Thought it was about time that i started a build thread! So here we go. Owned the astra coming up for two years now and am currently undergoing a c20let conversion. Here are a few pics of the car when i first bought it...
(old astra in the background looking sorry for itself lol)
And a few more recent ones;
Getting ready to be disassembled for the new engine;
And how it stands now;
(just a mock up of how the intercooler could sit, have yet to mount it properly)
Few pics of the engine;
Nice shiny new forge actuator and custom bracket that i got made up at work!
Bought the tall engine (no ancilleries) last November and got it for what i thought was a decent price with it being rebuilt 2-3k miles ago and have been slowly gathering parts since. Am still in need of a few more parts but i cant wait to get it up and running!
