Pics of My 2000 Facelift Omega - Star Silver CDX
« on: 30 December 2007, 15:42:22 »

Here we have my 2000 2.5 V6 Star Silver Facelift CDX with a sequential LPG conversion.

The Omega now has approx 110,000 miles on the clock, but has been extremely well looked after and is going very strong.

I've owned lots of cars, but this one is my pride and joy, I'm really proud of her










Here is the LPG Filler - I intend to spray this silver soon. It is slightly low to the ground, but doesn't cause any major problems:





And here are some of the LPG components under the bonnet. The conversion was done as a DIY job, by myself, and my good friends Kevin Wood and Markie.


Evaporator, mounted on the wing:



Injectors and gas hoses, on top of plenum:










Work I have done on the car is follows - all work apart from tyre fitting has been DIY:

1) Sequential LPG conversion

2) New Tyres, balance, and alignment

3) New Genuine GM Cat back exhaust system, and new    manifold to downpipe gaskets.

4) Brand new clutch kit fitted, inc pressure plate and    release bearing - hugely improved gearchange
  
5) Gearbox oil change x 2

6) Cambelt kit, water pump, aux belt, aux tensioner    change

7) Full service, 1k oil changes, new plugs, breather    cleanout, coolant flushes.

8) New sump (don't ask!)

All in all, a great car, and not one I intend to part wtih for a while..

Feel free to admire ;)

Not bad for a facelift but I prefer a full fat V6 in the form of a mini facelift  ;D

Scuttle Broken?
