With those rear arms you can either fit sierra setup or vaux.
Omega i trailing arm and very heavy! Also getting 5 stud hubs for mantastub axles is impossible and omega fronts won't work - I've got some in the shed and checked. They use a steering box so the arms are in the wrong place.
Me too!! Will start to look like a car again then.Looking goodcant wait to see some tubing going in.
Keep it up
And before someone asks why not just use a trailing arm setup its because on compression the wheel move upwards and forwards much like a rear beam. I want double wishbone because it moves upwards and inwards. Firstly it creates some negative camber & secondly it will aid outside arch clearance which is tight!
i've seen some with double wishbone,
also seen a few off road buggies with double wishbone/seirra bearing unit and vauxhall wheels,
there are 100mm pcd seirra hubs out there, it's just finding them
those rear arms are from drd racing and they also make arms to take vauxhall drive shafts and hubs, i should know as i work for them :D try our website drdracing .co.uk and drop us an email if you have any questions or need any help
if you are on corsasport them check out phillip2 rear engined corsa project thread as we did the fabrication work on it

Very impressive progress dude,keep it up!
I've been on the site & seen the parts you offer, however the vaux fitment is still trailing arm like above & not double wishbone.
Cheers
Had any time on this lately mate?
Took the engine back out last nite. That is all
I'm waiting for the main part of the cage now, which I might order next month.
