    Mk 4 Astra SRi C20LET!

    After leaving the vauxhall scene for a while I'm now back...

    Quick spec of the car from what iv seen

    Pretty much standard c20let motor with an fmic and a d/v
    Diesel gearbox apparently?? Not looked yet.
    Irmsher back box
    Astra gte digi dash
    17 Vaux wheels
    Lowered 40mm
    Bonnet lifted
    Opel badging and opc grill
    Boost gauge in vent
    And recaro front seats
    Vxr front brakes, Apparently but the disks are huge!

    That's all iv seen so far but I think the car is mint, not quite as fast as the impreza I swapped it for but it's quick enough to make me smile


    My plans for the car are as follows..

    8000k hid kit
    Gsi bumpers and spoiler
    Colour coded rub strips
    Heko smoked wind deflectors
    Rear tints
    And some decent wheels calibre vintage are at the top of the list atm






    Comfy recaros!



    Gte digi dash





    Cheers for looking comments welcome

    Re: Mk 4 Astra Sri c20let!

    I'm sure at some point il be takin them out lol I'd. Like to make the dash brighter?? So it will be coming out

    Few pics after today's cleaning and a quick polish....






    It's cleaned up 1 million times better than I thought it would, it had been sat under a tree for the last month or so :/ but I'm absolutely chuffed with the results

    Hoping to get a gsi spoiler sorted asap and one of the wing mirrors needs repainting as it looks to have been sanded down with a very corse house brick!

    Little update....

    Got my gsi spoiler fitted last Friday.

    Ordered some goodies today.... A replica Gsi bumper, a smooth scuttle/ bonnet extension and a roof/top of the window spoiler ( the flat type not the hidious massive type)

    Just waiting for them to turn up now and it's off to the painters probably by the end of next week, it's booked in to have... The bumper, side skirts, scuttle cover, wing mirror, roof spoiler, spoiler, and rub strips all to be painted in 82l star silver

    A couple of pics with the spoiler...




    One of the hids I fitted Sunday, there really bright.



    And this turned up today, a keyring that my better half brought me as a suprise! Very pleased with it

    Re: Mk 4 Astra Sri c20let!

    Well seeing as I managed to get some welding slag in my eye at work yesterday I had today off

    Which ment I decided to go to exhaust uk in Sheffield to get an exhaust made up.

    I already have a 2.5" system but it was mated to an irmsher back box (as in the pics) that was really quite and not very good!

    So I ordered a 3.5" outward rolled tailpipe left there premisis, came back an hour and a half later and it was done

    Pics.....






    I am more than happy with the results! The car seems far easier to drive now, alot smoother and it spins the wheels up in first on boost, whereas it didn't before

    The quality and price elders second to non, would recommend them to anyone.

    Not much of an update but....

    While waiting for various things to be delivered etc and funds being slightly low I decided to spruce up my wheels a wee bit

    Then today I decided to do the plug cover the same.








    It looks ok for the minute just waiting on parts turning up and getting sprayed then I can order my wheels....

    I'm also having to downsize my brakes so I can get the wheels I want 321mm discs are just to big for 16" rims! Il be getting some 308s soon hopefully.

    Re: Mk 4 Astra Sri c20let!

    Bit of a decent update....

    Managed to get most of my parts this week bar the roof spoiler that's still somewhere in Poland :/

    Anyways sent them off to the painters, got them back and fitted everything today

    Had the mirrors, spoiler, scuttle and bumper sprayed!

    The car is slowly devoping some problems when on boost thow so soon enough I thing it will be getting rebuilt!

    Pics after everything was fitted... I still need to get some grills and fogs

    Comments welcome













    Thought I'd took more decent pics but obviously not lol

    Hope you like.
