Cheers for that peeps! Very helpful, I'll remember to keep my questions simpler in future. Im a member on FiatForum.com and have been for a year or so, I admit it gets annoying when you have to read an essay before the questions pop up, I promise to keep it simple!! Im from Chesterfield, I work for a company based next to Meadowhall, a mate of a mate works at Powerflow and can get me a lttle discount but I have heard really good reports of Ascars work so i might pop down and have a lookie, where are they based, is it in Hillsborough? Me and my mate always pop down to Source to have a chat, I really trust there work so if Im going to get any work done on my ICE, I'll be chucking my money in their general direction. Have you seen that MTX van they've bought? Used to be the loudest vehicle in the world, so they thought they'd have a challenge and try and build the loudest in the UK. They've stripped it and are getting ready to sound proof etc... and get it ready to have an install built in. | |

your first question, if your buying a car a year old u shouldnt need to worry to much about bodywrk or engine needing attention unless it really has been hammered!! 17's with a 30mm drop should be ok as long as wheels are the right offset!! Not 100% sure as i have a corsa B...no idea at all about ICE in corsa C's - u2u painZ he has just done an install!! IMO dont get a kit, keep things subtle...powerflow exhaust are a good way forward just make sure they use grade 304 steel!! :D Cant remember what else you asked, hope it kinda helps :thumbs: | |

first of all if your thinking of a second hand one things to look for are.they are prone to steering racks giving up turn wheel left and listen to see if it knocks,squeaky brakes and leaking door seals apart from that there not too bad.17's if you get the right offset eg anywhere between et42 and et45 you can drop it easily -30mm and more with no arch mods at all | |

17's lowered 30mm with correct offset and you shouldn't have much trouble there m8... | |
