    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.

    Just my opinion.

    No criticism taken but in terms of mods that can be carried out on Both the SRi T AH and VXR there are a world of difference in the levels that you can go to.
    The VXR has been developed with more insight then the SRi T interms of changed that can be made. Factory has come to realise that the VXR / OPC in Europe is going to be more modified by the end user and has worked towards making the car more viable for the end user to do so. Thats not saying the SRi T cant be modded or is a cheaper verison that is rubbish becaue i can honestly say i have driven both cars and both are execptional value you for what you get off the show room floor.

    Again the point im trying to make is why sit here for hours reading through post that may or may not apply to what your looking for . When alls that required is to break up the 4 sections . Have the turbo section as is. The break it into 4 sub groups.
    Calibra Turbo
    TS SRi T
    AH SRi T
    HSV VXR

    Because as time goses and more people join with a TS SRi T AH SRi T and VXR which will happens and is already happening compaired back to when i joined 3 years ago it will make life eaiser.

    Its about planning for the future and using some forsight for a change.

    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.

    i don't see how i can misquote you tfer when i hit the 'quote' button... but oh well...

    long story short, i don't care if there is a vxr sub-section or a diesel sub-section, but surely if there is a diesel section, there could also be a vxr section?

    NB: just my opinion, not telling mods what to do

    Maybe you should've run for PM.
    Shaun, i understand that there maybe a difference to the mods you can get. I'm not going to agrue with you about that. All your points about the differences are valid. However, on OA at present there is not enough discussion on these things for the VXR to have its own section.

    The decision stands, now drop it and dont use this thread anymore for this discussion.
