Very nice mate!
What ever happened to that Red 2.5 V6 Turbo Corsa B featured in TV a few years ago. He spent like 3k just to get it to run right with some electrical firm iirc.
The conversion was done in my home town <<< I dont think they could get it to run correct.
I remember the chaps who got it running right wished the owner good luck as it was a handful on the roads!!

no idea mate, look at the caliper clearance at the top and the bottom of the caliper theres hardly any and mo's are ment to take big brakes, so its unlikly other 15's will take the brakes but i'm not 100% sure

Yes you have 2x G cams.I asked if u fitted the full set,i.e another 2 G cams to replace the A cams.
Clearly not tho.

there was a white nova v6 turbo in total vauxhall not long agin that beat my mates nova LET to 60 but lost out on top end as he was using a f20 rather than a F28 which my mate chris had.
yea nic, its not a lot you have to take off of them and there not effected in anyway.
As said engine wise only big mod that was done was the exhaust manifold, never knew about the cams, what gains would be made with another set of G cams?

The G cams are higher lift so would probably give a bit more power.IIRC facelift Vectra B Gsi's had all 4 G cams.

Yeah i only picked that specific colour due to the mos already been powder coated that colour so i just got all the swatch booklets and got the closest match, you just need a really dark metalic grey, like greys dont go against the star silver as i found out when i got them painted 1st time round

they should fit behind TD's Pro Race 1.2's. they have a huge amount of clearance for brakes too, being motorsport wheels.
