Most i ever see is around 20 to 25 upload is always shite.

Been doing some more engine bay detailing today. I have also ordered a fair few new Genuine parts the last week. Headlights/indicators Header tank bottle and new bonnet washer jets. Chrome bonnet stay, Chrome bonnet cable clip and radiator clips. http://i67.tinypic.com/qyiv68.jpg http://i67.tinypic....

I had the omex 600 ecu fitted at the local tuning place.

Thats how they look after bead blasting Dave.

Also i have been thinking about changing my daily Cavaliers setup, My Expression. Its on original springs but i renewed all the shockers about 2 years ago with STD GM items. I'm going to buy Bilstein B4 shockers which are nearly half the price of the b6 items and I'm going to use my 40mm springs fro...

I have Bilstein b6 all round on mine Sam, Its a nice ride for the odd weekend bit of fun but i would not want to use the car everyday. Also tyres make a huge difference, I have yokohama ad048s and they have made the ride even harder and alot of tyre noise but the grip is mental.

What Tyres you going for..Something as tasty!?

What setup do you have on there now? Anything uprated will make the ride harsher. Most of the cheap shocker & springs setups off ebay are terrible, All my old items went in the bin LOL

Straight replacements mine are yes, No idea on the GAZshockers i had them on a Mini once. Never looked into them for the Cavalier tho.

Get some eibach springs & bilstein b6 dampers or similar quality setup. Its what i have on mine and it rides very nice indeed. The whole setup set me back just under £500!

Use GM stuff wherever available !

Not watching it till i have finished watching the old x-files, On S09E14

I've only had this on SORN since just before the new year and i want it back on the road already!

Had some very nice tyres fitted also before the sorn..Yokohama A048 in 195/60/14 they are bloody brilliant and they look the business.

Moted for another 12 months, 2 small bits of welding had to be done this year. I knew it needed doing last year really but its done now.

Not really done alot this week. I'm going to pick some parts up tomorrow from someone off the FB fan page. This Cavalier may end up getting my Red Cavalier diesels engine swapped in at some point. If its not raining after i get back i will start taking the seats & door cards out ready for the le...

Keep at it, Loads of work still to do by that list.

Yes one of the drain plugs is missing. Looks like it's been damaged at some point. The hole underside was covered on mud. What's on the floor is nothing I had half a bucket full it was all bone dry before I started. This car must of been nearly mint before it was parked up 6 years or so ago. Still i...

Some general cleaning shots showing the condition of the car. The fuel filler will need some attention at some point, Overall not bad really for how long its been sitting on mud for. some areas need a clean up and paint which will be done before its on the road. http://i67.tinypic.com/20l08l3.jpg ht...

Update time, Engine BAY! Umm mice or Rats? Good job i have a good one to replace it with. http://i66.tinypic.com/1hxuza.jpg http://i65.tinypic.com/s32ahh.jpg http://i63.tinypic.com/14iexsm.jpg http://i64.tinypic.com/16kaxl5.jpg http://i64.tinypic.com/ehjhiq.jpg Still the engine to do and bulkhead.

Looks a nice shell from them photos.. Top work!

Not really done alot with all this rain. Spent a few hours late this afternoon cleaning the door shuts of all the mug and slugs, Took both wheels off on the drivers side took me about 20 mins to get them off. Jet washed under the arches and boot area its looking very good under there.. Still loads t...

And lord knows what gubbins is in there to require two batteries and all that heavy cabling... :shock: Large Soundsystem? Yes i think it did have. Its got a 2nd battery in the boot and all types of wiring and some infinity speaker type things behind the first aid area.. Its had lights added into th...

Haha. I will show you all tomorrow. Its nuts.. If you notice it has a small extra aerial on the roof. It also has another battery in the boot boxed in for some reason. Note the black box thing by the battery too. Loads of small electrical things have been added.. :o I'm just going to rip the lot out...

From what i could see under the rear end it looks very good. The sills and doors show no rust scabs, Inside the boot is all good and behind the rear bumper each side. Fuel filler cap is rust free under the seal etc. Its done 71k miles. Real inspection will come next week when i start stripping the i...

Picking this up tomorrow 28/12/15. Its been sitting here since 2009. Plans are full leather swap that i have from my diesel. Along with wheels,brakes,springs etc. SRi side skirts and boot spoiler, colour coded mirror covers painted & n/s rear quarter painted because of lacquer peel. Should make ...

I wont be having the Belmont its just way to much work welding and paint wise. Still having the Cavalier. Going to pick it up some time next week. They guy also has a few other cars sitting around one of them is another old Vauxhall. A 1992 Astra Saloon 'turbo' diesel in red.. Started right up with ...
