Hi all,
I stumbled upon this website while I was researching Astra SRI's, to see if they had many known problems. Top Site !!! :D

I've now purchased an Astra SRI ($31580), which so far has been only been tinted, but future mods planned include Intake/Exhaust and interior.

A mate has a Holden By Design rear skirt which I might whack on and have a look at...dunno how it will look though :?

Does anyone know whats the go with all the brake dust from the Astras ?
I've only had the car two weeks and I'm already sick of cleaning brake dust off the alloys. :roll:

Anyway - Hello to everyone - I'm looking forward to chatting and meeting you on an upcoming cruise...

I've heard that the brake dust comes from the brake pads..
hehehe
nah.. its coz in germany people can go as fast as they want.. and having softer pads, means that they can stop much faster than harder pads.. thats why the brake dust is so visible.. it's not meant for terrain and laws like here in aus?
does that make sense?
