Yes I'm thinking at one point it was a loved car! Says Opal on the plate in the engine bay so perhaps suggests German build? It's going to be a long road this one (given my skills) but a worthy restoration to get back on the road I feel!

Re: Rear Suspension Arm 5 Stud Converted GSi
Ahh, that explains a lot, the interior seems a somewhat higher spec than I was expecting aswell. Doesn't explain what looks like exterior vectra b door handles / and central locking however.

Re: Rear Suspension Arm 5 Stud Converted GSi
I think someone must have spent a bit of money on the car back in the day! It's c25xe converted, although not running by a long stretch now. Question is do I spend time getting it going, return to a c20xe and perhaps carbs or go down the b204 route. Hmm decisions

Most appreciated! I'll get it off the car to have a better look first. I'm learning fast that parts are getting rare for these cars!

Rear Suspension Arm 5 Stud Converted GSi
Hi,
Not long picked up a 92 Cavalier GSi. It's had a 5 stud conversion. Problem is the rear wheel / suspension appears to have met with an object / kerb and is clearly out of true.
Am I correct in thinking I'll need a new rear suspension arm from a V6 Calibra?
Any help / advise appreciated
Regards
