Re: Adams 1.8 LSi Saloon WIP
The C20XE I bought as a potential engine swap for the Cavalier.
Is currently in the tear down / inspection phase.
Once again, I forgot to get pics as I just got on with it.
Must remember to take pics as I go and update the WIP
Pics tomorrow if I remember

A few of my mates do drifting mostly at Teesside autodrome, have yet to try it myself. But i've been a passenger and its pretty good fun, even as a passenger.

Re: Vauxhall Matts
Autoglym (or other brand) interior shampoo, and gentle scrubbing.
Then a wet vac to pull out the loose grit and grime.
You may have to repeamore than once.
Or get the entire car valleted and get the valleter / detailer to clean the matts too.

Looks straight mate.
Assuming it was armed response, does it have the long stroke engine.
That some of the police forces opted for, for some of the RRVs?
Now...... More pics
