Mike_B_gte can you open the boot and take a pic so i can see how you bolted the bonnet pins in to the boot please mate or just tell me were to bolt it all in to thanks

if i could offer you one piece of advice it would be - do not put bonnet pins on your tailgate, and if you must - do not mount them where i have!! most people put the pins just above the tail lights, which to be honest is best.

ive got them at the bottom but to do this i have to modify the pins and the clasps. it was, i kid you not, 4 nights work to get them lined up and working without catching!

i will take a photo for you tonight though.

Looks to me like theyre off to the righ of it ever so slightly, if youre running aq cone filter would be a silly idea to do this tbh as it will allow rais/road water in bad weather straight into the airfilter and in really bad weather could hydraulic the engine!

No, there were rumours it got trashed, but it was seen at TRAX last year looking fine apart from a missing grille. Charge cooler had been dumped in favour of a FMIC.

Definately one of the finer Novas from the glory days.

Needing any more pics of GTE's lol ?

Aye Ernie, the GSi interior did look well in your GTE :D

Always wondered though, how come it had a Performance Astra Group sticker in the front window ?

I think it's because i had only just sold this and had nowere else to stick it lol.
The png was still in the weeds at this time remember.

Yea i know what you mean but as said the red interior just looks cheep and tacky to me and i just dont like the front end one bit

vaughanmc
10-09-08, 05:07 PM
I think the front end is mean! Morrette's will come back I think :)

The interior isn't that nice really but its been in there for a long time and there it should stay!

The owners have really looked after it

BIGS
10-09-08, 05:11 PM
yea i like morretts but have to be the right type imo. and maybe its with the spotlights thats just makes it look like to much is going on. but i wouldnt change it because of the fact of what you said and everyone knows it for what it is.

But it does look good now with only the top 6 lights

Taa for the coments, the g-plate was bought with the no. plate at the bottom, thought it looked ok at the time. hence the f-plate in original position.

i would keep the cav slabs in its original form, it will look more factory (if thats the look ur after)

CAN ANYONE PHOTO SHOP THE F-PLATE LOWERED WITH SLABS AS I HAD INTENTIONS OF DOING SO BUT IN TWO MINDS WITH SPEED BUMPS CROPPING UP EVERYWHERE!:thumb:

(esp) L14 MNP :D

Aye, funny resolution in the camera but I reckon its possibly the Aubergine that Astra GTE 16v's came in (not Bordeaux Red) or the colour on that Cav SRi. Does look really subtle though.

Lord knows how I got the picture to show twice! lol
