Mk 2 Astra SXi, 16v

[Peakster]

Engine:
I have fitted a C20XE, it has a Coscast head with a Courtney Chip and high torque Cams. Unfortunatley it is still using my original 8v exhaust system and peco rear box.

Transmission
Standard 5 speed gearbox (F20) that came with the engine

Suspension
Standard Gas shocks all round, lowered 35mm on Spax springs. Front upper and lower OMP stut braces and rear OMP stut brace. Rear beam changed for 16v jobbie which has more negative camber (which = better handling + less scrubbing) and which means I have rear disc brakes.

Brakes
Front brakes are Standard 288mm vented discs with ATE callipers (same as GTE 16v). The rear drum brakes have been replaced with 16v GTE items. Standard Lucas discs and pads all round, All four calipers have been painted gold.

Wheels & Tyres
Kyowa racing 5 spoke 7x17" alloys, et42 with Avon ZZ-1 tyres.

Styling
GTE side skirts, GTE bonnet (with vents painted metallic grey), GTE rear light clusters, GTE rear rub strip attached under standard rear SXi rear bumper, New front wings with no ariel hole and indicators positioned lower than normal, Focus crystal side repeaters, Lexmaul/Kamei meshed grill, Quad head light conversion, Mk 2 Golf indicators with clear lenses fitted in rub strip of front bumper, Modified SXi bumper corner splitters and a cut out and meshed grill, Grey pinstripe which follows the swage line allong the wings and under the windows, Bee sting ariel, Solex door locks, Shiny bonnet lifters, MIG club sticker!!

Interior
Standard Black and Red SXi recaro's (Much nicer than the GTE interiors), Momo Race steering wheel, Richbrook Gear nob, Conrero gear stick gaitor, dodgy yellow clock replaced with standard black and white clock. Speaker pods fitted to door cards to fit components in.

ICE & Security
Pioneer head unit (the one with race cars and flying eagles on the screen), Pioneer Co-axials in standard under dash position, Pioneer 5" components in pods on doors, Pioneer 6x9" speakers in parcel shelf, pioneer 4x100 Watt amp, Pioneer 12" Sub.
Cobra Cat 1 alarm fitted.

Performance
0-60 of about 7-7.3 seconds. Unsure of power as I aint had it rolling roaded but around 160 bhp 175 Lbft of torque. Prob not as good as it could be due to requiring 16v exhaust.
