i had rear nova springs on my GSi, only thing different is the length, nova ones are shorter. Tell him to watch how he positions it in or it could fall out.

o rite so the nova ones woupld lower it about 20-30 mm more than corsa springs would? so it would just be like putting much shorter springs in, increasing the chances of it bottoming out etc?

Nova springs generally drop a Corsa 10-20mm more than they would do a Nova.
