cruise control

[gazsnova]

just been flicking through this month total vauxhall and had the idea
all seems fairly straight forward but..
does anyone know if the vectra/ omega/ sintra indicator stalk fits the nova mounting point?

cheers

[Mike]

Be the first to try it and be sure to let us know it doesnt work :thumb:

[brainsnova]

make it fit :thumb:

Teh veccy one should fit.

And in thery it should be do able, its somthing i plan on doing once my engine is running proplery.

[gazsnova]

giong for a mish round scrappy tomorrow see if i can get a stalk to test

[Jay]

The stalk will fit.

[gazsnova]

hmmm i can feel a project comin on

[AlexW]

The stalk will fit, its finding a way of mounting the acual cruise control thingy.

Sounds interesting, if you attempt it be sure to take sh*t loadsa pics. Would be a good 'How To'

[gazsnova]

well the cruise control unit (ecu) can be mounted anywhere within the cable range, and with the nova engine bay being smaller than a veccy or omega id say id have enough length on the cable to position it wherever really.
i think that makes sense.

if i do pics for defo.

[AlexW]

Yer, ive already got all the setup, just havnt fitted it yet. What engine are you fitting it to?#

[gazsnova]

mines running a 2.0 8v at the min.

[AlexW]

Should be easy then. Let me know when youve got it all fitted. Can put both our setups into a how-to thread?

[scotty GSI]

cruise control on a nova, how posh! lol

yeah would be good idea.

[gazsnova]

posh aint the word. am aiming for electric everything! :-)

[Nova_Tek]

electric everything means a slow Nova all that added weight :p

My Nova has cruise control anyway :D

[AlexW]

A heavy right foot isnt the same lol....

Mines got/going to have a load of electric ****. Small block weight saving = more weight left over for crap lol

[Jack]

Interesting. I can't see a vacuum actuator and ECU adding that much weight, no more than a coupld Kgs surely

I'd quite like a CC system but I'd have to run some form of cable grab as my throttle connection is a five star top quality Lee bodge :D

[mikey14sr]

Stalk definately fits, as I'm using the corsa indicator stalk I had in the SR on my vectra!

[Nova_Tek]

A heavy right foot isnt the same lol....

A heavy right foot isn't CC an accurate / steady right foot is :D

stalk will fit no problems. just have to re-wire the connector as its different on the nova..

you will need to mount the motor somewhere and need to mount a 4pin brake light switch and a clutch switch.

some models of vectra use a stand alone CC system so it wil not need to be wired into anything other than just the power for itself and the switches/stalk.
