are these suitable for F28 use yet?
They have fitted 2 cars with F28's although I have not personally tried a set a set on a car with some.
Olly sold his to Gareth with the yellow nova and they fitted without any issues, I believe Gary (Corsakid) may of tried the same set on his and they fitted fine too.

Update as I have had a lot of interest in these.
Various kits have been finished and sold and the next batch are due to be machined soon, due to the slight differences in Corsa and Nova TCA's I'm getting a mix of the two made but if anyone specifically wants nova ones can you please let me know and I'll make sure enough kits are done.
Latest pics of the kits :

There are 2 types of Corsa kits, early and late, hole spacing in the TCA is different so they have to be machined different to suit this.
All kits come complete with nuts and bolts where required, chassis plating kits are advised, certainly to the crossmember bracket area itself. 4 x high quality motorsport rose joints are also included. Powdercoat colour is optional but Auto2000 as per the Corsa setup is the most commonly used by the company used.
Bottom ball joints are not included but OE items or Uniballs work fine.
These have been fitted to Novas and Corsas running a F28 gearbox, had a few PM's asking the same question so thought I'd add that info
Bumping this thread as I have 2 Nova kits available
Price is £450 + £10 delivery ( pending that you are mainland and not in the deepest regions of jockland lol )
Any sort of deal if I take both nova kits? Cheers
I've sent you a PM
Still got 2 nova sets here.

hi mate,
It´s possible a kit for a nova running a F13? and postage to Spain?
Thx
No problem at all. The first kits were initially designed on a nova running a f13.

Hi, what is the maximum track that these could give im after a wide track set up and just wondered before i get started on making one.
Thanks dean
I'll check that for you, there is a set at my mates workshop which were a widetrack setup.
How wider track are you going for ?

I've dropped him a text so I'll get him to measure it tomorrow.

Hi ya pal you interested in supply the valance mounts only? I've got a pilbeam set but lost the front brackets thanks stuart
These still being made and sold?
Can these be modified for a corsa b? Also how much adjustment is there on the tie bar?
I have done kits for both Corsa and tigra as well as novas, David Dixon, Specky, Big Ron and Adam Dewis to name a few all run the kits on their cars, I have customers abroad running them on Tarmac rally cars and drag cars.
are these the same kits as on ebay? they look the same but they are £370 delivered.
Different kit
I'm struggling to get anywhere near the 4 degrees positive castor recomended in the GM build guide even with eccentric top mounts.
Has anyone used this kit on a rally car? My car is primarily a tarmac car but does go into the forest from time to time.
Does shortening the tie bar to give more castor reduce the track of the cas much?
