Car weighs the same as my TS. Plus it has LSD split diff and best of all, It was given to me. Car has 135000km's on the clock so the engine is still Very good. Car has been standing for the past 7 years so theres a few things that need attention. Other than that, No rust, new pray job and a very clean engine. Can't ask for more than that.

i am soooooooo jealous Sad Sad Sad

congrats man Exclamation , i had the GSI V6, man what an awesome car
my second fav car right after the calibra, i most def want to own
one of these someday again

that car feels like it ignores gravity and air resistance (under 200km/h that is)

share your plans with it Wink

mmmmmm GM 3800i Bigblock 90° V6
8.5 : 1 compression
290nm @ 3200rpm
130km @ 4800rpm
rev limiter - 5200rpm

180km/h in 5'th just shy of 3300rpm

with the most beautiful note (sounds like a V8 when gunning it)

*drooooooooooooooooooooooool*

Is this the original specs of the engine. I'm actually looking for more info on it. If it's genuinly 8.5:1 cr then the car is gonna get a big blower. Plan was to start work on the car in the next 8 months. Fit single T70 turbo. At low boost should get 250kw +-. Good for low 13 on street tyres. One i've done that, play a bit more with the boost till I find this motors limit. Should be interesting.

the motors suppose to be supercharged, though we got it without the supercharger, hence 8.5 : 1 compression

typical GM SA

Actually, the lsd will make it an ideal candidate for drifting. Just need to increase the power to weight ratio to allow you to do so.

The turbo setup I have planned is rated at 700bhp@1.5bar boost and 590bhp@1bar. I'll be happy if the motor can hold 1bar.
