OK strictly speaking they will be valved different due to the different weight of Nova v Corsa. But physically they are both the same size....

yeah and while im on, when people say a drop of 40mm will knacker original shockers thats bollox. theyre designed to take it. when lowerin a car your compressin a gas filled shocker by 4cm. that you would get from goin down a cobbly road. as shocker goes up and down. simple really.

they should fit in theory since the corsa b is jsut a rebodied nova :lol:

 posted on 18th Feb 04 at 22:51

they'll fit structurally yeah, but they are designed for the curb weight of a corsa b. due to difference in weight between nova and corsa ie, corsa heavier the shockers are designed around the weight. so a damping affect with corsa shox on a nova would mean the return travel would beslower cuz of less weight on.
