My next step for my car

Hi

I have been lucky enough to meet someone that has a Z32SE for sale

. Now i was wondering since i dont have the loom and ecu for that motor and it also uses a drive by wire throttle can i use my motronic 2.8.1 on it with my vectra b intake ? . I got a new ecu and everything is working 100% on the 2.5 just need to make sure my multiram valves are connected to the right plugs because i think the top one closes at high speed and the bottom one opens , but if i can fit that 3.2 i think it will be even more fun to drive

. Im getting 41.5 mpg

so mutch better than my old 4 pot

Thank You

Looks like a home made Diy jobbie, But as long as it works.
try and overtake that on the motorway.
is the corsa not a tad to light for that much power?

Just payed my deposit on the motor , as soon as i have it then i can start to swap bits over and put up some pics .

Update time .

The z32se with the x25xe rocker covers yesterday morning .

We started the car last night just need to do a small modification on the front downpipe but other than that its 100%

Thanks for all the help and info

Does anyone have more info on the F18+WRD gearbox ?

Thank You

the 3.0v6 corsa's are an utter joke seen one at the Prestigious Cheltenham Cruise

and it handled like a boat too much weight over the front end cant do J/S with one i think a well maintained V6 Vectra/Omega would muller one as when they take off they nothing but wheelspin

The Vectra manifold isnt as good as the omegas it causes flat spots

Better off with a C20LET / Z20LET in a corsa TBF nice and light more power than a V6 will ever be able to provide and will blow most things away off the lights
