rite just been outside to look, the drivers side looks the same as the top shaft in the pic. but the pass side on which i need looks like the same type of shaft (goes from small to thick then back to small, but the thick bit is only about 4-5 inches long) i changed the inner joint on the passenger side a couple of weeks ago and i used a calibra joint..i just wana get the right one before i take it apart, cos i dont hav a garage or drive so will be doin it on the road

top equal length shaft may fit but you will still need the hubs to take the cvs

The shafts wont fit then and iirc calibra shafts are 20mm longer than corsa shafts

You need either
corsa outer joints 22spline(GSI) shafts and 1.6 cav inners as torsa said. they will fit your hubs

or

Conversion shafts with mtech type hubs and big block calibra cvs

Jam666

posted on 31st Aug 08 at 20:47

ok thanks, so does that mean i can use normal corsa bearings too? arnt the 22 spline gsi ? and also i changed an inner cv joint not so long ago and i used a calibra one ??

posted on 31st Aug 08 at 20:44

u will need corsa outer joints 22spline(GSI) shafts and 1.6 cav inners

some of the ecotecs are 22 spline and some arent
