Yours manual? I thought it was auto

Negative, my car is girly enough without being auto :P

Majority of my time on the road is traffic. Lol

Most is highway for me, so manual > auto

Also considering auto use more fuel and manuals still have cruise control so it's still an easy drive

I've still got the evo here anyway, incase I feel the urge..

Driving the merc is so relaxing though, and coming back to what you said about the evo not being comfy, I've realized what you mean.

I've forgotten what comfort is lol.

haha working on the astra is a bitch, but they dont actually handle that bad!

people track them too, usually the turbo ones of course

willwood brakes

^^^ would buy.

SRi turbo astras = sweet!

If your missus's astra is the same model as my inlaw's astra (the same body shape as above pic), then yep, gonna have to agree they're not the most friendly to work on :yes:

Haha yeah, they are pretty 'firm' to drive :P

^^ why do you hate everything? Lol

Astra turbos are f**king mental cars! They handle a lot better than some of the boats on here..

because i was cooped up in hot kitchens for 80 hours a week for 10 years.

FWD = GAY... true story

what was that about a FWD winning Vic Time attack by like 4 secs?

oh and wasnt it a FWD that got the fastest time at eastern creek at SAU nats?

Haha touche'

That Integra is nuts

FYI nats was at Wakefield

+1 for turbo Astras, they have a mad little engine. +1 for Opels in general.

And +1 for FWD. I love me a good maccas tray slide.

Nick I don't know anyone who does those parts...eBay USA is where I'd be looking.

    • Welcome Gabriel, and thanks for saving one of the less famous cousins!
    • Wanting to avoid this if possible but kinda looking like I may not have a choice 😭
    • Ok awesome thank you. Just wanted to have them in case I can find some and need to compare part numbers!
    • All I can say Duncan is good luck and I hope that Neil did not run any E85 in Cheryl. I have recently experienced the full spectrum of fuel tank issues in my R33's that had been caused by E85 and contaminated fuel. When you take the cover off the top of the tank and have a look inside you will get an understanding of how easy it will be. Best case situation is clean fuel with minimal contamination. My GTR was like this and it was a very simple operation to just grab the fuel pump carrier bracket and slide it up and out of the tank. My three GTS_T's had different levels of fuel contamination that was probably caused by E85 in the fuel.  In the worst case all of the metal components in the tank had rusted to the point where there were pieces of rusted metal swirling around in the tank. This required the removal of the exhaust, the tailshaft, the complete rear cradle and the fuel tank. The components in the tank were that rusted that it took days to get the fuel pump carrier and the mounting brackets out of the tank. When the tank was finally cleaned, everything inside the tank had to be replaced. With the tank all back together I could then reinstall it in the car along with everything else that had to come out. Good luck and I hope that you find a clean tank.    
    • It is a two door. It is black and also still has the OEM wheels and stereo. Exact model would be KR_R32RGFEL_SS According to GTR-Registry.com is a 2 Door Coupe; RB20DE; 2WD no HICAS; MT.F5; (11L) Projector Headlamps and Fog Lights; (12_) Electronic Active Full Auto Air Con (Climate Control); (13-14SS) V Selection -- Which seems to be accurate description of my variant. Will try to upload a few pictures soon. The OEM wheels look like the below image. Image is taken from the goo-net-exchange website.
