Direct from FK Website:

Opel Corsa A
year: 08.83 - 12.93 see footnote: 11,15,26
order number: FKOP101

Opel Corsa B
year: 03.93 - see footnote: 11,15,26
order number: FKOP201

Opel Corsa C
year: 2000 - see footnote: 11
order number: FKOP88

Opel Tigra
year: 11.94 - see footnote: 11,15,26
order number: FKOP301

No mention on there of height drops at all.

But there is ONLY one model of highsport coilover for each car, not multiple models with differing drop amounts, this variation in drop i believe is due to everywhere advertising them differently!!

No as FK DONT list a drop...

Only suppliers do and the amouint of drop varies from supplier to supplier.
But still i think most people who want coilovers are after a 60mm odd drop that still handles and wont knock your teeth out...

what happened was i ordered them from potn, they didnt process the order correctly, i rung up in a huff and said give me your suppliers number, so they did and i rung them up, said ' i want some highsports but as i have a very deep kit i cant have a dramtic drop' so he said he could send me a 20-80mm drop kit which i agree'd to, now being shipped from germany whenever they next send a batch of kits over

theres is only one kit from where you order them from

i spoke to FK themselves they knocked me so manyquid off for my order being bollocksed and they are going to countercharge the company for it.

why is it an issue that i will be receiving the fk highsport 20-80mm drop coilovers?

We are all sorted and the 8 required sets are taken, if anyone else wants one it might lower the price further for everyone...
