Corsa b or Corsa c?

Matt, Corsa C is quite a bit different to a B setup, So presuming graeme wants it for a nova, B is the only option since C wont work in a nova.

Put one in that 4x4 nova without much effort?

I'll get a pic when I'm down there.

Definitely Corsa c one aswell.

This help? Mine's on a custom bracket at the top that allowed me to move it over to the right and adjust the height/direction etc:

Cheers is it easier to start from scratch than use any of the Nova Corsa arrangement?

I've heard it's possible to bolt it to the standard Nova arrangement without mods, but I wanted to relocate the column to reduce the angle it sits at as standard.

Corsa C column is different, steering wheel fitment is different so are the electrics iirc

My camera has decided to delete all the pics from the SD card

Here's a couple of pics of the lower mount from the Corsa column fitted, it's not all up tight and I'll get more detailed pics when I'm working on it next

With the column in place I drilled a hole through the battery support bracket which IMO will be strong enough to take the weight on the column

Under side

Once that's done you can work out where to weld the top column mount from the nova column on to the corsa column

Also get a SPI AK transducer and be able not to have the dial thing box for the resistance

The ECU expects an RPM input too, is it happy with just the speed from the transducer and no RPM?
