forget about vectra, we found yesterday a rear suspension unit for a nubira with disk brakes... thats what we will go for for sure.

now the question is: will we need the proportional valves from the rear disks version to replace the ones we got on the rear drums version?? i see on the lanos conversion this is a must or else rear lockup will be a big problem so i guess it is the same on the NUbi... right?

also any concerns regarding the hand brake cables and stuf??

yeah its recomended that you change the proportinal valves or distributors as they're also known.

the hand brake cable should be needed too.
