I know this might sound absolutely ridulous but you know all these new cars are being installed with the paddleshift gears well would it be possible to put one into a nova?? just a complete random question but you know....

would it be difficult to.

it is physically possible yes, in the same way its possible to fit a cossie engine longitudinally in the bay with a B&W T5 and RWD running gear

but just like the cossie engine i doubt its really somthing your really going to be able to achieve...

if you had a siquencial gear box then you could use a trans logic shifter, but again that would mean putting an engine in that is compatible with a siqencial box oh and the trans logic systems are between ?600 - ?1000

so if youve got a lot of money then you could do it

which is a good point can u buy a siquencial box for a GSI or a C20XE etc

there was a cav ex-touring car on ebay with an XE running sequential shift.

So it may be possible, but i wouldn't even like to think how much the g'box costs
