HI,
Does anyone have a corsa sport 1.6 16v lowered 60mm all round.
have seen kits that will drop 60mm but they say exc. gsi models
will this count as my car as well cos i imagine its down to the weight of the engine.
would preferably want koni kit or anything which gives a soft as possible ride.

I know the SPAX RSX kit I had on my old corsa will fit the GSi... I checked the part-numbers & also contacted SPAX about it.
but tbh I think the main reason is because GSi's are 15mm lower as standard anyways...

Eibach are much better quality, but the sportlines drop 30mm rear, 50mm front.
Apex have changed their kits now, so the 60mm kit does actually lower 60mm

They told me they have changed their kits only a couple of months ago. I think they might not be supplying Nova springs for corsa's to give a more true drop, i'm not sure though.
Yeah i'd say Apex are as good as Gmax and Spax
