Re: Benzino's 2000 Lanos
You should consider lowering your SUV...
Re: Benzino's 2000 Lanos
i would if i didnt live in the bush... lol
Re: Benzino's 2000 Lanos
-Then the SUV really suite your needs...
I don't think that an inch would heart it's absorbing power, while on the other hand it would look much nicer...
I have lowered mine over 2 inches, and it's still very drivable...

Re: Benzino's 2000 Lanos
did you have rubbing issues? mine rubs in the back, i think guard rolling would be needed as well
Re: Benzino's 2000 Lanos
Yes. But lowering doesn't lower rear more than a half of a inch... And I have cut out plastics in the way of the rubber.
Re: Benzino's 2000 Lanos
mine rubs on a little metal tab right on the edge of the guard... i should just chop it.
i'm seriously considering an engine swap... i've been looking for c20xe engines but the cheapest im finding are c20ne's and x20xev's
any advice mr g?

Re: Benzino's 2000 Lanos
c20ne 2.0 8v 115HP, is fine if you would put the stand alone like VEMS and turbocharger (15psi stock, over 250HP)... Otherwise it is too weak..
X20XEV is fine new engine, 2.0 16V ecotec, but it's only 136HP... Better it would be Z20LET..
C20XE is and old, good engine, 2.0 16V 150HP, goes on lanos gearbox, it's P'N'P...

Re: Benzino's 2000 Lanos
yeah i really want a c20xe might have to save up for a couple more years
so to drop a c20xe in would i have to make custom front engine mount? also i'm guessing i would need all the sensors, wiring loom and computer from the donor car?
i'm excited about the thought of having that engine in my car hahaha

Re: Benzino's 2000 Lanos
all of the opel 2.0 engines will bolt up the same as a c20xe would. yeah you would need the front mount from a 2.0 lemans, adn you would need the entire engine managment system from mthe eonor car (sensors, ecy, wire harnes to mank connctions easier)
you could also turbo your 1.6 or one of those the c20ne's, but you would "need" a standalone, you cold just use a piggy back and still gave a nice machine

Re: Benzino's 2000 Lanos
yeah thats what i thought, thanks mofo
what about speedo? does that plug into the new ecu or does it come from the donor car?
i like turbo but i think i like the idea of a screaming N/A motor better
i think if i was going to go turbo, i would just buy a turbocharged car

Re: Benzino's 2000 Lanos
Lanos as a sleeper with a turbocharger is the twice surprising as the normal sleeper would be... Priceless...
You could use opel kaddet-E gsi/2.0 engine mount, or astra-mk2 2.0 engine mount...
You need engine, sensors, wiring loom, ECU, flywheel, both manifolds, alternator, starter, and clutch set from the donor car...
There is no N/A replacement for turbocharged engine...
I had in my lanos:
1. C20XE + D16 gearbox
2. C20XE + D16 + wizard of NOS (70HP) shot
3. C20XE ported and polished head (170+HP) + D16 + wNOS (80HP shot).
---- And now the games began ----
4. C20LET (2.0 16v Turbo 204HP) + F28 (6speed)
5. C20LET chiped + F28
6. C20LET standalone (250+HP) + F28
7. C20LET standalone forged + T3 (350HP) + F28, not finnished for now...
So, as you can see I have tryed it all in Lanos Sport... Great car, whitstand all of those tortures, with stock drive shafts and suspension system... Fucking Fun Car!!! FFC!!! The only thing I hate about the car is FF alignment (Front wheel drive)...

Re: Benzino's 2000 Lanos

Re: Benzino's 2000 Lanos
i like those wheels alot better than your old ones
Re: Benzino's 2000 Lanos
haha yeah... so do i
but i also liked how no one had my old ones, they were quite unique... but that could be due to the fact they were very poorly made hahaha

Re: Benzino's 2000 Lanos
Rear end is fine, but front end MUST be lowered inch or so... So buy a eibach prokit and it would lower front about 1.2inch and rear slightly and it would be great...
