As above what brake servo shal I fit to my nova? I'm currently running astra gte brakes all round and the pedal is slightly spongey so want to upgrade the servo, do I upgrade the complete servo or just the cylinder?
Cheers

A 100000000mm servo wont stop the spongey feeling.....

I'd imagine you mean the pedal travel is longer than it used to be if you have discs all round etc, in which case you want a bigger master cylinder as opposed to a bigger servo.

Connon one is the GTE/GSI m/c.

You can use a earlie astra one, but means making new brake lines.

Do they? Even with the fluid tank facing the wrong way?

You need a mk2 Astra, non abs. THe bolt holes need to be at 3 and 9 (straight across)

Sorry ben ment the corsa mc. I use a nova gsi servo with the corsa mc so that I can use mk2 Astra pressure regulators

Dont the Corsa ones normally face up wards rather than along tho? So the Fluid pots will be laying down when fitted to a Nova...?
