any motorsport or decent car tuning place will stock coilovers. You are probably looking around £450 to £1000+ I wouldnt recommend getting them from PVD, but this is the link to them on their website so you know what you are looking for!

a nova is lightes than a corsa so put a heavier car on a set of springs made for a lighter car they will compress more
i have the FK 75/50 springs on my corsa sits very low on front

HOW MANY TIMES DOES THIS HAVE TO BE EXPLAINED?????????
NOVA SPRINGS/CORSA SPRINGS R THE EXACT SAME-- rite?????
THEREFORE WHEN PUTTING NOVA SPRINGS INTO A CORSA UR STILL PUTTING THE SAME SPRINGS IN AS THE CORSA SPRINGS AND SO IT MAKE NO DIFF AS TO HOW LOW THE CARS GONNA GO. ITS NOT GONNA GET ANY LOWER.. THIS IS JUST A BULLSHIT WAY OF PEOPLE TRYING TO SAY THAT THEIR CARS R LOWER THAN THEY ACTUALLY R.
some people r SO thick

Standard Corsa springs are shorter than Nova ones, therefore when you put the same lowering springs on, the Corsa goes down further.
Plus the Corsa is heavier.
Some people prove they've not considered the full picture.

u said standard corsa springs are shorter than nova ones. ie nova ones r longer. so even if ur theory made ne sense ur still contradicting ur self as the lowered nova springs would actually be longer than the lowered corsa springs so the car would sit higher. although ur theory is complete and utter crap. just wanted to point that out

Stevien mate, you seem to be missing the point. Corsa's are heavier than Novas, so putting nova springs on a corsa will make it sit lower as there is more weight on the springs, compressing them more....
