Opel Omega wagon / Daily driven project

[Raka_blakk]

WELL! the engine is dead.... rattle rattle bang bang and now it wont turn over, you can hear a loud bang when it turns over a little bit....

Who knows when its going on the road again, i just aint got the money to put it on the road, needs alot of work and it might turn into a drifting car... see you guys soon hopefully

last 4 post with this one is from me... well good news or 3 good things!! the replacement omega is way better then i thought, i havent looked at the floor but rust aint got nothing on me!

OrangeBlue - you jelly?


its with TUV

1st - My new daily driver! this summer

1965 Opel Rekord Olympia

Its in good shape and i can use it this summer, got the plates in the car and waiting for new pads and discs and drum parts, its a 1.7 engine with 60hp, the gears are behind the wheel and theres only 4 including reverse, i might lover it in the rear and put hijackers on since it came with the car, it wont get a Stance look, but more Gasser look


2nd - The new omega!

19??somethingidontremember :P
Well its a A1 with an automatic transmission which will do for now, it doesnt start but how hard can it be! alot of extra equipment and just the rust you can see on the pictures, its done 168.000km which is nothing... i got the plans ready for it, and i want to keep it a secret and suprise you guys







3rd - the wagon might live on!

After the launch of Wrapstyle i've been hanging alot at their place since all the employes are new good friends of mine, so i asked their design and wraper AKA "HaxoResc" here at Stanceworks to photoshop a A1 wagon..

[OrangeBlue]

Wow dude i tought you were all kinds of down...

Good to here from you!

I might be jelly about that steering wheel, it's made by raid, right?

But i'm suer jelly about the rekord, i need to dig out a pic i saved..,
will like it...

The sedan looks good, make sure to adress the rust as soon as you can.
Do you plan to do some aero stuff?
And what wheels, air or coils, tell me!!!

That warp looks cool, so you're keeping the wagon?

Make sure to update this thread!

Thanks man!!

It says made in italy on the back and irmscher on the front, it doesnt fit as i hoped in the wagon, i need like 6cm adapter since its way to close the indictator hand...

Find the picture im excited!

i've been working alot on the rekord lately, plates are on and i've manage to get a hold on some old type hijackers, you can fill them up with the same tool you fill your tires with, so every station have it, i just need to remove a blade so the car gets lower, i might make a vid been using the last few days on making it run as good as it can, the ignition was fucked and it was only running on 2 cylinders, just did the normal routine of plugcable and plugs, got some silicone plugcables on now, but will change that for copper




The sedan! well making it run and checking the floor properly is the first im going to do, but when i was looking at it, there was no rust where the spare tire is, and they usualy rust there, and the rear arch is solid, it didnt crack when i "tried" to bend it...

Theres not alot i want to say, i really want it as a BOOM! but i can say static suspension, 8.5 & 9.5 and some irmscher parts

the wagon is still on hold, i dont have any place i can put it, the rekord is going to take the garage when the snow starts falling down

Ah memories....

That Toyota got a 1.3 turbo...

[Raka_blakk]

PICTUREMARATON!

Well im just adding stuff to it, making it ready for a MOT? well its a control you have to take every 2nd year, pretty stupid really... but yeah

PICS!


washed it




And my lovely friend HaxoResc did a photoshop on how he would have it(I HAD SOME TO DO WITH IT haha)

[mrNitroSleeper]

No way! that Astra next to Omega looks like it has those fckin' headlight washers... It's probably a pre facelift grille tho...?

[Raka_blakk]

i honestly havent thought about that astra! i have got some attention about the grill you wanted though just waiting for one in very good shape

[Raka_blakk]

Time for a update!

ehm the white omega is on hold (again) theres alot going on and i can't pay bills and work with cars, being without a job taking a beating on me....

but i've manage to get a new car, i traded the Opel rekord for a Toyota Carina
the plan is to use the original engine as far as it goes (i suspect rod knocking) i've started to get a rumour on me that i kill engines, i just like high RPM if the engine blows up i WILL trade it for a M20B20(or 25) or even M50 if so, i've been told that Nissan Laurel spindle and lower control arm, and a ball joint from toyota soarer and it should fit with the VW jetta coilovers or 200SX coilovers in the rear its easy as shit, just replace the original damper with the coilover and remove the spring, i also need a new rear axel, so Laurel does have a good one from 2.4(Six) which should take the power of the M20, i dont know about the axel though, might do a laurel axel which i cut and make shorter, wow thats alot of writing well time for pics before and after photoshop thx HaxoResc again

How much I would like this Toyota slammed I'd really appreciate you getting your hands back on the omega, its just cool(er)

Think that grille is from Omega 3000. That white is some weird edition of omega. It has also 3000 wing on back.

But Rakka, u made a good job here. (Y)

The toyota was suppose to have bags infront (got some from E39 wagon) and static in rear but i might sell it because i have got my hands on a new omega!!!


The grill is the same as the 3000 had, the new omega is EXACTLY the same as the white so i dont think its a "edition" its more "extra equipment" to raise the sales, but it has spoiler and grill on a A1 body, its a GL (the white is CD) and its a 1988!!! and as every omega fan know, it came with the good old C20SE engine and manual, update on that soon!! 130hp baby! haha

Thank you Anvarv





i love the colour so much, its the same colour as this! its the most beautiful omega A1 i know of!

[Anvarv]

What kind of rims u have in front and rear?
Really like the first ones.

Not my car, but the colour is the sam. i would say its the prettiest A1 omega ever! but in the front there are Irmscher rims???? please correct me if im wrong, but im pretty sure i've seen a picture with Irmscher writting on them, the rear are Rial rims i think, i've only seen them on Mercedes's so i dont know if they come in 5x110...

[Raka_blakk]

well i can update on the wagon, its been taken apart as soon as i get the new omega. there are sooome useful stuff on it, like driveshaft, diff, some interior stuff and frontsuspension and the big 296mm brakes

its so sad looking at it, gonna miss it very much









^ This is the plan for the new omega can't wait to get it home
