is the tutorial on big brake conversion just for the front wheels, if so can the backs be done, eg replacing the drums.

its not a straight swap like the fronts. you need to cut the whole end of the rear beam off and weld it to a corsa one (dodgey) or cut the plate off where the hub studs and if it has it, abs sensor goes thru. Then you need to re-drill the holes in the corsa beam to match, and weld the plate on.

Its a lot of work and not worth it imo as a performance modification
