Hi all, I like the corsa, it just doesnt seem as "fun" to drive as some other cars, feels really heavy in the corners and that.
What is the best thing I can do to sort this out?
Suspension [springs, shocks or both]
Strut Brace
Try and lose a bit of weight from the car? Air con really isnt needed - easy to take out?
its a 1.4 sport on a 98 plate. Any help appreciated

I should also mention I havent got loads of money to spend on it. lol, cheers though dean. lol
But will keep that one in mind then, looking for a cheaper fix first, then will save up for the B12 Kit

Without the cash, your pretty stumped tbh.
Decent budget suspension kit like spax or koni, not too sure on roll bars and strut braces. Some say take the front roll bar off, some say keep it. Personal preference I think.

lowering springs will get you the cheap fix

Too cheap fix. You ideally need matched dampers or your pissing in the wind.
Bouncy bouncy......

ok, so whats peoples opinion on a strut brace then? Nice and cheap, and got to do something.
I was considering just springs, but without dampers there really is no point? As I am looking for performance, not looks.

I had springs only on my corsa for a couple of weeks. Wasnt a good ride at all. Get a proper kit, specially if your going for performance.
