MK3 Astra GSi Differences

[goonasuk]

Probably been asked before but..... what were the differences in Phase 1 and 2 Astra GSi's... I've picked up that the trim on the seats and the wing mirrors changed, but was wondering about other bits.

Cheers in advance and forgive me for asking a question that has probably been asked before... any pictures would be great. Oh and what year did it all change?

ph1 gsi stopped at 1995. then 96 came the ph2 gsi

differences were the side skirts, rear tailgate spoiler, rear lights, alloys, and engine. ph2 gsi also had no bonnet vents

Anyone got any pictures of the differences ?

Thanks

There were a few changes when the ecotec's came about too, no squirters and no fogs

94 onwards seem to be parts big specials lol luck of the draw

hope this helps

i see fogs on this red phase 2... standard?

 

[elgan]

also, noticed today my phase 2 gsi has bonnet vents too. dont think they've been added on because the car is otherwise totally standard. Only thought ive got is maybe the bonnet was replaced due to a bump or something with an early gsi bonnet. who knows.

someone mentioned that the ecotec ones don`t have fogs. Mine(c18xe) does and I think they have been there from the beginning.

fogs are standard

Fogs didnt come standard on the 1.8 eco-wreck gsi's.Only on the 2.0s.And the later Limited Edition models didnt have bonnet vents as standard.

Fogs were also standard on phase 2 GSi's. The front wings and doors, and rear arches are also different to the phase 1 GSi as there is no 3rd swage line along the bottom, only 2 on the phase 2.
