The modified car thread

Hello everyone,

Not been around here alot lately, anyway recently got myself a new car and yes... ive been modding it already...

Anyway basically its a 2001 Vauxhall Astra SRi, its the 1.8 16v model, pretty quick car compaired to some, but later this year / next year hopefully will be fitting a Z20LET 2.0 turbo, at this point i'll start tuning this engine too, so hopefully will be seeing some big BHP by mid next year.

Anyway, bought the car standard, obviously been a 2001 car, it had a few odds and ends the needed sorting, ie cracked center console, few stone chips etc, which i'll be sorting out. Ive got the new center console in and fitted though as the pics will show.

Sadly i didn't get any pictures before i put her on kw coil-overs so you might not understand just how much shes been lowered.

Anyway, you'll get a good idea as to the work ive done from the pics so i'll let them do the talking.









Front end stripped ready for some mods, including new headlights fitting.









Sadly forgot to take pics before i'd already started taking her apart!











New induction kit with blue hose, sadly forgot to take pics before, but you can her stripped down above with standard air box, this is only for temp measure till i fit the Z20LET





Sorry i tried to keep it within reason, but i guess ive posted abit much for this thread, feel free to seperate it for my own thread if you feel necessary.

More mods to come as always though.

Cheers.
