  • i miss my gte ........ 1990 grey with rainbow interior, digital clocks were a touch of brilliance ........ fast as fcuk !! corners were for the brave only !!

  • what Astra?:O Kadett -,-"

  • How come the escort isn't sitting in a plume of smoke at the side of the road? And how come the astra hasn't rusted away? And how come they've both not been pinched?

  • @Davidsasuk

    very good engine to fit throttle body's and cam upgrade, 200hp plus.

  • @chris99140 20xe engines have forged internals but the coscast heads are sought after as people fit them too C20LET engines (2.0 16v Turbo engine) as they are less prone to go porous (head failure)

  • @Davidsasuk

    sought after engines are these ones for tuners.

  • @chris99140 early 16v gte had no cats and had a polished and ported coscast cylinder head made by cosworth which made 156bhp

  • why is he driving the MK2, the mk1's were better.

  • @Davidsasuk

    thought the first ones had more than 148.

  • @chris99140 early GTEs had 156bhp
