Opel GT from Belgium
« on: March 11, 2015, 04:28:18 PM »
Hello everybody,
My name is Tony,i live in Belgium,near Antwerp.
I own a dark grey 2008 Opel GT.
The car already has a few power mods :downpipe with 100 cell sportscat,RPI exhaust,Dejon intercooler and Hahnworks BOV.Tuning by EDS-320hp.
For looks  it 's got a corvette steering wheel,rear spoiler and diffusor.
Also 20"custom fit wheels.
After driving it for a year,i woud like to add a little more power.
I hope to learn from the knowledge at Kappa Performance
Greetings

Tony

Welcome on board, Tony.

Isn't Corvette steering wheel standard on a Kappa? I have an '8 Z06 and it shares the same steering wheel as my '8 GXP.

The corvette steering wheel is flattened on the top and bottom,and it feels a bit thickker than the GT's does.


I'll try to post pictures in the weekend

I think that is an upgraded/custom vette steering wheel, not the factory one which is 100% as ours.

Is almost Friday in Belgium, so where are the pictures? :)

You have to be a paid member to post directly.

Otherwise you can upload to a sharing site (e.g. Photobucket) and post links to them there.

Weren't most Opel GTs black?

I like those wheels, that's a sharp looking car.
