Managed to blag my mate into letting me have it, and it was on his 1.2 carbed nova, but was originally off a 1.4 SR. Anyone know if it'll fit? The box looks like it'll fit in the recess easily enough, and the tail pipe wont stick out too little/too much. Also the rear pipe bends the right way, but dont know if the bores are inter-changeable 
Will also need a couple of new brackets welding on to support it, but thats not too much of a problem 
So does anyone know if im gonna be able to get it on? Or has anyone done it before?

The backbox will definately go, although the hangers will need modding. Can't comment on the rest of the system though.

So the rear pipe will fit over the end of my original exhaust pipe from the centre box?

I bought a rear box that was supposedly for a Corsa, turned out it was for a Corsa A..ie. Nova. It fitted the existing pipework ok, but the hanger needed a bit extra welding on to it to fit.

I think it was only a single bar across the top of one of the original hangers iirc.
