Hi there,
Do you know how can I Mount a F20 gearbox in my corsa GSi with original X16Xe Engine?
I´m from Brazil and I have a X16XE turbo , the original F15 gearbox is breaking easily and I need to change to a more powerful gearbox.
What adaptations I need to do?

I think you need to change the clutch and flywheel, but the holes won't line up, also the starter motor won't fit. You'll also need 22 splined drive shafts, 1.6 cav CV's.
Have you got any pictures?

you need what i have. custom made flywheel that fits the x16 but will take the clutch for the f20. i have the same but im using an f28 gearbox. ben from ttv racing did mine. his username on here is vxlgsi. think mine set me back about £180 which is a bargain really

Thanks!
I will contact VXLGSI.
you know if the gearbox housing is plug and play in my engine?
The CV and drive shafts I use which one the stock one ?
gear linkage and mounts is the same?

the gearbox itself bolts directly on. you need the fancy flywheel and a clutch to match the f20 off a c20xe. standard driveshafts wont do you either need corsa gsi 22 spline shafts with cavalier 1.8 inner cv joints to fit the gearbox or the proper conversion shafts used in the 2.0 conversions but that means changing hubs as well. gear linkage will do but needs cutting and extending slightly and the rear mount needs a 10mm spacer in between the gearbox and the mount.
