This guy was speaking so quietly at the start, I wasn’t ready when Ricky edited the vid straight to the the vrx popping flames.. blew my ears off. What a machine👍🏾
1/4 mile in late 12s not quick for that power let’s face it most races are done with in 1/4 miles just look at the 0-60 times and that in the dry 😆 front wheel drive dog shit 4x4 it unleash the engines power
MunroM84 id prefer to own a 300bhp ep3 for sure. I’ve had one before, despite what anyone says. Best experience you’ll get from a n/a engine as a driver
It's always the quite humble guys that build the meanest street demons😂 I'm not an Astra fan at all but I can really appreciate the work that's gone into this build, well done mate👍🏾
Tbh I dont do Vauxhalls ! But this is 1 Vauxhall I would own. What a beast ! Great colour combo and sounds fantastic 👊🔥 at £17k I think this is totally worth every penny.
Nice to see a VXR on here.. and pushing this kind of power too.. awesome!! Imagine pulling up to the lights in this alongside another car.. and the guy in the other car thinks he's got this one in the bag and then the lights turn green.. Lol
@@Dan-ud2jv he should have done an awd conversion then it can stand a chance. But for the money this wins and your not likely to drive a lambo as much as you would drive an astra on a daily basis so think about that
Asif Noaman oh no doubt for the money I’d pick the Astra as it’s an insane car and a lot more fun than the lambo but in terms of 0-60 times and generally being a faster car from a stand still
The gearbox in mine could only just handle stock power, and your telling me this guy froze his and it can handle almost triple stock power? Need to stop filling my freezer with food I think 😂
Love how he says "It smells of oil" 😂😂😂 welcome to the world of a vauxhall, or more to the point welcome to the world of a LET/LEH. If they don't burn, smell, or leak oil then there's something serious wrong 😂😂
I gotta admit I've never liked the Astra VXR but this animal is a thing of beauty, looks absolutely evil, an evil beauty lol . Watching this vid with the headphones on I felt like I was in the car as well lol, sounds totally mental! The owner seems really chilled and humble as well, another brilliant upload Ricky, you never disappoint with your content bro.
Every time I watch this video I get inspired on how I wanna build my volvo c30 such a nasty build and one of my favorite videos from LLF besides the RED FOCUS MK2 with nitrous
Loving the videos great camera work and subjects 👍. Man you’ve got a dirty laugh going on Respect good car channel for a Change Impressed none of that tosh click bait. RESPECT.
I’ve been wanting this on the channel for time man!!!!! Best VXR in the country👀 £17k for this, he’s spent £35k+ on this.. well worth it in my opinion. Imagine it with a 4WD Haldex System from an Evo as well... all that madness to the road with minimal wheel spin would be crazy.
@@4our6ixkwvmz a more traditional awd system. Haldex is the brand name for a product created by Borg Warner for OEMs in late 90s. AWD existed long before
Id rather not. Insignias are best left to the history books. Id rather crawl over a field of used smack heads needles than have any emotion attached to a vauxhall!!
This would be great fun on warmer dry days/nights. Always liked the looks of the H Astra Vxr, the J is so round. The colour of the cage makes the interior, dudes got good taste imo. 👍
Bubba Zenetti how’s that princess 👸 you’ve clearly never driven one so seeing as I own one don’t you think I’d have a better idea than you now go cry into ya pillow little fairy 🧚♀️
Big Daddy Big Daddy you do realise that 700 is more than double than 300, right? Of course there will be tons of torque steering. 700 bhp and fwd don’t go together.
Random Dude did u watch the vid Ricky even said their was a lil bit not what u lot try to make out all u lot do is listen to other ppl instead of driving one and finding out for ya selves sheep 🐑
Superb, biggest EFR turbo, wedged block bigger valves, double springs, full forged, Polished head I do not like, but ok... Is it the original oil pump? Was anything done to crank, or crank bearings? Is it 86, 86,5 or 87 pistons, Wossner, Wiseco or something else? Thumbs up for Gripper LSD!!! Awesome car, great video!. One thing, what is average engine life with this setup if you really use it? Can you do 5000 miles without serious wear to piston rings, how much oil does engine consume on rough driving?
Kinda silly having a full cage and not having it wrapped for head/body protection, seeing you dont wear a helmet on the road that same cage can kill u in an accident. Other than that loving the car n d video 👍🏿👍🏿🏌🏿♀️
Oi Ricky This 703bhp FWD Astra VXR is Next Level The Way These Things Are An Absolute Animal When Tuned and Modified Nicely Like This Example Here What a Weapon I Absolutely Love These VXR's ❤️ Great Video's Man Need More VXR's Back on The Channel Especially This one if Matt's Still Got the VXR 3yrs on Great Video Mate 😊

MK2 astra is best

Yeah. I have also loved this shape since it came out :)
Better put me gearbox in the freezer tonight

Thinking of buying a bulk of m32 gearboxes and sticking them in a chest freezer😂
maybe he meant cold forged?
@@chrissyscott1033 on god
ahaha xD better yet put the whole engine get it all forged xD
This is one of those builds you do in Forza Horizon 4 when you're bored and have millions to spare
Always loved this shape of Astra but never knew you could extract that much power out of them! 🤯🤯🤯

True, he's done well.
Someone needs to do one of the vxr insignias with the awd It would be epic
By far the best front wheel drive car I’ve seen TH-cam. Has so much character 😍

So much character unlike the driver 😂
What sort of mods are you looking at for a 300bhp k20? Also, how high are you revving it to produce that much power?
Na by far not the best fwd, ive seen many Honda's better than this astra

By far the best front wheel drive car on the channel. What a build. Just incredible.
Glad someone finally has got this car on a channel, epic build 👌👌
Imagine doing 195 in a astra jeez
195mph is 315kph. I don't know how it has the gearing for it?
Completed it mate.
