If anyone has any recommendations for corsa B's and front ends with 20 lumps - that would be ace...

The meatier the shock the better....

OK - no worries about the 4K stuff and coilovers are an option but not right now...

I was thinking more along the lines of bilstien cup stuff which the shockers are meaty as hell and are really good quality...

Something like this or even std items for another car that'll fit ill consider but im a bit of a noob to the corsa game...

Look the dogs nads - nice thick rated shocks - anyone else got these?

Used them with a C20XE?

Thanks

Bilsteins will be good, but you'll need the correct poundage springs.

OK - how will i know what the correct poundage of spring will be?

Will i need to weigh in the front end in some how? lol

Or does any have that info savvy?

I think we are using a -60mm apex kit... thats not gonna be any good im guessing?

Been looking on Courtney sport at the clubman springs - listed for a 2.0 corsa...Corsa 2.0 Priced per pair (Front Only - rear available) £56.00 ....

Guessing these will be the correct poundage rating and fitted with the above bilstiens would be a pretty good setup?

Link Here : http://www.courtenaysport.co.uk/default.htm

Any opinions on this setup? Is there a coilover kit with a good rated spring for XE conversions?

Many Thanks

Dave
