Hi all from downunder,

just bought an Opel Omega 2.5V6 that was imported from Japan into New Zealand, done 112,000kms I think it was a bit of a steal.

I haven't got it yet but have some photos to share once I figure out how to post them

I will needing some help with the exhaust manifolds and maybe later changing the cam belt.

Hope you all had a good christmas and new years.  Thumbs Up!

Thanks everyone,
I should clarify that I am Downunder and over one, New Zealand  Grin
I will be keeping in touch with you all over things like cam/timing belts etc and the local  Shocked prices seem on the high side, even though there are X25XE engines in the "local" Vectra's and some of the Saab's
I have photos of the car, yet to get grubby mitts on it and will have more pics once its here.
Cheers from NZ
Tim
