just went for a drive in a 1992 holden calibra 16v , 2 litre or something n/a. i was rather impressed for a front wheel drive n/a car.

the ratios are fairly similiar to the r33...., within reason :P , well 1st and 2nd felt quick anyhow :) ,

does anyone know where i can get the specs for this 'beast'

ive looked around at clubcalibra.com and stuff but couldnt find anything and also holden and opel....anyone have any fast links or knowledge about these cars?..

thanks

oh god, i know but i was saying that basically it is the fastest 4cyc i had been in. and that the gear ratios appeared similar to the r33. 60km/h in 1st gear isnt to bad and not red lining, around 100 in 2nd gear not red lining isnt too bad either..

they are certainly better then any lancer, hyundai. my old lancer would do nothing near this, 1st gear would only get to around 30km and that was driving it hard!!.

i know they arent as quick as our cars, maybe not horus' :)

I was just interest in their specs to see what sort of power the produce.

its alright though i'll keep looking. :P

specs...

make: opel

engine: pissweak

cylinders: not enough

power: dont make me laugh

0-100kmh: got a minute?

0-400m: im not waiting all day

class: hairdressers car

well... i might be a little off on a few things but i think thats about it.

:)

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
