seen it a while ago on here for sale, love the colour and you must have somes balls to drive it without rear disc conversion!
nice looking motor, dont usually like body kitted cars but that doesnt look too bad

you have gotta be brave to drive a corsa b with a rear disc brake conversion.
They completely upset the braking,nothing wrong with new shoes,drums and cylinders sith bigger brakes up front.

Really? I was thinking of doing a rear disk conversion.
I have 2.0 brakes on the front and I'm not happy with them tbh.

try v6 brakes up front and a rebuild of the rears 2.0 brakes are completely shit and av had them on standard cav gsi's calibra's astra gte's/gsi's novas's and corsa's i swear by v6 discs pads and calipers off vectra's.

But that would be pointless because I can't upgrade the master cylinder and I don't have ABS.
The back end on my car kicks out under heavy braking.
Are your V6 disks re-drilled btw?

the master cylinder does not need upgrading well maybe to a 1600 corsa one thats all.
It doesnt matter wheather or not you have abs either.
Yeh just redrill them to 4stud loads of people up here can do it i have a template for doing it.
If the back end kicks out now try putting discs on the rear.
Check that your load sensing valve is not seized that may be causing the back to lock up.
