Default Video of my astra

Was just going through some old videos testing the astra just after the build, the gay blue dash and funky steeringwheel are only memories now

Hope this works aswell :S Right click + download 9.65MB

Oh.....perhaps its a browser fault?

As for her going like stink, well yes she does getting a bit used to the power now, want something twice as fast Still, she's not bad for normally aspirated goodness

She's standard appart from a bit of headwork, nothing fantastic, just a polish and casting marks ground out.

Standard they make 155 without the cat (its a GTE engine 20XE) but i have a cat, but it still beats GTE's which is strange lol I would hazard a guess at 160bhp due to it being a strong engine & perhaps something to do with 4 head skims Dunno what the CR is, would like to check at some point but dunno how

K, this video i dunno what i was thinking, 140mph with a camera in one hand and trying to steer

This was just after the conversion aswell, was curious what it would do. But it has since gone way past the 140 mark, off the clock infact

C18XE isn't worth shit to me, i don't think they got half the poke the 2 litre has, they are bloody rare though.
