so it could possibly be 70/50 if there nova springs......can running them springs affect any other things, like the camber?

past few corsas i have lowered have had a slight positive camber, nothing to worry bout really just make sure its tracked etc. the reason behind nova springs going slightly lower is that the corsa is ever soslightly heavier, and with the springs being designed for a lighter car compress slightly more, theyre usually more bouncy when fitted to corsas

ahh i see, that problem explains why my centre piece of my exhaust always scrapes! and yes its stupidly bouncy, the guy who done my MOT recommended to change the suspension as there is too much vibration in the car!

could be a broken spring but dont often find em in pairs at exactly the same hight plus theyd pick up on that on the mot. jack it up (if you can get a jack under) have a look what brand the springs etc are and look for some part numbers. probably find what hieght they are from them
