im not sure if this answers your question. but gsi suspensions are slightly different to a 1.2 8v suspension. i have gsi suspension at the back and they needed some slight work to be fitted. (did this only since the guy i bought them from didn't know that it was from a gsi and sold them to me for the normal, cheap, price)

just had a read up on it through Various Web pages and yes the GSi was -15mm lower than other Corsa models, but the 1.6 16v Sport shared the same standard suspension as the 1.4 16v sport which wasnt Lowered

yes. i know it seems like a stupid question. but i was flicking through that max power haynes corsa manual thing in kevin coopers the other day and it said that sports also have gsi suspension. that is what confused me because i was sure it didnt. hence why i asked
