Anyone know if Corsa and Nova are the same and what would be the best way of getting hold of some. Where would you recommend getting them machined out to fit larger 5stud hub setup

Cheers Ian

I dont think they are the same. Put a wanted thread up.

As for the 5 stud, have a search on here. A few are running 5 stud.

Yes Corsa B hubs are identical to Nova ones except for a little tab on the side for fitting abs.

They fit and theyre 15 quid from scrapyard.

And i know this because i was there yesterday buying one for my nova.

ABS ones have a bigger ID bearing.

[LEWI007]

Whats the ID bearing? Just the bearing in the centre?

And could it be swapped for a nova one

Internal Diameter

So it'd have to be early non ABS hubs thatd be identical ?

Internal Diameter


I was always lead to believe it was the external diameter that was bigger?

If it's the id that's bigger, than why don't people use these with 5 stud hubs?

Instead of 34mm go to 36mm?

I was simply telling him what AW06 meant by ID.....

I know lol

Anyways, it's handy to know, as if it's the id, and the od is the same, then I'll put Corsa bearings, in nova hubs, and turn my cav hubs down to 36mm!
