Sorry mate, no idea.
What engine are you running in yours? Converting to 5 stud might not be too dificult.

You need to convert to 5 stud. I used vectra stuff but you need to be running big block shafts. I'm not that familiar with the isuzi lump but is it like most small blocks in that you can fit a big block gearbox straight to it?

Im told the car is a big block engine bud not sure why it has the standard 1.5td box fitted though. It also has a rear disc conversion will that help? What are stud converters mate?

Stud converters bolt on like wheel spacers as such but then also convert to a different stud pattern.

If you already have disc rear then its easier. You'll need to fit a 5 stud rear disc setup. Cav V6 is best and I think someone on MIG was selling the bits.
To do your fronts to 5 stud you'll either need to get some 5 stud hubs machined down to fit the corsa carrier, buy them machined new (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Vauxhall-5-Stud-Motorsport-Hub-Nova-Corsa-Astra_W0QQitemZ280466611921QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item414d1cded1) or have the carrier machined out to fit a golf bearing.
Then just fit big block gearbox and shafts. You'll have to ask about clutch/flywheel setup as I'm not sure.

Of course you'll need 5 stud front brakes.

Would i be right in thinking if i got my 4 stud hubs re-drilled to 5stud pattern that would be easier and cheaper?
Thanks

As above, you need to convert to a big block setup & rear disc.
