Very nice indeed [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

Very nice indeed, it woould look much better with a standard MV6 spoiler in the back and without the silver intake.

Tasty lookin motor

Big Steve · « **Reply #6 on:** 14 October 2006, 21:38:56 »

The spoiler is from LMF, just wanted something a bit differant. As for the air intake that came with
the Viper, just put it on for now untill i can find something better. Might get something made if i can find
a good prefraber.

No more plans to mod this year, maybe thinking of some kind of bonnit vent to help keep the engine cool, looking to replace the steering wheel for the one with the walnut surround to match the dash,
stainless steel sill plates with omega logo. But getting mod parts for these cars is near impossible or costs hundred's of pounds.
Will be taking it to Courtnay sport next year to get a remap & a 4 bar regulater fitted

Looks like you have an Irmscher front grill. Shame the Vauxhall 'V' messes it all up!

Apart from that, looks bloody nice! 8-)

What do you mean its a Shame the Vauxhall 'V'messes it all up, is this not the "Vauxhall Omega Gallery"

supermop · « **Reply #10 on:** 16 October 2006, 09:21:09 »

It is indeed. But you either have a standard front grill or the Irmscher debadged grill. He seems to be wanting both

I'm just young and nit-picky on things like that though lol

I would spend the money on some 3.0 cams.....much better power upgrade and guaranteed to actualy do something and not just get a talked up Courtney figure!

my last miggy was a 1999 elite, that had an identical grille (fitted as standard) - looked the same except for the irmscher badge (which may have been retro-fitted?) - complete with the 'V' ...

couldn't the intake pipe have been sited behind the front grille (as per the normal setup), looks in an ideal spot to scoop up water at present ... nice wheels though

not sure about the V6 badges on the side though

That is how it came to me, bought it from a bloke at a show last year who had just replaced his with the same but with a crome surround, he must have put the irmsher logo on.
The 100mm pipe would not go to the same place to tight, so had to put it there for now.
Try not to take it out in the rain.

Where would you get the cams from & how much would they cost.

Barstewards, not to bad round by me, although some tw*t punched my drivers side mirror out when Englad went out of the World Cup.

Nice clean motor you have there, and by the way it just so happens I have a mate that has a brand new irmscher walnut steering wheel, if you are interested let me know.

Jim · « **Reply #22 on:** 30 October 2006, 17:46:33 »

Yes it is, but since i had it fitted & sprayed the speed humps (Of witch there are many in my area) have done there best to remove most of the paint from under the frount of the car

I would prefer the standard spoiler too, and that intake looks well out of place, otherwise - what a stunner, it is a credit to you.

Do you have any pictures of what the vents look like on your car.

Nice wheels & spoiler - don't like the inlet

I'm sure I've seen this car before at the BTCC weekend at Croft - probably a couple of years back - might even have a photo somewhere. Great to see it's still in outstanding condition, it's a credit to you.

I'ts not very suttle is it, hoping to replace it with a pair of proper intake's that are made for this car soon.

I may have been there, i try to get to as many event's & shows as possible. I even raced it around castle coombe about 2 years back ( scared the hell out of me ) I try to keep it looking nice, it took a few hours to get it that good in the picture's, will try & keep on top of it thank's mate

I personally like the intake. I love the thought of raw power at the cost of looks. I want one!
