N/A shed to boosting beast


Recommended Posts

just decided to make a build thread of my conversion...

it all started one day not to long ago where i decided to get a glanza :) ...my friend torturedglitch got 1 nd i was like ummm i WANT 1!! :)

hada mk4 astra with a big sound system nd it does my head in now so lookd into gettin a glanza or gt but cant insure 1 so going down the road with lots of headaches

1st i bought dave ashtons engine nd gearbox nd sum other parts from socks big thanxs, then i decided that i might need a shell to put all the parts in lol

so i got this...

after getting that nd finding it reasonably quick it got me itchin to rip it to pieces nd put a turbo in it :(
