Anyone heard of the "Anti dive kit"...which stops the front end bouncing around.....i think most of you know that corsas/novas like to bounce.
One of my mates has a nova with a anti dive kit fitted...just wondering where to get them from

Done a quick mooch around google and such.
Appears most people lower the tie bars and call that 'anti-dive'

lowering the tie bar should in theory stop the front lifting as much under acceleration and stop it diving as much under braking

Im not one to argue but there is a hell of a lot of strain through those mounts when you are accelerating or braking, Are washers a good idea?

Mines spaced 25mm per side but To be honest I wouldnt use washers. If your handy with a welder and drill you can make sone up out of 25mm box section, seen that done before

Oh and if you need longer bolts they arent a normal metric thread. go to the scrappy and get some vauxhall head bolts with a normal hex head on top and use those
