Not too sure if you are, but if you're asking about brakes as well I'd go for V6 288mm's. Straight fit with a little drilling and couple of spigot rings.

But if you want to save a bit more go for 256mm 2ltr brakes off a mk3 GSi or cav GSi(?) I had them on my corsa before the V6's and they were kack, warped discs I think though. Although I have heard good things about them.

How effective would it be? Been thinking about a cage, not sure to go full or half

2.0l brakes at front and standard drums on rear are sufficient.

Mine had V6 288mm on front and standard rear drums. The pedal was long but the stopping power was immense and they didnt fade half as much as 2.0l brakes did.
