    We have the Holden Astra Turbo here, (same thing, different badge) i believe that 204hp is not unrealistic

    here we go in KW and it has
    Power/torque: 147kW/250Nm
    so that in HP is approx 198HP so for the sake of 6HP id believe that.

    can you pm me a pic or mail it to me?

    thats a mk4 and uses the z20let engine which is slightly less that the c20let as its newer and emissions laws were increased

    mines a mk3 and uses the c20let

    never came with the engine from factory i converted it

    thank you

    oh yeah forgot about the wheels, again their functional, ive got 308mm brakes and going bigger so i cant get away with any smaller wheels,

    the only ricey thing was the exhaust tailpipe which was on the car when i bought it and as i stated in the first post i didnt like it but cant afford a replacement at the minute.

    Aren't those wheels the same as the ones on a Seat Leon Cupra R? Cos they're pretty ace wheels, but I'm not so sure as they suit the Astra. Maybe they're a bit too dark for the paintjob. Not really sure.

    I wouldn't mind seeing it either. Go on, give UCP a second chance.

    I own a S7 and a murcialago among other incredibly nice cars. Hold on I'll go do the egg nog test.

    See? There all right here: http://givemealook.com/ipw-web/gallery/album358

    I also included my buggati.

    The special garage covering warms up the tires very fast so I can go racing in my privat race track out back.

    I have a special "12 year old" drivers liscense.
