Hey guys,so I went and saw my friend yesterday that bought my 1st xe conversion when I found the ts then the ts got written off and I got another kadett and dropped a xe in(current green kadett) anyway my friend didn't have the funds to continue the build so I bought it back for 8k going to keep the green 1 for everyday and build up the white 1 as a turbo toy.so far just stripped out the fuel rail and a few other bits I'm going to replace will upload pics and update as the build goes on,just a pic of how the car is standing in the garage at the moment while I'm doing the stripping

Hey man! Yeah I'm going to keep this 1 standard looking for now doubt I will drop it though a kit might be on the cards later so I need that ground clearence haha they speed bump happy here. I got the original 13's that came on the car but I hate them! Might be swapping the 17's for some ts rims if they in good condition
