With regard to the sunroof, my friend had an issue in his car with a cage, so he took the sunroof out, had a glass bit made and used a seal u get with after market sun roofs so just had a glass top with no issues of fouling with the cage!

it looks like your going rather far with a 4dr astra for a track car with a small engine, are you planning something specual under the bonnet?

no the fun is lost when you start making it unreliable

as it currently out corners 70% of what it comes across at the ring its more fun with 118bhp

still think it needs a v6 however

I think the walnut dash trim adds a certain something to the mix.

whats the options though

xe - old would need a rebuild
LET, above, plus would it really be cut out for constant lapping
V6 - best option i can see tbh

or maybe the 2.2 chain driven 150bhp lump ?

sod putting a heavy v6 in it, a bit of old school tuning would get my vote, and less weight
