So, this is my fourth car (second calibra), Calibra v6, which was made in Finland, Uusikaupunki, in 1997/03. It´s a little bit different, not it has some home-made spoilers
The buying story is simple- I saw a nice looking calibra with no hard price
The body condition make me still suprising - no rust anywhere you look
The look is original and I´d like to keep it, some changes may be come, but nothing serious (window tint for example).
Now some specifics:
Under bonnet: 2.5 24v v6 x25xe 125kw/170hp
Fittings:
2x el windows, heated el mirrors, 2x airbags, original burgler alarm, on-board computer, front foglights, Traction Control (TC), light packet, etc..
And with the special edition:
16" BBS, -30 Irmscher springs, irmscher rear spoiler (with documents), white "cloks" + oil pressure and battery voltage, lether steering wheel and gear shifter button, specific emblems on sides and rear, specific interiour (yellow/grey stripes).
Some technical problems must be done, like ABS sensor is dead, conditioner system is empty and....and that´s all at the moment
Of course I replaced after buying the engine belt, oil, airfilter and coolant. Later will change gearbox oil and powersteering oil also, gas filter. Axles are very good, brakes not bad at the moment.
As we know, most of information come from pictures






















And little information what i have done:
Before I had BMW with R6 engine and it did in original much better sound that this 2.5 calibra, so I bought "new" exhaust to the end. It´s specially for calibra, so all I had to do was to put it on

I polished the mufflers.

Now comes out polite low sound.
Estonian winter will take bad effect for cars, especially for Opel´s
Before:





Here are some things I used:

Similar paint (not for visible places), special "grease" and very effective rust remover.
And after:












and also inside

new rear bumper holders were made.








So, that´s all for now
Almost forgot - greetings from Estonia
Lauri
