No, it won't fit. Nova rear beams are different (apparently).
However, a Corsa B rear beam with disc conversion would be exactly what you need... ahem.

Notice the word probably. Ask on Mig, as most the people on here don't have a clue... Seeing as Corsa B's are almost identicle as Novas, especially the early ones....

The nova beam ends up being about an inch to short each side so nope it wont fit...

I think a 5-stud Brocade Yellow Corsa would be lovely.

there is no need for a conversion kit at all.... all u need is an astra gte/gsi rear beam a welder, an angle grinder and a can of hamerite.
2-3 hours work.

Some people don't weld. Or have access to tools.
This rear beam is a direct replacement

You would sell it a lot quicker if it was 4 stud you know. You can go on about all that originality bullshit, but I think most people owuld only change thier car to 5 stud as a performance upgrade, or if it was to get a certain type of wheel. No one cares how many bolts hold thier wheels on really. Most garages would weld the spacer plates on for less than £20, they only need a quick nip down the sides...
