how do you mean the short drivehsaft needs to be shorter? i was told astra gte shafts could be used? s presumerably an astra short shaft and cally long shft would be ok?

Well, the only driveshaft you need that's shorter is the short driveshaft... Apparently...

You would use the whole assembly from the Calibra. I never bothered trying with my 2.0 though so can't tell you if it's any better.

no mate, still got the nova, got that head on eventually to great effect. Yet to get RR, but reckoning on 95ish. makes for a good laugh down b roads. Im living in glasgow at the moment and ned a car I can park anywhere hence white merit spec with steelies!

Just want to make it as good as I can, and my donor is a 16v cally, which im told should have equal length shafts, will check at weekend. im just curious how they fit given the corsa is a lot narower than the calibra!

Did you just remoive them from donor and fit straight on with the same cvs etc?

Did you notice any improvement?

is anyone on here running the equal length shafts from a claibra? Did they fit straight on at full length, or did you have them shortened?
