Girl power fully built Astra Vxr  

Thank you so much mate really appreciate it 🙌🏼

I’m 100% behind you on that mate but still an M140i with 634nm must be still pretty insane have you still got it?

@@Vinnievxr666 I had it like that for 4 years, but last November, after 90 mins of hooning round the countryside in traction off mode, sideways everywhere, I was coming home at normal traffic speeds, and as I accelerated away from a roundabout with about 1/2 throttle, I hit a patch of diesel and the car went sideways, which I held fine. But as I came off the slippy onto the grippy tarmac, the car spat me round 180 in a microsecond, I couldn't do a thing about it. Backwards off the road at 50mph into a tree. Car was a write off, it creased the C pillar and rippled the roof. Bit gutted, but I'm now rolling in an OG M2, which is slower in a straight line, but on another level for everything else.

@@DjNikGnashersno sorry to hear that mate I know what they are like we’ve got a E92 M3 and i love driving that lol What is yours M2 running at the moment?

@@Vinnievxr666 I got it in December last year when the insurance paid out for the M140i. It was a 1 owner from new (lady owner), with FSH, and 25,800 miles on. It is totally standard, and I think I'm going to keep it that way, as it seems too good and too original to mod, plus the N55 doesn't respond to tuning in the same way the B58 does. It needs a few little bits to get it how I want it ie absolutely mint, but it's not too far off now. i.imgur.com/oqyfw9C.jpg

The only Vauxhall I would say that’s easy to get that sort of power without forging is the Vectra VXR. Which has been proven many times to push between 600-700BHP in stock internals

Thanks so much Mate. And yeah it was kind of awkward sometimes.🤣 but yeah, she was a very down to earth Car girl definitely she knew her stuff 👌🏼

@Vinnievxr666 does make things easier to talk about doesn't it! If she hadn't got a clue, would of made it a lot harder for you. Look forward to the next installment to the series

Yes it definitely is and thank you mate 👍🏼

First of all a big thank you to the wife 🙌🏼👍🏼 and yes mate, she has done well with it I can’t imagine how much she’s put into this You can guess it’s probably a lot

@@Vinnievxr666 Your welcome Vinnie & its now a sub from me Yaz.

Is the engine being wedged like the MK2 focus ST having a block mod?

@@trophy182 yes mate, it is quite similar

Thank you, Mate 👍🏼

Thank you so much mate really appreciate it👌🏼👍🏼

If he’s up for it I am 👍🏼

@@ashleesummerbailey yeah I’m definitely up for that

Yeah mate, it is isn’t it 👍🏼

💯👌🏼🔥🔥

Thank you so much Mate and yes, she has done well with it And yes I do like my Fords as well mate What one have you got? 👍🏼

@@Vinnievxr666 yeah she has mate the car sounds unreal 😀 I’ve got a mk2 focus st

@@scottwilson7927mk2 focus ok have you done much to it mate and what bhp is it running?

@@Vinnievxr666 Im still on the stock turbo at the min the engines forged with the usual mods gonna upgrade the turbo soon either the rs unit or big turbo set up 😀

Yes mate she has done well with it 👌🏼

you know I look good in pink 🤣 thank you mate really appreciate it 🙌🏼

Let’s keep this respectable for the lady. Please 🙏🏼👍🏼

Thank you so much Mate and yes it is a front wheeled car Great fun to drive lol 👍🏼

@@Vinnievxr666 torx steer must be fun 😆

Hello mate, I’m not too sure the name of it I’ve got it from Epidemic Sound trying to find out for you

Yes It is and I know it sounds funny and I’m very happy with my sexuality but I do like it 👍🏼

Like she said 6 rebuilds already

​@@christaylor1753probably 66 rebuilds

Hello mate, yeah that’s not a problem. Basically the top end of the engine block has got waterways where the head gasket goes, and what they do, is they get a bit of the same material as of the engine and wedge it in the waterways just to make it stronger so act as if it’s a close deck block mate

@Vinnievxr666 ohhh okay so it's like when focus st get a blockmod and they put shims between the liners to stop them from cracking

@@Focusstmk2.5 yeah mate that’s exactly that 👍🏼

@@Focusstmk2.5 what bhp is yours run? And whereabouts are you located mate

@Vinnievxr666 I've not got a vxr mate I have a focus

Hello mate, I’m not too sure who it’s from, but there is a guy on Vxr Owners Club who makes them

Yeah, definitely a good build mate we need to get yours on the channel if you’re up for it 🙏🏼

@Vinnievxr666 definitely up for it, mate, but you know how it is always something going on. I'll let you know when's a good time asap

@@vxr_greenmachine yeah I fully understand mate and please do I’m ready when you are 💯🔥

It's a 6 paddle clutch and ttv solid flywheel. It's built to be driven 😅

Yeah it had a fuel pump issue several years ago. Went undiagnosed until a decent mapper diagnosed it

@ashleighearl25 Well, you obviously love your car enough to of done all that work so fair play. I do have a soft spot for the VXR, but I'd never own one after my nightmare of a corsa 🙄 I stick with jap 😁

Yeah, now she’s got the swell pot done she should be running 500bhp very soon and sometimes you gotta go through a lot of crap to get to your happy place that’s the Z20 life 🤣
