due to the conversion being a major fook oop and very costly, things werent done properly, which leaves me with a few questions...

1) brakes, the nova gsi brakes seem bigger to the corss brakes, so not going to bother putting on 16V ATEs, so, should i just change the servo/master cylinder as the current servo/master cylinder will be powering larger brakes?

2) suspension, the cowboy mechanic put the front springs/shocks on from the nova onto the corsa, bought new shocks, was wondering 1) will the springs from the nova shocks fit onto the corsa shocks? and 2) is there any difference between standard corsa shocks and sri/gsi corsa shocks?

3) induction kit, should i buy a k&n compatable for a 1.6 nova gsi engine or 1.4 corsa sri engine, as the TB is from the 1.4, but the inlet manifold is from the 1.6?

cheerz!

1) Not sure what brakes corsa SRi have as standard.
The standard servo will be fine with nova gsi brakes

2)Nova and corsa suspension is swappable, just the corsa have different poundage springs as they are heavier than novas.
Nova springs will lower your corsa more than a nova.
-not sure if Sports have different shocks, they may be SLIGHTLY improved

3)Get the corsa SRi induction kit if your using the corsa air duct and tb.
