dude, are you seats re-trimmed or just seat covers?

4th June 2004, 01:35 PM
I like Olly's car, but it just needs a wash :P

But there are a few nice cars in the sydney crew, only problem is that the photos dont do them justice.

My favourite ofcourse is mine, and steve's cause its also a smurf :mrgreen:

haha i doubt it.. but if he had done a barina same model as yours before he would have a template.. mine was the first calibra he did so he kept another copy of mine for a template.

opel_calibra
4th June 2004, 04:42 PM
its the 2litre 16v.. just running a cat back exhaust and panel filter... it costs enough to keep it on the road @180,000kms , so i havent done much to the engine

Nah mate, i reckon this looks very similar to the BA ;);) hehehe

No rear spoiler yet. im not too fond on rear spoilers. but who knows, might get one later.

This car is all show, no go :) Just a stock standard v6. it would have been reasonably quick, if it wasnt an auto :( my best 0-100 with stockwheels (lighter) was 8.7seconds. It has a K&N panel filter. and im gonna do the 3 Pipe mod to it soon. But thats all im gonna do performance wise. I dont really feel the need for speed anymore :)

8.7 secs isn't bad. Its around the mark of the new accord and mazda6. Nice work - I like. Im not real keen on spoilers myself............thinking of getting one but worried i might not like it after.................

4th June 2004, 07:23 PM
............thinking of getting one but worried i might not like it after.................

my thoughts exactly. i might photoshop one on when i get the time.
and yeah 8.7 is okay, but if i had a manual that would be 7.5 seconds :) oh well.

2) Shaohaok's (When he used to drive an Astra)
3) Samvac's (saw some pictures of it from the cruise, there's something about it I like)
4) Smellytofu's
