      I used to rally a suzuki engined nova and it was great, yours is even higher spec so bet it's amazing.

      Must be competitive in it's class.

              Whats involved in the gearbox adaption and why do it.
              ipresume as the suzuki box is a weak point, but surely there are replacement parts to upgrade. Is the opel box that much tougher. what is it from whats necessary to fit.
              I know a whole country full of Suzuki owners that would love the answer to their weak gearboxes on the back of their turbo swifts.
              Nice car too.
