Would an upper strut brace really do much or is it not worth doing?

I think it makes a difference to lowered cars but it could be a placebo effect knowing it's there and just imagining that it's better

I know from experience that a front and rear strut in a lowered glanza helps fight understeer. I agree Johnny the placebo effect comes into it alot

Just thought they're quite cheap and if it will sort abit of roll before i lower it it could be worth it

They're just a cool thing to own imo. Not sure if it will affect body roll much in corsas on standard suspension, but it should help cornering slightly when you are lowered

It will help a little due to the age off most corsa b's and then having lost a little rigidity, but as Johnny says, you won't really notice it that much, not unless you push your car hard into every bend!
