its not much money mate , 20 quid i paid for rear astra mk3 drums, i needed the hubs and will drive with drums until my calipers arrive as i really need car right now as im movin in new house ... and i have chance to buy a c20xe cheaper from my country so then would be nice plus disc brakes to me r better than drums and love the look too

Open up, to check whats goin on as something dont feel right .. I tried to plug in OBD 2 but o chance, Device cant connect to the ECU, maybe is cos of my alarm system, who knows ... so needed to take out apart and check if there anything looks wrong ,cables etc .. all looks good, have clean the throttle body and stuff and start driving better t b h ... What is this on the last photo ??? As the plug looks a bit crappy as got some blue stuff on it looks like rust (its not actually a metal rust but dont know what is the word in english language)

it wont cause a missfire but it will give the same sort of symtoms of a missfire or it can cause rough idle
