@@TheZacdes Looking at my data logs, 2nd gear 60mph is at 6770rpm. I believe the standard rev limiter is at 6600rpm (with redline on the dial at 6500rpm). Some remaps will increase the rev limit slightly, but there isn't really anything to be gained. Power falls off pretty rapidly, as the standard cams and inlet manifold are really designed to strong midrange torque, not top end. 4th gear is good for 125mph @ 6500rpm. 5th is 157mph at 6500rpm (calculated; never hit that speed).
I have an Rs6, Vr6, 700r raptor, 330ci and few more shots. My fav car out the lot is the GSi Astra which I’ll never sell. Hats off to this guy on this build
love these cars. Iv had mine over 6 years now and its mental fast with over 500hp. They are alot of fun to drive. Hats off to the owner its a minter 👌🏾
Best car on the channel so far!!!! Nice to see these cars built well with the best parts and hats off to you for getting it on the channel rather than all the new modern German stuff, get a big spec astra h vxr on the channel!
Yeah because most are owned by muppets who just abuse them and haven't got a clue, mine never missed a beat at that power bar a turbo at 65k but that's just wear and tear
Truly agree I had a 307 bhp silver gsi sunroof model and wished I'd never sold it 2 years ago it had the full works from walbro fuel pump to fully forged and c20let fast road clutch plus all the other mods, it's sadly missed.
I bought a mint GSi in standard form then took it to 240bhp and even that was enough to entertain the newest hot hatches of the time! This must feel pretty powerful in comparison, the surge as it gradually increases having such a linear map will feel mint.
Sick bro! This one and all of your vids are all on point the enthusiasm is sick along with the individual owners all have there own personality and reflects in there cars they love!
Clearly not the best off the line but once moving acceleration is ASBO mental. Great car and I really liked these after I had my 1992 modded 16v SRi Red Top Cavalier. Would be great to see a modded Cavalier or Calibra Turbo on the channel.
I love that car, in Spain they are not Vauxhall, here the brand is Opel, I love to see cars of this type and this seems to me one of the best UA-cam channels
At 250 bhp over stock and stripped out i would be gutted with 6.8 sec to 60. Stock i think these were 7 sec dead. Certainly some better tyres needed. Great video tho Jamie as always.
@@simonwatson7494 Be fair! One run, bulk wheelspin, and anyway, its only a figure:/ It hardly reflects the real power and acceleration ability of this beast!

I get the idea of a linear map, progression etc so as it’s easier to live with etc but I’d rather it pull like a train in a massive surge with lag and be an absolute handful, I’d enjoy driving it more like that
It’s very linear but come on I agree with this man but where is the fun in that I mean going fast like that isn’t exciting it just makes me want to go even faster the next time and the next no wonder people aren’t satisfied with the amount of power needed to propel a car forward I think people just like how dramatic a car can be when it is built to a certain point🙌🙌
@@HoweDoYouDo1999 The big torque surge you get in the midrange with a Z20LEx is a lot of fun, but being realistic they're not a wonderfully handling chassis (and I say that as an owner of a GSI). There's basically nothing available in terms of adjustable lower arms, roll centre correction kits, anti-lift etc, like you can find in the aftermarket for lots of other cars. Every lowered GSI, will have poor suspension geometry, and a weird camber curve. Still a shit load of fun to drive though!
I too like the astra Gsi mk4's, don't see many around nowadays so they stand out from the crowd. I've Had my Sri turbo 190 (same car but rarer ) over 15 years now but i still love it
@Mark Singleton yes and my focus ST is a lot better to drive and way faster than my astra 190 but the point being its a rare car now days you'll Never see another one on the road and still look nice. Ps same bhp
@Mark Singleton ye I know mate, but when mine went to the dealer to get serviced when it was probably 2 years old they said that they had updated the software ie put the Gsi map on it!! I Had it health checked on a rolling road a few years ago and it was 206 bhp. its still totally standard so happy 😊 days
The Mighty Z20LET or was when it was born lol. Power!. I have a Z20LET but i can only dream about this kind of power. 230bhp tops. To get his kind of power you need bigger intercooler, bigger turbo,3 inch exhaust,forged pistons and a few maps of England.
I was really enjoyed all, but.. 8:30.. 8:50 .. yeah, that feeling when you finally feel what it is all about it 🤭 thanks guys, that was mint.. great car 👌
With a proper launch and working out what RPM the wheels spin up this motor would defo do 5 sec+!!! Into 2nd it got bogged down a lot, so hed easily waste that time he done (although standing starts are clutch killers!)
Great upload came through really clear concidering the mad noise ! Really nice car looks & snds lary scarey New subsriber so got a few uplods to get through ! .
Thumbs up for the car and the owner. But.. please do not get mad at me, but bit more driving skill would be great when you build such nice car. Great video.

Your dad pulling out, unfortunately.

Is that Ali-A?
NH11 HAHAHA REALLY DOES LOOK LIKE HIM TOO OMG😂😂
If it was ali-a this would be a fake gsi tho
Not Ali A, not ali b, not Ali c, not Ali d, not Ali E, not Ali F but Ali G
Looks like a well built motor and superb condition. I have an Arden vxr so always enjoy seeing a G or H on a good channel 👍
8:50 was defo 70mph 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Perfect how to give him sweaty palms lmfao !!

Great vid, fella and Car .. gratz on the 20k subs... Love people that build up a slighty older car and create something specail .. hats off.
Love how my man just sits in the car while listing the spec , poor Jamie breaking his back 🤣🤣
this car looks absolutely mint! colour is lovely. good video man keep up the good content
Jamie iv seen you in the best german wagons! The old mk 4 gsi is a treat!!
Great video, owner looks like a really sound guy. Had a K reg Astra GSI with red top engine many years ago. Still huge fan of the GSI. 👍
Manj Bains cheers mate.
Old school classic ✌ that gsi is mint
Always loved this shape of the Astras.
By far my favourite UA-camr, love the vids man!
Officially Gassed is now my favourite UK car channel on UA-cam. 👍
Bro, your a natural, you could be a presenter on cbeebies. Haha

Wow. Very nice. That's a keeper. Great video. Cheers, Jon.

Depends if you like straight roads or bendy ones really.
If your a decent driver you could handle an aggressive car around a track, just be more of a handful which again is fun

What a sweet motor!!! I've always liked the GSI and this is a proper mental one!!!
First time iv experienced a "double sick" on your channel 😂. What a beast 👍
Have a same one but unstripped, is a bit heavy, but love it and so jealous of this one.
Dad had the vectra gsi 3.2 gsi with a full irmscher kit, rapid cars, people underestimate all gsi’s
SM Tuning are wizards!
A 100-200km/hr (60-120mph) run would show its real potential with this drive type. Sick car!!
Briant Media i have done a standing mile run and the car got up to 170mph 0-60 was 5.3 secs. I put a video up on my channel
Always had a soft spot for these Astra's, that shape, a 3dr in that colour. Very good looking cars.
MK3 GSI redtops aswel 🤩
Loveeee the old school astras and the colour 😍😍
Looove a good turbo vaux, top end power Kings
Always liked the look of the Astras. MK4 is a nice shape. Not really a fan of Vauxhall but I wouldn't mind that
What a machine, wow.
Rocking that six panel clutch😂
Amazing rare beast!!!! 👍👍

not bad are they?
I’ve got a cammed corsa c Sri now great car
Why that emoji though
very unique love it

Cool video love that car got me thinking I could do that to my VXR
Power to weight
what a car! how can it be a straight through exhaust when it has a backbox?
