Hey guys. Just bought an XE last night that im gonna fit into the corsa. Its out of a cav GSi 2000 16v. It hasnt got the gearbox, driveshafts or alternator. Whats the best gearbox and shafts to get for it? F20?? Is there any other shafts apart from the M-Tech ones that are cheaper?

F20 box.
A good mixture of Driveshaft is Cav inners (22 spline) and nova gte outers. Im sure ive got that the right way round.
I've used them in mine and my mates have found the're just as relaible and a lot cheaper.

Part number for the inner cv's you need. They have 22 spline on one side and a different amount on the other. (Can't remember exact number)

need a flange welding on to adapt it... its best to adapt the fannymould/downpipe that way if you change systems it'll always fit
