well iv dropped the tank down tonight and i cant see any problem with it at all..... so i just removed the filler neck and then put it back on again... and then strapped the tank back up. hopefully thats all it was anyway iv put the polly bushes in the rear beam, i'l take a photo of that when i go back down now it looks sweeeeeeeeet and i bought some goodridge stainless braided hoses off ebay tonight of someone who was selling a brand new set of four, and i managed to get him to sell and post them for £25 so thats an amazing bargain!! so while im at it i might as well put them on

and thats about it so far. oh i also loosened the bolts for the rear beam aswell, and for the suspension struts on the rear so thats pretty much ready to drop off apart from the brake lines.

right lads, i have been working on the corsa rear end again, and you wana check out how low i COULD make it sit now iv put the 17inch alloys on which are 205/40 ET40 and i have done some inner arch work etc and this is how low i have managed to make it fit without any scrubbing, i'l upload the photos in a min =]

right here are the photos, please read the tags and then look at the pictures from top to bottom.

normal alloys with springs out jacked up to bump stops


17" alloys with springs out jacked up until they started rubbing


and again 17" alloys jacked up until they started rubbing


17" alloys with springs out, jacked up until pretty much bump stops and rubbing.


and again 17" alloys with springs out, jacked up until pretty much bump stops and rubbing.


and now with springs out, and even more arch work and other modifications and how far iv managed to get it to sit without any arch scrub


and again now with springs out, and even more arch work and other modifications and how far iv managed to get it to sit without any arch scrub



bearing in mind this is not how it will be sitting, but this is only how far i have managed to make it sit without any arch scrubbing. i still have to wait until my 80mm springs arrive, and then i can carry on welding and modifying the rear beam and arches to take the 17" alloys.

and a grinder im going to have to adjust it slightly, but bearing in might this is if the suspension was FULLY compressed on the 80mm springs. (theirs no springs in their atm) and yep cheers guys im not going to go for discs on the back for this pvs, im going to sit low instead

[PRICER]

oh yea another thing. what colour do you think i should paint them? i was thinking white but what does everyone think?

[PRICER]

that look absolutly mint mate, if you can get it like that then big hats off to you

can get it like that it is like that they're 205 wide aswell, all i need now are the 80mm springs, which should be in the post, and then just got to cut off one of the bump stops on my rear shock, as they'v got a slieve already over them with about 4 or 5 bump stops so i'l have to size up and see how many i'l have to chop off. but yep

right, couple more updates, im still waiting for my 80mm springs to arrive so since then i kinda roughly worked out how low she should be sitting on the 17inch alloys, as the 80mm springs are about the same height at a coke can, so when compressed should be around 3inches. so i found some 3inch wood and put between the rear beam and the body and then i dropped it to the ground to get a rough idea of how it will be sitting and this is how its turned out.

its still in the arch which is nice, and with everything back in the corsa and with it full of stuff for PVS it should be sitting mint oh and iv also painted the drums again. and 2moro im going to get some paint for these 17's so which colour do you think i should go? white?
