Right i know a lot of other modifiers (mainly the guys that drive peugeot's) do both front and rear brake upgrades from other cars higher up the range.
Is this possible on the Corsa B?
I mean i know my 1.2 has drum brakes at the rear but is it possible to upgrade the rear beam to that from a higher spec corsa B which has disc brakes?
and the same applies for the front braking setup - can the discs & calipers be changed for that from a higher spec vauxhall to improve braking at low cost??
I know that is a bit vague but hope it gets across the message!
Thanks for any help guys

No Corsa came with rear discs. Astra stuff will go on with some modification.
As for the fronts - yes, Astra GTE spec, or Vectra V6 which are redrilled for 4 stud hub.

cool thanks for that Ian.
As for rears, i wasnt aware no corsa's came with rear discs, thought the top spec'd ones did!
thanks for that info, do you know exactly how much work is needed for the Astra rear beam conversion and exactly what parts are needed? will i need handbrake cable and possibly handbrake from the astra? and what else
thanks again for any replies
