Been racing a 106 gti tonight in my 1.6 sport.....was suprisingly even on the straights....but he fucked me good and proper on the corners...the corsa just wobbles all over the place.

I want a suspension set up - springs and shocks, which will lower it about 60mm, handle well, and not be too harsh over bumps!

is there such a kit??

lower it, strut braces, anti-roll bars if you havent got them aready, good tyres and sensible driving if your on publlic roads.

Yes. If your running standard three spokes, then put some decent tyres on them/get some 15"s. Changed my Three spokes on michelin tyres for 15" wheels on 185 various decent rubber, and the difference is untrue. just gripped the road like it was on rails

Think a good set up would be Bilstein shocks and Eibach springs,15inch alloys with 195/45 tyres.

decent tyres, einbach springs, bilstein shocks, front upper strut brace, poly bushes, then you can start getting into other goodies like adjustable top mounts, rose jointed bits etc...

uprated roll bars are the way to go
