Hi just another quick question,just bought a gmax 60mm nova lowering kit for my corsa.On doing the back springs i noticed a rubber spacer on the chassis,does that have to be there or can i remove it to make it a bit lower?

think it just stops ur spring twanging around. be prepared for a shit ride on 60 mm nova springs.

not necessarily. nova rear springs are the same dimensions as corsa ones. they sit lower because they are a lower poundage spring as the nova is lighter. so it will actually be a softer ride than a corsa spring.

just leave the rubber bit in. wont be much lower by not having it there. it stops the spring vibration going through the car.

If your going to lower your car that much you want coil overs because you are just throwing handling out of the window for a car that looks slightly nicer.
