how? and what difference will it make as the shock is bolted to the upright?
The only proper way is to have a complete new upright with a longer shock mount.

yeah but if the shock is upright and you move it out, it won't bolt up anymore.
It won't change the angle either.

mmm suppose you could do the elongated bolt thing, but then the damper angle will be worse, which means worse damping.

its just a bracket to space the hub from the shock though that wouldnt be hard for me to do can do it all at work no problem its just how wide to go and what shafts to use how much wider is the track on a calibra compared to a corsa the kit that lad is selling is +50 each side to take calibra shafts but the corsa is a bit wider to start with so could probably do 30mm each side
