its not. 4 of them fit, 2 of them seem to be the wrong shape
and they are marked up wrong. the offside is the drivers side, but the 'offside' in the pics, seems to be the passenger side...

james.. what you require is either a:
20XE on throttle bodies
or
X/C16XE on throttle bodies.. they myth of 20xe's handling like crap is untrue.. drive mine and make a decision

Good wook, looking good!
If a paxo was made like the corsa, not that its brillo, but its french.....i'd prefer it over my corsa for handling anyday, not bad for a small car anyway.

your limit with the lexmaul is going to be around 150bhp IMO, without spending stupid money on it, where it would be cheaper to get tb's........
i wouldnt do a 8v conversion, taking a step back IMO.
1.6 16v on tb's with a diff and youll be flying! ask robin.
you need to get up here and try it yourself then leave a deposit!
as for reliability, mine is used daily and works still, granted its had issues but thats been down to me fitting inferiour parts and trying to do a few bodges to keep it running
