Yea matey.
The number for cossvaux is: 0114 243 5010
Give em a ring and see what they say. They seem like they know there sh#t when it comes to engine conversions on corsa's.

no apparently they are exactly the same size, youll need new wheelbearings from vauxhall and hubs from cossvaux to take the bigger cvs.

hubs are about 80-90 quid a side

you can use astra gte shafts/cvs which fit fine with cossvaux modded hubs to take the bigger cvs.

ive heard u can get astra gte shafts tapered to use in a corsa when fitting c20xe, can someone explain wot exactly this means, i know its done on a lave(spelling) and i know someone who has one so will he be able to do it for me, are there any measurements or anything he needs to know and does he need to hubs from the gte? i thought the whole point of doin this was so the shafts fit in the corsa hubs neway

bit confused, please help

Chris :)
