Rack - replace with electric assistance
TRE can be toughened
ARB also
Bushes - replace with poly

its generally feels quite "loose" so prob more concentrate on brushes and fixings, deffo driveshafts, but most solid chunks i guess could just be tidied up
i was thinking of a qwik-rack rather than electric assisted, quite like it how it is,

its will be your cv's that are noisy if anything... theres loads of nova quick racks alright... rsc motorsport are the only place i seen a corsa one advertised.... couldnt get onto there site though the other day...
i'd much prefer a quick rack over PAS anyday
