Crikey, good job pal. Is this the old toothpaste trick? ![Smile :) :)](/styles/default/xenforo/vbSmilies/Normal/smile.gif)

Nice, upgrading seats can massively change how the car feels to drive!
And I assume they are the same as ATR seats which are lovely to sit in!
Bet they cost you a few quid though?
Do like!

Torque steer, it really is as bad as they say
Steering, felt numb and unconnected
Exterior, dull and uninspiring
Interior, dull and ininspring
It's an Astra
It's a Vauxhall
Caught in the monent I really did have fun and almost convinced myself I preferred it to a Type-R. However you soon realise much of the fun is the fact that youre fighting the torque steer and numb steering, coupled with understeer and a chassis that doesnt inspire confidence.
Conclusion, I can see the attraction but for those who have experienced better handling perfornance cars will not be convinced by the sole party trick of a 2.0 Turbo strapped to an undeserving chassis.
I'm confused? Surely it's a no brainer after what you wrote above? Trust me, the Turbo novelty will wear off, especially when you realise you can't make the same progress as you can in the Civic.Cant believe Im saying this, especially after the above post I made but Im having a fight with myself...
2007 Civic Type-R GT with 19" Rage alloys + GP kit
Or
2008 Vauxhall Astra VXR Nurburgring Edition
Something about that VXR test drive keeps drawing me back, so so fun. Though I still think the Civic is the better overall package. Aghhh, cant decide![]()
Managed to grab some mint premier edition recaros.
Loads better than the standard ep3 seats.
Very happy indeed
To those with an S2K, how many miles per tank do you get? A friend of mine is asking as he is torn between the S2K and GT86/BRZ.
