the rear of min is currently on -70mm springs though in a few previousd pictures was on -110mm springs. Unfortunately the rear end won't go much lower unless you start cutting into the rear turrets and modify the swingarm as far as I can see. Need to see pics of yours  |

Since you commented on my Nova project, I thought I should find yours buddy ;-) Years ago, when I was in the PNG, I raved to people about the potential of the Saloons and people thought I was being daft. The 3-door hatch was the only way to go back then. I'm so glad that more and more saloons are on the scene......there's always a few at the VBOA show at Billing. The low, small-wide-wheel look is the only look for me that works on these. A Saloon on the usual 16" Allessios wouldn't work, in the same way that small-wide-wheels don't work on a hatch IMO. This is looking well cool and I've always looked at the 4-door saloon as a mini-MK2CAV (which I drive daily). Keep up the good work and keep it running no matter what! We can't let these old Nova's die! |

Tip for making it lower on the cheap dude, astra mk3 top mounts. Apparently they chop about an inch off. I was tempted to use them on mine (2door 1.0 Nova) but ended up using the original ones.

I'll look into getting some  Not much change, but I couldn't resist these cheap Golf steels on ebay. I hoped they would suit the Nova and they actually turned out to look better than I thought, shame about the massive tires but they do make it a bit more comfortable hehe. Just need to clean them up really     |

Do you think this tip works on the Corsa B too? I have some lowering springs to fit, but would get some of these top mounts too if they fit/work... ...please feel free to call me a plonka if it's a stupid idea. (No don't, I'll cry). ;D Love your work, by the way. |
