Hi

my suspention setup
for some reason dont make me happy
i'm running some modified (to fit in corsa) Clio Sport Cup bilstein/eibach coilovers
wich are for TRACK use!

But something is rong
although its fine for TrackDay use, and has poundage (harness) to hold the engine weight
is making funny things to the ride in street... its instable, cant hold a straight line
and yesterday i needed to break at 110mph and allmost crashed
coz he pulled to the left side...

i'm also running Quaife ATB
could this be responsable for something?



I'm thinking in going
for KW, Bilstein or H&R coilovers for corsa
what do you think?

Also ear that i should use Astra GSi springs
on the corsa coilovers, is this correct?


Please advice and help.

Thanks

Wouldnt bother with Astra GSi springs.

Just tell KW, Bilstein or H&R your car spec and they should be able to do something with the correct poundage springs for you
