ive been talking to mexican sbout this, and bouncing ideas,
what engine is in the corsa?
best way to get performance from a car is to get the schassi right first, big brakes, good suspension, polly bushes etc,
get the best you can out of it, and follow basic maths,
lower centre of gravity, less body roll,
small wheels, faster aceleration, big wheels= slowwer acceleration, but a higher top end,
many many possabilities, if you speek to rob on here, he runs the silver civic with the yellow towing eye, well before that he was running a low powwered corsa c, but with a few tweeks it was actually a right little bugger to get past, it was anoying good, despite what abuse it got, i was allways impressed with how well it went, even if rob seems to drive without any limmit at all (im not kidding, hes nuts, lol)
any ways, back on subjet
shocks and springs, well id look at the forums andsee what has beenproven as working,
v maxx do ok springs, pritty good quality for the money,
bielstien shocks are good quality for the money,
you can probably get a good setup from ebay for aound 150 quid
ill have a look see what deals are around atm,
i think brandonlee is your man for some partsto get ya started
