    Today i saw what looked like an astra sri, but it had a red badge on instead of the holden.
    It was like a red box with a slahy R on it

    Astra typeR's only come out in japan. They're illegal to import to australia coz of the highly tuned engine exceeds our emission ADR's. you can find out more about this at:

    why would nismo or TRD tune an Astra? Im sure it's just some bloke putting some "sick" looking badge on his car not knowing what it means
