    you need to use a gearbox with the cog drive, not with the gap gear as you have.

    How many wires are on the tigra vss? 2 or 3? the option is to find a wiring diag that tells you what is what.

    That's why I thought they would work, wire it up the same and see if it works. The N reg Tigra I broke had a cog drive F15, but the loom still had the plug ready for the vss. But the W reg 1.7d combo I put the V6 in had the electric vss, I thought they would just work the same tbh.

    I think you're missing the point, if I use the standard VSS I won't have a speedo.

    I'm about to put a X16XE out of a Corsa Sport in my Nova. This is probably a stupid question but can I use the whole Corsa front "mechanical" end (engine, gearbox, hubs, brakes, driveshafts etc) and bolt it all into the Nova or are the Corsa's differant?
