what parts are you looking for exactly? for the fitting kit... its entirely up to you you can pay 400+ or you can pay 100+
personally i'd get some cav 1.6 inner cv's and just use your exsisting shfts outter cv's and hubs..
your can get an engine mount of lee mitchel on here or GARY on migweb...
then get a m-tech quicshift gear selector and an ecotek pipe... then yer ready to fit it...

Yea, but they are from a Mk II Cav, which there aren't many, and you also will need to upgrade them as soon as you want anymore power from the engine. The next best thing is to use the Cossvaux/M-Tec stuff, the ultimate way to di it is to have your bearing knuckles machined to fit Harr Hockley bearings and GM 2.0 hubs onto the Corsa which requires no machining ans subsequently the hubs are a hell of a lot stronger.... The machined style ones, even the ones from M-Tec and Cossvaux e.t.c.. break now ant then.

whats the crack with these mk 2 cav inner cv's then. i'm assuming that they are no longer stocked by places anymore due to their age. Where can i get some and how much are they?
