power steering is piss easy, abs is pointless!!!

to be honest both are pointless, but i would imagine both can be done fairly easy using corsa parts. Especially the abs stuff as it will be straight swap for the nova stuff

to buy a reconditioned PAS pump from a specialist is about ?300ish.

So i'd be carefull what kinda condition car you take one off

otherwise it'l be SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK everytime you turn the wheel

well if you were a good enough driver you would be able to brake perfectly well without abs

cheeky f*cker, the rover V8s are quite a good engine and cheap. :lol:

Its only a 3.5, my dream car would be chevy nova ss witht he 350 V8 in though.

If you can find a corsa then thats the bits you need.

The Corsa C's run an electric motor on the steering column under the dash - there was one on ebay but it went for ?160+

A lot easier than plumbing in one from the engine especially if you have a C20LET under the bonnet!
