Everybody says that a Quaife ATB transforms the handing characteristics of their car. Are they worth it? That depends on how your wife intends to drive the car.

Pretty quick my wife drives she brakes later than me I wish I had a second brake on passenger's side lol I will give it some death too I've spent money on this c20xe so I want my fun out of it. And it will be worth more if we sell and I want it to look standard with 1.2 sxi badges on it etc I like sleepers the look on peoples faces says it all lol. She wants a wolf in sheep clothing so why not use the xe in the Corsa c I've got the full kit. But are the Quaife's As good as they say better traction off start Etc. ? So are they good and do what they say on the tin type thing ? Cheers

Well if your misses drives like that then keep it standard otherwise it will be on its roof in a field. Maybe you should consider the brakes before improving traction.
I've never seen you do anything in the 3years you've been on the site. So again another pointless question

Agreed with Troy. Corsa are not designed for 2 liter lumps. If it's meant for track use, then fair enough. But otherwise.. Why bother?

Examples of sleepers:

Ford Crown Victoria.

Vauxhall Carlton Gsi3000.

Holden Commodore.

Corsa? :lol:
