    As the boys have said get a tape measure & you will find out it wont fit ...

    Would have been probably easier to do that than type up your original post ..

    Hi,

    Maybe, but it appears you get a stack of rep when you post such a question on the forums.

    What you will note with those excels is that they now sport a diff at the back, and a gearbox in the trans tunnel. Hence they have had the super expensive conversion from wrong wheel drive to rear wheel drive.

    5M will have issues with fitment due to you having a right hand strut. If you remove the right hand strut assembly and cut out the supports which used to hold it in place, you will be fine for length.

    A 5M into an AE82 is about as much of a scheme as sticking your cock in a toaster, you shouldn't even be considering it.
