Im thinking of buying one already converted off somebody i know, so was just wondering how hard they are to fit?

Its got everthing on it apart from hand brake cables, is this a hard thing to do?

Any advice from people who have done this conversion would be great.

Thanks

astra gte 16v ones according to some m tec info. I would look into getting a bias valve as made my nova awful under heavy braking. Back end always locked up hence keeping drums on corsa with better stuff up front.
