well the 1st question.

I have some drive shafts that ae in my garage that was of a corsa redtop and I change the ends to make them fit ie change the outter cv joint? or are the shaft its self just to long???

2nd question.

someone come to my work yesturday and said that his corsa was a redtop, then said he had 2l brakes on but only had 14inch corsa gsi wheels on, so question is do 2l brakes fit under 14inch wheels??

Corsa shafts are about an inch longer I'm sure

Dunno about the brakes

Shafts are too long, and yep 2.0 brakes fit under some 14inch wheels.

Unless your using wide track running gear Corsa shafts dont fit on/in Novas.

On your second question I always thought 14s were to small if you look at 2l vauxhalls they all have 15s and the calipers sit very tight!

MK2 Astra had 14s fitted as standard, more to do with the width iirc.

Well v6 brakes 288mm fit very tight under 15s.

I THINK i have saw 2.0 brakes under a set of 14inch SR Steels before but not positive.
