    Unfortunately, at the end of the day I had 2 broken kw shocks, but it's ok, my plan is to replace them all with gaz coilies

    Is that a standard car or has it been built? Never seen one before

    Re: Corsa C X20XEV (slow build)

    update, Unfoortunately my pockets are empted again so proggress will be slow down too

    the rear antiroll seems to working fine, the tail of the car still remains stiff when hard cornering, even with the dead KW shocks. But I need to test it o higher speeds.

    Brakes also better than heavy drums, the abs still working, but I need to bleed them again and remake the handbrake cables, I made them too short

    Maybe I need new longer wheel studs, the have 1cm of thread bolted !!
