I have just bought an L reg94 1.2i corsa and it has been lowered with lowering springs designed for a GSi, the standard shocks were left on!
It makes for a bumpy interesting ride!
I therefore need a suspension kit, but as I am new to corsa's don't know what make of kit or how low I should lower it. I will be using as an everyday car but want it to look reasonable!
I have looked at the galleries but don't know what these corsa's started off being. So therefore don't know if they were 1.2i's and then lowered 40mm, or GSi's lowered 40mm! has anyone got any piccies of a 1.2 lowered by 40 and 60mm?
Please help the fat_boy!

Havnt got pics but i had a 1.2 Nova and lowered it 45mm on spax! They're a good price but the ride is still a little bumpy! Other than that PCI do an awsome setup for about £250! Handles really well!!!! I wouldnt go 60mm ynless you got big wheels!

I have got a quote for both Gmax and Apex suspension kits for £220 each delivered! is that a good price, has anyone fitted these? Good? Bad? Think I will lower by 40mm, will 17" wheels look silly if I only lower it 40mm?

40mm on 17s will look right any lower then u may as well go for a smaller wheel

My mates(stig) lowered 60mm on 15's with G-Max SuperSport Suspension Kit
Mine lowered 60mm on same kit but on 16's
The G-max kits are good value for money, not the best but the best for the money
