis:
    16" Irmscher Softstar wheels, Spax coilovers on the front, very low at the back.red front strut brace, 2.0 front brakes and rear disk conversion too, engine bay fully seam welded for strengthening

    Kenwood head unit, 6x9s in parcel shelf

    NEW PARTS IT HAS HAD FITTED:
    passenger side ball joint has been replaced.
    sump gasket recently done and sealed (Genuine GM one)
    had a new clutch and thrush bearing fitted (standard C20LET)
    new magnecor leads and denso iridium spark plugs
    new rocker cover gasket (GM one from vauxhall)
    had a new windscreen fitted 2 months ago with a brand new rubber
    2 new roof gutter rubbers. (from vauxhall)
    Coolant temperature sensor (from vauxhall)
    SPARE PARTS:
    i have a few spare parts which will be sold with the car. these are:
    2 new wishbones.
    1 new ball joint. (have already replaced passenger side one)
    spare heater vents.
    sure i have more but cant think off the top of my head

    Bad points
    Engine runs a bit lumpy on first start up of the day. Once been warmed up it is fine.
    Could do with 2 new front tyres as they have worn on the inner edge.
    a clip is broken on the grill and makes it stick out a little bit on the passenger side.
    few stonechips on front bumper.
    an oil pipe going to the turbo from underneath is leaking a small amount of oil.
