Hello All,

Sorry for the late response (away on work etc.). Thanks for all the warm welcomes. Looking forward to learning lots about these cars and they engine / transmissions combos.

I am especially interested in Omega Diesel tuning modifcations. More on that later.

Cheers,

Ian B.

Hello,

I joined the Omega Owners Forum to find out information about the Omegas and this site seems to have a lot of great info. I am based in Japan (work), so there are not too many Omegas around here, but I like all things Opel, especially the Diesels. I do not own an Omega at the moment.

I am very intersted in the engines and transmissions the Opel (Omegas) use as I also like inline 6 cylinder diesel engines, either petrol or diesel. My most recent car has been a Nissan Terrano 4x4 Diesel 2.7 DTi, (4 Cyl) but I am not really a 4WD person. The economy was average as the Terrano is pretty heavy and 100 BHP is asking a bit much to pull it around.

The nick is from a car bought back in the early 90s when I lived in the US for a year - a Southern  1972 Plymouth Satellite w/ 400 CI 4-BBL (6.6L) to rod around in and which I drove across country twice. The car got 15 Highway MPG on a good day and to fill it up cost $20 for 20 Gallons (back then). I had a ball with that thing and all my extra cash went into the tank. But I blame that on being young and clueless :-)

I am very interested in the technical details of the Opel (BMW) 2.5 TDs and all aspects of TD performance / tuning for this engine family.

Cheers,

Ian B.
