H-400 Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 Hi Damien, welcome! Think you will take the gearbox also, that Record Coupé looks great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robah Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 Love the style of the Rekord C Nice project A pity you don't have the Vauxhall/Opel V6 2.5 to 3.2 available as it would suit the car nicely. You will have to keep us updated on the progress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will have to keep us updated on the progress. I know it's not as good as C20XE and a V6 also would be funnier, but I already had this X20XEV and one spare more engine. Also I would like to use this car as a daily driver and it will be a good compromise with fuel consumption. 1 hour ago, ®evo03 said: Some photos of donor car with xe fitted rwd? Please! And gearbox?

Engine from the Omega is off, I quickly made a stand to work on it and maybe make it run before mouting in the Rekord I also bring back the spare one, it comes from an Astra, I will take the oil sump to make a custom one from it as it is made with steel (Alloy on the Omega ) Edited October 28, 2018 by AIR4 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
