    Then you need an EPAS (Corsa B) column

    I have a complete wet rack kit - which is also a quick rack for sale and I am in newport.

    As Will says, EPAS is the solution here. Have a look at the Nova rally car rolling shell I have for sale on EBAY, that is fitted with the EPAS Corsa B electrically assisted steering column.

    Fitting a 'wet' rack on a Nova is a lot of work and plumbing to get into a Nova engine bay, and really not worth the effort in my view. You can't really use an engine driven pump as there's no room, so you have to switch to an electric pump, and that is a bulky thing to find a home for.
    To contact me please use E-MAIL to colinesmith@aol.com.

    thousands of Nova (plus other Vauxhall and motorsport parts) available.
