Hi,
Ive been offered the full suspension off a 97 1.6 Sport, is it any lower/better than the suspension on a 1.2 Swing?

Cheers

Alot of people say its 10-15mm lower, but to be honest Sports don't look any lower than any other Corsa.

dont do it! the sport engine is heavier, therefore the ride hight will be higher at the front!
because u have a lighter engine!
