The issues they have is most were owned by dickheads who brayed the bollocks off them and never maintained them
Aa above, much more problem free than the astra h vxrs and better looking too. A good one will comand strong money
Teddytom has one I will send him to tell you the tales of woe lol
Lol
other than turbo and stem seals and odd sensor they are a good car, the F23 gearbox is good and causes little trouble compared to the m32 6 speed box, if you are on facebook check out the page z20let lovers. the GSI is getting rarer by the month as so many are been broken for parts.
i have a forged z20let astra coupe with a ko6 and running about 320 bhp.
Yeh heard the f23 box is good compared to the troublesome m32. Iam on the look out for a good one suppose will have a long wait lol. Cheers for the advice.
Crap engines
Unreliable
Cheap tat
Full of common faults
Standard turbocharger couldn't blow out a candle
Intercooler might as well not be there
Boost solenoids fall to bits
Stem seals are crap
Oil feeds block up
But I loved mine when it worked lol
Lol they look good though
my coupe, ignore spoiler as its only fitted for track days along with a carbon bonnet i have! plan to make about 480-500bhp at end of year as bought a new Gtx3076r :d
