I think the fronts are a few turns in as it catches on the arches on hard cornering, but not too hard that it breaks your spine

The backs are about 5 clicks in I think.

I haven't really set it up for handling or anything just mainly to keep it sitting level and reasonably comfortable

Cheers dan, engine needs a clean tbf, my header tank cap Leaks even thou its new so get water spots around bay!
Guessing yours is slammed Darryl, if it was hitting arches I've raised mine now, it's probs around 40-50mm at front..
Just raised for winter really, will drop again for next year for shows/summer etc...

It is down a tad yeah

Roads aren't too bad down here so it's not too bad with the tyre just in the arch on the front

Looking good Jamie,i have the GAZ rears on mine atm min and love them,will be buying a new set becasue i want them on the front too.

Tigra scuttle is always a nice simple mod well worth doing

Whats the plans for the rear seats? those recaros look very comfy.

Id personally keep this corsa over a gsi as it will be a much more solid shell & less rust.

Lovely car, looks awesome!

Seats suit it well too (although yes I'm aware Pagey was first )

Only thing it need is a new grill to replace your broke one!
