Astra Diesel section

[PaulyJ]

Hi All,

A new sub-forum has been introduced for the Astra Diesel range, located in the Astra section.

We understand that the diesels are considerably different model to the rest of the Astra range, and feel that it deserved its own sub-section.

Astra Diesel section

Enjoy oil-burners.

Regards
Paul

But again.. Still no VXR section. And Adding a link to www.hsvvxr.com isnt what was asked for either.

Also HSV VXR.com is ran by a different group of people to Opelaus . I thought i would just clear that up with everyone.

Wowsers is this still going on.... seriously, a Vectra B and a Vectra C are totally different cars, and we have the same section to share..... the Astra AH SRi-T and Astra VXR are a lot more similar than the two Vectra's, and as for the Astra Diesel... I agree with Admin... it is a breed amongst itself and so deserves a separate section.

And.... it is painfully obvious even to myself, that the hsvvxr forum is totally different to Opelaus and not run by Opelaus.

you said it right there tfer, doesnt that kind of contradict what you just said?

wouldnt you call the VXR a "breed amongst itself" to the AH astra range (just like the diesel is)? i certainly would. so if this was the case, why wouldnt it "deserve a separate section" too?

This be the arguement from Admin why would you give a turbo section to start with ? It could be under the Astra section then.


SRi T AH and HSV VXR are not similar. Mods for the on the VXR arent advisable to do to a SRi T. As the engine has different internals for start. A VXR has a stronger engine which is capable of handling more power then a SRi T because of its stronger internals. (Proven fact by many UK Tuners. Please go ahead and challange them.)

They idea is though so it makes it eaiser for Both The VXR and SRi T members looking through items there respective vehicle. Instead of sitting there sifting through every post in the Turbo Section to work out if something is for the AH SRi T / TS SRi T or the VXR.

Seeing as others have decided to bastardise my comments... thought I should do the same to my original comments, so that you all fully comprehend what I am saying:

• Separate section for Astra VXR: do not agree
• Separate section for Astra Diesel: agree

But hey, this is but my opinion, and it may not of course be right in your minds ... but my opinion is right to me

and as for the Astra Diesel... I agree with Admin... it is a breed amongst itself and so deserves a separate section.

No, as you misquoted me

Again, misquoted

Sorry Shaun, I will agree to disagree.... I think both the Astra SRi-T and the Astra VXR are fabulous cars for their intended markets, but I still believe, and nothing here has proven elsewise, that the Astra SRi-T and Astra VXR are more similar to each other, than a Veccy B and Veccy C, hence why I believe the same section does both Astra's.

There is no criticism of anyone's ride here... each to their own. And no way could I be bothered to discuss the finer points of engine internals with UK tuners, when I am not considering a move to either an Astra SRi-T or Astra VXR.....

Just my opinion.

Shaun, shut up!
If you're so pedantic about sifting thru stuff between AH SRi T / TS SRi T or the VXR, use the search function.

How hard is it for a member when making a post to put 'VXR' in the topic...?
All of Admin agree unanimously about not putting a VXR section in there. In the future if it becomes clearly obvious that there is a heap of vxr discussion on the forums that would warrant a seperate section, then I'll add it in. The Astra diesel's are completely different and do warrant a seperate sub-section for that reason.

Going by your train of thought, does that mean that the Corsa SRi deserves a seperate section to the rest of the Corsa range? Corsa B and C's are significantly different, as are Veccy B's and C's. They all have one section, and to date I have had not 1 complaint. Why is it that you are the only one going on and on about a seperate VXR section?

Sorry Shaun, but for now this stands as it is. As I said above. If discussions on the VXR get to a point where it deserves its own section, i will put one in.

Regards
Paul and Admin
