I own '94 GSi & understand that these calipers are pretty good (stopped the Astra GTE ok) apart from the calipers what else would I need to fit this to my GSi??

Your car doesn't have Astra brakes.

Calipers, Pads, Discs, Anti pad vibration spring (optional). Might as well throw in some braided hoses while you have the caliper off.

The GSi's brakes are actually the same size at 256mm.

But they are vented instead of solid like the Corsa brakes.

Yeah, although the piston in the Astra ATE brakes is larger and produces better braking force.

256mm corsa brakes are vented, the astra discs are thicker though
