I've talked to these guys before, that kit only includes stock specific parts, which for that price I think it's not worth. You can pick up a used engine for nearly half that price. Granted it's used, but it's also already assembled and less hassle.

I was thinking of the same thing. There's a lot of unnecessary wiring going on there.

Yes guys, the Pontiac Lemans, Opel, Vauxhall, and Lanos all have the same rotors! I bought a pair of Brembo cross drilled and slotted brakes and they fit perfectly. Here is the OEM part number for your rotor: Lanos - 90121455 Here is the Brembo part number: 90309010. However, trying to get Brembo to...

Yes, the rear strut bar mounts on the top of the rear strut tower. The one that mounts under the car is a rear tie bar. We won't need a rear tie bar because the way the Lanos suspension is made.

Are you talking about the front sturt bar from an accent will fit the lanos, or the rear?!? I think bringrice is looking for the rear.

Yes, that is the estimates I was given. the soft turbo kit got up to 170hp, and the turbo plus close to 200 hp with stock internals. I would think they would be loosing some money not selling overseas. I would say there is a pretty big demand for a kit over here in the US. But it is their shop... b...

hope you got your power back. I'm in Northern VA near DC and I just got my power back Tuesday. Same problems up here. No power, no phones, grocery stores are closed or empty. I have to say though, for those who stayed behind to try and hunker down, that's just plain stupid. I had a friend in the Out...

Actually I want to know the cost of the kit itself. I think Grabowski said his soft kit runs $2000. That of course, is without shipping. I don't think I'm going to poland to get it installed since I haven't had a passport since I was 7 yrs old, and it would cost waaaaaay too much to have it shipped ...

Yes, that's it. Mr. Grabowski. So www.promotormocy.pl is better, huh? I can't seem to get the link to work. How is it better?!? Different turbo?!? How do the prices compare?!? is promotormocy more expensive the Grabowski?!?
