I get the idea that sleepers have to look standard, its just people say it >"LOOKS"< good, which it doesn't, you can get better looking sleepers...eg better colour, less doors.
More doors = more whores

thats what i was wondering 300bhp claim with 256mm to stop then again he has rear discs although not sure if this helps much or not
other then that would suprise a fair few people and thats what its all about

Standard. It will have had the brake bias set up to compinsate for the back discs whereas corsa's havent

its not just a case of bolting them on and its fine. re-pipe it with a bias valve and set it up yeah not much problem just most people that whack rear discs on dont do that.
so as someone else says, a standard hatch that comes with them has been set up for them. i wouldnt want a 300bhp corsa locking up from the rear before the front end at high speed, would you? nope. hence, rear discs make it worse.

i think in the general terms of corsa's it doesnt matter what it looks like. 90% of people in so called fast cars will consider it to be shite, so all corsas are virtually sleepers in the grand scheme of things.
