£25/ £30?? Is it springs and shocks or just springs?? if its the full kit youll be looking at around 80-100 every garage i called quoted over 90ish, springs i think will be less.

hardly a bugger, you just need to get the tracking checked

there is no real need for camber adjustment as you can't adust the camber on corsa's unless you get adjustable top mounts, and even then its a bit overkill for lowering 40-60mm

not sure about a finish dat
i think he's expecting around 180-200bhp with jenvey throttle bodies and reprofiled cams, omex management and the exhaust and stuff, should sound nice too!
