i want to have my car like this 24/7...









it was this low when i took the rear springs out to sell to torsa_g but i was told that it sits like this (arch level with lip of wheel) when its lowerd 100mm and obviously it was too low at the time as the exhaust is to low, even for my likeing...

the only issue ive got in going this low is the exhaust, theres a silencer thats abit low, but the main concern is the backbox, i love the design (6x4) but the backbox itself is just to low, what backbox have people got on there slammed corsa's?

soon as ive got the exhaust clearance sorted, my 90mm springs will 100% up forsale aswell..

its about -100mm isnt it in the pics above?

I'd say that's slightly lower than 100mm mate. Probably about 110, and I could see MAJOR issues with that kind of slammage

Those wheels look silly and dated and are soooooo common.


And what lap time did you get on the ring?

now now, stop with the comments lol... i no its a public forum n all..

the only wheels i think that are nice (with the right offset) are these and cesaros but loads of people have cesaros now, even a lad over the road from me on his corsa van on chopped springs..

Jules - Bite my banger.
Go have a cry into your cup of tea and let me get on with it, Its my opinion and if you dont like it .....TOUGH.

Im a gobshite? Aye, Jog on ya shit throwing ape.

I asked what time he got on the ring because im assuming he has been there and i never asked Colin because iv already done so a while back and know he hasnt.

Thanks for your concern.

P.s I hope your not the small, fat, specky guy in the pictures in your garage.

You've got the cutest , fat little chip-eating fingers iv seen..


Annnnyway, All the best Chunk.

Timbaland xxxx
