Hi there,

I've just joined. We've had an Astra G X18XE1 since new. Recently, its become my daily drive. Been mucking around with a few things - eg. unifilter.

Some questions:
EDS re-chipped ECUs from those crazy Germans. Anyone with experience?
Exhaust shop - best in Brisbane?
Brake upgrade: 308mm SRi Turbo disc for the front. Where from for discs? Dual pot calipers available?
Where do you get your bits from (Oz, UK, Deutcher)?

Hey and welcome!
Sorry can't answer your questions but I'm pretty sure someone on here will be able to.
Also depends what 'bits' you are after.

we can retune the ecu's here ;) and i mean we can :D.
u can get vented rotors for cheap, a full brake upgrade wouldnt be cheap.
depends what bits u need as to where we get them front.

giday mate and welcome to opelaus.

on the matter of ur brake upgrade. i was looking at the same thing. lmf in the uk do 1 but will not send it over due to the cost because of its weight. looked at doing that upgrade myself. instead i got drilled + slotted rotors and braided lines. pulls up better than my vectra. hope u find any other info ur looking for.
