really impressed with your project mate:y: keep up the good work:y:

alot of work to do mate but im sure it'll be well worth it

looking good so far, someone on the astra forum has been doing a Rear wheel drive conversion and sticking a 6.0L V8 pontiac engine in it, check it out http://www.astraownersclub.com/vb/sh...ad.php?t=71689

good stuff that steve :y:

hi all thanks for your comments so far :y: ill upload some pics tomorrow as i cant find my lead for my phone. but ive taken everything back off the car now as its all been fitted. i bought some heat proof sealer for on the welds to stop them rust then painted all under the car. ive cut the boot floor for the shock mounts ive just gotta finish them off then paint them.then start fitting everything back in.and ive started running the wires for the ecu. and iam 90% done on the manifold for the turbo. ive been thinking of spraying the car black with black wheels with dimond cut edges round the wheels. and some crome calipers what do you think. i dont really want it a show car as long as its fast and looks ok but i dont want to drive round in a shed :P .
adam

good stuff

Jeez man thats ace, that astras awesome too, i just dont get how you guys can do all this stuff lol, i stuggle getting my wheels off some times :sad:

heres a few pics froma few days ago. ive got all the back end done now ill upload some more pics but ive gotta delete some crap off my phone first lol.
ill start putting up pics now everythings getting finished and sprayed.
adam

painted the gearbox


this was all the wire for the megasquirt ecu


this was the moc up to get all the measurements for the shocks


this is the tunnel with the heatproof tape ive sealed it then put the tape on to make sure no fumes or crap gets in the car but ive sealed all the under side anyway. ive gotta knock the dent out it was free steel so it had a few knocks and dents here and there.


this was the trail fit of the back end

good stuff mate :y:

nice pics mate, steve just take over the thread.... :P

good progress thread mate:y:

looks an awsome project mate cant wait to see it finished

ive just bought a audi 1.8 turbo engine 250bhp :P :P :P :P :P iam just sorting out the plate to mate it to the box watch this space.:P
adam

wow turbo motor.its the only way to go on a project lik this tbh.they are very tunable,300bhp is not hard to achieve.now imagine that in a rwd saxo lol

that should be fun :y:

awesome mate cant wait to see this complete

i no the updates are a bit crap at the moment but most of what iam doing is trail and error. but it is all coming together. heres a teaser of whats going in the engine bay.the engine is already rwd and turbo so i havent gotta mess about with the zetec putting loads of money into it. as the audi engine is already to bolt in then just wire the ecu up and get it running.
adam

sweeeeeeeet!

any more updates on this yet??

mate, this is looking better and better by the minute! Keep it up dude.
