The drive shafts don't fit too well as Cavs are a bit wider...

You need the rear disk setup and the front hubs. The front hubs need to be machined like you would in an old skool 2.0 conversion then you need to get the CV's sorted. Either 2.0 conversion or maybe you could look into using 1.8 Cav outer CV's. Not sure if that would work or not.

does anyone know what parts i need to do a 5 stud conversion on my corsa. i'm running a standard 1600 sport so standard shafts n hubs are still fitted. i'm only doing this so i can fit cav turbo wheels :D

Cheers,
Mick
