Hi everyone,

I recently bought a C20xe Nova conversion kit from Colin Smith, unfortunately I've had to sell the car and therefore have no need for it. I hadn't even open the package it came in until I wanted to take pics for the ebay advert and am a bit confused with what i've got. I emailed Colin for him to clarify but as yet haven't had a reply.

So...from the pics below , can anyone tell me exactly what i've been sent? I know the engine and gearbox mounts are there, i'm more confused with the 3 driveshafts i've ended up with!

Cheers in advance.

Id say youve ended up with a spare short shaft looking at that as its definately not an equal shaft setup, the L shaped mount is your rear engine/gearbox mount and the three little plates go onto that and the other one is your pass side gearbox to chassis leg mount, actually looking again, it looks like you dont have a gearbox CV joint on the offside driveshaft so im gonna guess the other one was sent for you to remove the inner CV from it for the XE gearbox.

non of them are split shafts/equal length, it looked like one of the cv boot has come off and

It looks like colin has pulled a little too hard and now has an f20 with half a cv stuck in there, he then thought ouhhh thats missing a cv, here have this one but you can take it off.

Whala.... i still think its a pink dildo mind.

Just means the CV is suitable for an ABS car? One of the new CVs I got for my Nova had the ABS ring.

sorry princess, im doing the " i dont need to read what other people posted" thing. Seeing how that works out lolz.

it failed, and i shall no continue to properly read things, I hope these are not 22 spline shafts either, as it looks like the poor bugger who buys them will need to buy a new inner cv.

yup bought these last night but the inner joint off the smaller shaft doesnt fit the nova 1 im assuming its a cavi/cali joint as its way 2 big for the nova shaft :(
