Ah yea i'll be using the corsa's gearbox, but when it comes to buying the uprated clutch for it, is it literally just "the Clutch" or are there like "clutch kits" of sorts?

if going into a corsa you cant use the vectra box as it hydralic, use the standard corsa box

Also, would it need to be just the clutch or isit advised to get a clutch "kit" in which case what would be included?

The 1.4/1.6 gearbox is F17?

Hi guys,

The clutch from a vectra B 1.8, would it fit on the gearbox of a 1.4/1.6 corsa sport gearbox?

Cheers
