    Old School Opel Manta A

    I want to know if anybody has switched to 5 lug wheels on their Manta A's. If so is it worth the work and wheel availability etc. 4x100's for rear drive is getting hard to locate. Thought's and words of wisdom welcome

    Yes 50 mpg was well...a dream, as for regulations not a problem here yet, the car will be primarily a track car. was thinking about Nissan 1.8s. something small and fairly economical, I have 3 more X1/9's so maybe a turbo diesel could be possible, I can see weight issues.
