  1. These still for sale? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. Custom retrimmed fabia seats. Octy ones aren't full leather the centre bit is material and the v badge is embossed in and not coloured
  3. Love a nice cavalier and a mk3 Astra gsi is one of my all time fave cars!! I had the choice of getting a gsi or a rs turbo a few years back and went for the rs but do kind of think I made the wrong choice :( also nearly bought a few cavaliers along the way but they all had the crappy ecotech engines in :(
  4. Exact same seats I had Got them for £100 I think from the scrappy sold them on when I gave the wife the furby as her and the kids would of trashed them
  5. I've had quite a few different setups and I'd recommend decat and a small box. The 0 box system sounded awesome on boost but at idle it sounded like a jet engine and you'll get fed up with people asking if your car is ****ed!! Put a small box in now and best of both worlds, no whistling/blowing noise on idle and still got a nice bark on boost
  6. What does it sound like with a exhaust off of a rs on it?
  7. If it's a cdti it should have the clutch pedal switch and wiring there. Easiest way to tell is take the steering wheel surround off and see if there's 3 or 4 wires going to the indicator stalk. If it's 4 you just need the cruise control indicator stalk.
  8. Decided to get cruise control after finding out the cdti corsas have all the wiring and clutch pedal switch fitted so only needed a indicator stalk and it turning on. Seen the stalks going for upto £50 on the bay so was well chuffed to get one for a tenner!! Went to a guy in sheffield for it turning on for £25 so all done and dusted for £35 which I thought was a bargain. Love having it on makes it such a relaxed drive on the motor way. Also did a oil and filter change and a fuel filter change over the weekend and checked it all out
  9. I had one on but then sold it along with all my goodies when I gave it to the wife. If you want some under bonnet bling get it but I didn't think it did a thing apart from make it hard to change the air filter
  10. Love the 7 and looks stunning in yellow
  11. I forgot you were 5 stud you had the vxr wheels on didn't you? Yeah let us know what the pads are like I might invest in some, how much are they? What is in the kit? I can get the drill rubbing pad thing then is it just the solution?
  12. Is yours 5 stud too? I think mine comes with 280mm standard but I want to upgrade mine with meriva vxr carriers and discs and pads as my callipers will fit those carriers. There are never any merivas being broke for parts though so I really need to ring vauxhall and price the carriers up. Can't remember who he said mapped it, someone in Leeds I think but I drove a combo and astra van with same engine and it does pull a lot better. Anyway I found some pics and took one as a van. Parked up waiting to go and have windows done, last pic as a car Windows been done and name on back Then decided it needed more writing and my number on the sides so took it for that. Also tinted the rear window You can see the marks on the rear window I need to get it done professionally really. Also cleaned my drivers headlight with toothpaste as it was really cloudy. Before After Better but not perfect but for 75p it's worth doing don't know if a headlight restorer kit is worth buying??
  13. I really haven't updated this in ages lol. Found out it has been remapped, the old owner rang my brother in law to see if he could buy it back and he asked him if it definitely was and he confirmed. To be fair it's not too bad but nowhere near as quick as the fabia. Fitted a k&n cone filter and put a irmscher twin round back box on, it's got rid of the owl noise and gives a nice "tish" from the cone filter when you change gear so I'm happy with that. The biggest update though is........ It's now a van I was going to get the metal van panels but they were £160 then I'd have to get them painted etc so instead I want to a sign writing company and had the side windows vinyl'd the same colour as the car and then had the company name and number over it and the name across the back window. The vinyl is slightly darker but not really that noticeable, tinted the back window too but need to get it done properly as there's a few creased around the edges. Put some pirellis on the front, replaced both track rod ends and had tracking done and that's about it. Oh got hid's in now but need to clean my headlights as they're cloudy. You still got a combo?
  14. Seats now sold and look finish off vinayk's fabia perfectly.
  15. Strut brace and RARB went today. Thanks for the interest
