iv just put a bid on a kadett c to fit my let into the lad who is selling it wants 2k for the kadett. i no its not mega money but the bits are going to only get harder to get so then i thought how about a e30 bmw and fit my let into. i want sumthin rear wheel but vauxhall powered so the main thing is has any one or no any one who as fitted a let into a bmw. how hard was it?:thumb:

Not a vauxhall though, Suzuki ****, Plus you would be lucky to fit anything a proper size in there.

Without mentioning the handling.
