Excellent info as usual Robsey, cheers!
I wonder what triggers the yellow low level fuel light and then the red light?

Hi all,

Does anyone know wheres the easiest to find a signal for the fuel sender level unit?

I think from memory its a BLUE/BLACK wire?!

Thanks.

Rather nicely done. So no standard ECU's and moved over to a the link module? Would love to know more about the wiring side of it Cavalier ECU from the 2.0 8v and 8v engine loom all gone out of the car. The link ecu sits where the standard ecu is to the right of your feet at pedals in behind the tr...

Well lads.. Dyno complete! She made 340bhp and it goes like a bat outta hell

It did and it didn't... (Eye catch the power steering). I saw the powered rack still fitted with it's rigid pipework, but totally failed to notice the missing reservoir. Inside the glove-box? A popular place to move the ABS unit if it isn't totally deleted. A good meaty battery for the Cavalier - t...

Welcome back fella - :wave Without putting a morose tint on things, any one of us could have gone to the Vauxhall showground in the sky before now, but I am sure just like me, you would say " You don't get rid of me that easily". :P I do like that shade of metallic red - very reminiscent ...

Well.... It has been a LONG time and Robsey probably assumed i was dead by now, but honestly between work, this project etc i just havent been on here to do an up to date thread. I can however confirm that this will be the last full on project like this lol. As its been what maybe 2 years now since ...

Hi all, I am for doing the B204 conversion to my cavalier. I bought a automatic car with good history as i knew then it was messed or rallied about in. But the problem is im having a real hard time finding a F28 gearbox which is COMPLETE. As in with the gear linkage attached to the box and then the ...

Hi all. Sorry for no updates on this thread. Been flat out with work etc ever since and just never really sat down to upload anything else to this thread since. Well the cav passed the MOT first time! Her first MOT since 2009. The MOT tester was very impressed with her condition underneath etc, said...

Hi. Thanks for the info Robsey and James. :thumb I dont think it matters about the radio now robsey as the bloody pixels on the 3rd and 4th digits are missing pieces lol. This wee unit pops out though. I wonder is it fixable just to keep it original. Anyways update is i hooked a wee electric fuel pu...

Also is anyone good with the standard radio codes? I disconnected the battery and its gone. Woops. Asking for code now

Thanks lads. The stage 3 buff really awakened the true colour of her again. There seems to be a bit of glitter in the colour when the sun is out.. I took the rubber floor matts out to give them a clean and theres Vauxhall badges stamped on them? Ive never seen these before just the rare carpet vauxh...

Thanks James and co.

Well today i got a right bit done.

Oil, oil filter, fuel filter, air filter, spark plugs and leads.

Also wind deflectors, sunroof bubble and Arrows fitted!

Now shes looking noice.



Thanks

10/4/21 Update Now that the 17" Momo Arrows have their new tyres on, all that was needed was a set of fresh centre caps to finish them off. So got these put on earlier and slicked the tyres awaiting the cav which is getting a full stage polish by a mate at this moment. https://i.ibb.co/MMXXgmL/...

The 17" Momo Arrows are TIRED.

Thanks. Ilovedmymantas i have to save up for the back 2 lol. No, its just i dont like them on the back windows for some reason. I think just the front 2 with nice deep deflectors is better looking. Im in no rush yet to do all this. It will just be a matter of getting bits and pieces as the weeks go ...

bit of an update on the C20NE 8v Turbo route.. I have since found someone with a turbo technics turbo kit for this engine from back in the day.. and its for buttons. All the main bits are there, exhaust manifold, downpipe, turbo itself, oil feed line, oil return and tapped sump for return line. The ...

Hi lads. Got the Arrows back today, they turned out awesome. Like brand new again. Just waiting on my 205/40/17 Toyo Proxes tyres coming in and then i got vauxhall centre cap badges to go on also. The sunroof bubble and front wind deflectors landed in the post also which was a nice surprise also. ht...

Hi all, Ive been doing a bit of reading on the C20NE and C20XE engines. The blocks are meant to be the same. For power would i be better off using my low mileage C20NE block and fitting a redtop head to it? Are the looms different? The ECUs will be different im sure. Then XE intake manifold. Gearbox...

The B204 engine that comes with the saab box FM55-501 uses cable and would be a good strong box also easier to fit. Should all go strsight in cav from what ive read before.

Thanks lads!
Ah im not sure what to do. The V6 lump is really good in my opinion. Really makes a cavalier shift AND its n/a

I would however want to keep the 4 studs. I shall see. If Ian wants to sell me his V6 hatch it would be a great swap indeed as all is there needed to do it.

Hi all, Im back again. Well it didnt take long for me to get my hands on another cavalier. Having sold my V6 cav back in August last year, i actually did regret it due to the spec, engine and overall condition it was in and me and dad both said never get one like it again now. Months went past anywa...
