Default 2002 Vectra GSI MSD 2.6 V6

looks lovely

got to ask, are the bbs rims exact vaux fitment, or 5x112 vw/merc fitment with wobble bolts? im looking at the bbs reps for my vectra and they only come in the 5x112, n just wondering what width and offset these rims are, as they seem to sit quite nicely

Whats the MSD number mate.

Very nice colour, these come with the larger front brakes on the 2.6 at 308mm compared to 288mm on the 2.5.

Also these are FBW throttle.

Open the bonnet and there is a plaque next to the Bonnet hindge, might help people knowing the number mate.

Plus keep the MSD register upto date, most of these are never known on it.

Unsure on total numbers. Here is the register...

http://andivec.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/1.html

Many were not registered as when you wanted a Gsi they sent a bare Sri without seats, door cards, steering, wheels, exhaust, front bumper and engine. Numbers were kept by MSD but when they went bust they were lost.

They then fitted Recaro Seats door cards, Titanium colour 3 spoke on the facelift 2.5 and 2.6, then they added the Twin fatboy backbox, 6 spoke 17's, Deep splitter bumper. They then added Gsi spec cams to the original engine, these added near on 30bhp on the 2.5 and a little less on the 2.6 due to emissions.

There is more thats the bump of it.
