Corsa one should fit fine, may just need a slight trim off either end!! Ive got the c16xe engine out of a corsa gsi in my nova and i used the corsa gsi top hose with no problems!

Likewise. The curly Corsa hose.

Hello im also Putting an x14xe into my nova but my mate says the engine is hitting the master cylinder. Does yours hit the master cylinder or is clear of it?

Should be no where near hitting the brake master cylinder

It does if it has the std inlet/intake hose.

Bend the brake pipes out of the way slightly, andd cut the breather stub off the black intake hose
