vectra & omega are completely different suspension wise

The 2.5 v6 vectra engine is the same block as a omega 2.5 but has a different inlet manifold

some interrior bits are the same but thats as about as far as it goes :(

eBay
e
irmscher make aftermarket styling for the omega but it costs £££

The omega isnt in with the boy racers so theres not much availible for it max power bodykit wise

lowering kits do exist Eibach do one but again its £££

i wouldnt play around with the engine much the air intake is more than ample and an induction kit will just kill the Airflow sensor

i notice you have a 2.5 so heres an instant 22bhp! get some 3.0 Cams & a 3.0 inlet divider :y

Mods for the 2.0

Lowering springs - Eibach
Body kit parts Ebay - Irmscher, and pattern parts
Engine mods Z22LET - V6 - start with aV6 - easier

My 2.6 has a few alterations, and will be getting fitted with 3.0 cams in two weeks time, 1 head is already ported.
