machined out hubs to take big cvs<<or run gsi shafts with 22 spline inners and keep the std. size hubs. seen a few LET's running them with no problems, not ideal if you're running huge power but fine for a 200-250bhp engine IMHO. f28 requires modification of the mount as well i beleive, not sure though, done no research on this as i have no intention of fitting one. as for brakes i'd go for either 288mm v6 items or 308mm astra gsi ones depending on the wheels on it (288s fit under 15s)
