now your not seeing things, Ive bought a LONG Term project.

Ill get photos up when I get half a chance this week. but heres the Story

I bought, in February, a Mk3 Astra GSi (Phase 2 Special Edition) in Flame Red, a Previous Owner had modified the rear chassis to take a Calibra Turbo rear Subframe, Suspension and Differential. before I bought it, (it was being broken Sad ) it had a c20let and f28 6speed gear box from a Calibra Turbo.

I paid very little for it, as a rolling shell

included in the sale was some 17" Wolfrace alloys (up for sale/scrap soon), Transfer Box and Prop Shaft, Rear Diff, 5 Stud hubs, 288mm Brakes, complete interior.

the Proposed spec is:

Engine, Gearbox and Running Gear:
z20let from a mk4 Astra GSi (Bought)
f28 gearbox
qrew locked transfer box
equal length driveshafts
a&h fabrications intercooler (custom made for another mk3 GSi) (Bought)
mk4 GSi/Coupe Engine loom (Bought)
mk4 GSi ECU
z20let/z20leh Turbo (undecided)
Corsa B EPAS

Interior:
Mk4 GSi 160mph Electronic Clocks (Bought)
'Fly By Wire' Throttle (as opposed to cable driven) (Bought)
Standard Interior.
Vectra B SRi Steering wheel with Audio Controls (Bought)
Air Con (possibly)
Cruise Control
Omega Rear Windscreen Aerial Amplifier
Alpine front Components (Owned)
Alpine rear 6" components fitted in rear quarter panels (Owned)
Alpine Headunit (Owned)
Alpine Tweeters (Owned)
Elec Sunroof
Auto dimming rear view mirror from an Omega

Car Spec:
OEM on the outside, with OEM+ 16" 5 stud Irmscher twin spoke alloys (it came with 4stud 15s standard)
Electric Wing Mirrors from a phase 2 GSi (Bought)
Phase 1 GSi rear lights (Owned)
Black 1 Piece Angel Eye head lamps (Possible)
GSi Grill from South Africa with Headlamp washers

That is the rough spec at the moment, there will be changes, and it will be a slow build.

Sold it! £100 - paid £125 for it. Would've liked more but it was taking up too much space to keep. Standard interior is staying in this one, or Leather Recaros from a mk4 GSi or Vec B GSi IF I can find some cheap! Laughing a VXR interior would be lush

But trying to keep it OEM
