Koni 'yellow' kit...
Was meant to be -40mm, but it's a bit lower at front now due to engine 
To be honest I actually prefer the handling with the 2L -- very predictable understeer in wet, and doesn't feel like the front end is going to take off on bumps

g-max finest 60mil kit on the 20xe sri, handles well, stiff enoiugh and no problems. let corsa has avo coilovers on it, simply awsome. its well low on the back and yer a decent height at the front, seen as its fully adjustable and that

Not sure if you will need 60mm on back -- this is 40mm all round:

I've heard that the Koni yellows and the Eibach 50mm springs are supposed to be very good.

not on a corsa but nova, spax rsx which is front coilovers 50-80mm and rear adjustable 60mm. cant really comment on it yet as car is off the road more or less all the time but i can say it was better than before which was lowering srpings on standard shocks.
