I was just wondering if it was at all possible to pinch the lowering kit off my boyfriends nova and throw it on my corsa b?
A friend of mine reckons it is?

Please help

wouldnt throw it on. try bolting it on, it generally gives a better fit.


the answer is yes, it will fit but the springs will be softer than the ones meant for a corsa (lower poundage)

Done it. See what you mean about the springs! V bouncy. Wouldn't recommend it too anyone.

Have got new springs on order but need some more advice.

Can anyone give me the set up dimensions (camber etc) for a -50mm drop and how they can be acheived?

Cheers all
