So here is my car. it currently only a 1.2 and i'm using it to get to and from college everyday. hopefully in easter holidays i will have saved up enough money to have my 1.6 GSi engine dropped in and all working.

So it first looked like this:

then i got some calibra cesaro alloys and it lookes like this now:

and then my friend has done a photoshop for my which is exactly how i want it to look, except i might do the alloys white and also definatly do a GSi front bumper:

Should look like this withing the next 4-5 months depending on money, etc.

Gonna be a minter, no rust anywhere near it. will post up plans for it later when i'm not in lesson, getting told off!!!! haha.

so i'm out of lesson now and i guess i can find enough time in the library before i get kicked off for not doing work!!

so the mods so far:
De-aerialed, semi-smooth boot with solenoid fitted and working, GSi side skirts, Vauxhall cesaro alloys, de badged front and rear and clear rear lights.

Plans are:

Exterior:
GSi front bumper, 60mm springs with uprated shocks, front rear and side skirts sprayed black. windows tinted (maybe), vectra V6 brakes all round, de-handled and de locked with solenoids fitted.

Interior:
Black dash, Sparco buckets, rear seat removed, sub 6x9's and amp installed and all hidden under fake flooring. security system, possibly toad ai606. maybe laguna splitter on front of gsi bumper and a custom rear bumper of some sort. got an idea but its a surprise, watch this space.

Engine:
1.6 8v gsi re-built, either throttle bodies or kent fast road cam, 4:2:1 manifold and straight through custom system to 3 1/2" tail pipe, possibly maybe the twin duplex system instead, still dedciding. make it fast but reliable basically. loud and lots of acceleration!!

there are the plans so watch this space. updates coming just after christmas, probably just before though.

hope you like the photoshop.

Mart.
