stuartyj21 astra gsi

[stuartyj21]

hi all, just recently bought a 93 astra gsi as a new project/daily driver.
the car has the all important redtop with 148k on it but it seems sweet enough with no rattles or smoke, the car is generally in good condition just needs some tlc.

Please wait

Nice one Stuart ! Bought a spectral blue one myself a while ago. Cracking little cars.

What's the plans?

[xe Dan]

keeping an eye on this as ive got a mk3 gsi to but mines an r reg phase 2

[stuartyj21]

the plans are to get the bumpers and skirts off and get whatever metal work that needs sorted done, then probably give it a full respray.

then get the interior done and cleaned, slight drivers bolster wear.

engine wise it aint broke so dont fix'it, just new timing belt kit, full service, new fuel pump and fan rad switch.

think thats all but will know better when i start getting it striped.

[stuartyj21]

well got the car up on the stands, so let the de-construction begin....





any comments or suggestions welcome, need some advice as to whats the best exhaust system and suspension kit to get etc...

[steviegsi]

If you are changing exhausts and or wheels, let me know as I may be interested in buying yours

[stuartyj21]

will defo be changing the exhaust be i am keeping the original wheels as i have a set of speedlines that will fit the astra.

All the best with it.
