Re: corsa A (nova) c20let project

Excellent work mate! love the welding!

You've got a couple of choices with regards to drive shafts you can build them or buy them;

Building them you need mk2 cavalier inner cv joints and nova 22 spline drive shafts

or

chris astley sells stuff on ebay I believe so you could get them off there, he also uses this site so he might see this thread.


Good luck with the build!

With the kind of power you are intending to run, I'd avoid the 22 spline option. Chris Astley trades as Rallyman on ebay.

Nice project though, I love seeing custom fabrication in car builds, this looks like it wont disappoint. Be sure to keep us updated & make sure it gets finished.
