Little update, its been a while. Decided not to drive it this year because my license is still on probation till march 2019.
And the car would not be fully legal here.
Testfitted the 7x15 Mangels steel wheels. But they are too wide:
They only fit in the rear with a bit of camber:
And I painted the rear springs:
I buyed a few coils and I sold my KW coilovers from my daily Corsa B.
At the moment the Corsa B is on FK coils, the Corsa A is still on TA Technix coils and I got some Bilstein B14 coils today für just 100€.
Iam waiting for them to see the condition and test how low they go and then I decide which Corsa gets which coils. But the back is gonna be a mix of different springs and shock absorbers.
Stay tuned!

I lower him when I get the 16 inch steelies back from sandblasting.
They are a inch thinner so they fit better.
In the front I think I will end up with 26,5cm from awheel center to fender with suspension travel.
If I would ride it sitting on the bump stops I could go lower but I dont want to destroy the car with the suspension sitting on bump stops the whole time.
And I have only 5cm room under the catalysator so I definitely need to shorten the 1.3 manifold and hang the pipe a bit higher.

Yeah I know, but classy wheels are always wide... And I dont want to pull the fenders cause it will rust much faster.
My plan is to paint the 16 inch steelies silver with dark grey original Opel center caps from a Corsa B. I think it would look good

Got some nice wheels which I wanna put on just for meets:
But I think Iam gonna need some new fenders which I roll (because I dont want to do that to the original ones=:
In the Back I hope I get away with just camber plates:
Today we did a little testdrive after waxing all holes and sealed the underside with protection:
Its so much fun!
