Re: corsa
he,
To put rear disks on you need to weld the original axle (at least that what i did).. you need to cut a piece of the axle where the drum brake is attached to.
The plate behind that needs to be replaced to fit the disks, everything else just comes of the astra axle.
I allso modified the axle to fit a astra handbrake cable, and modified the connection 4 the handbrake cable. (handbrake cable not realy nessesary).
you can also get a conversion from m-tech, i made mine from a friend who bought this, i just copied
so it is a pretty ugly job to do but drives great and looks nice:).. btw the best is to modify your mainbrake cilinder (dont know the word srry). the thing in the engine bay where your brake oil can is attached to.. (srry im dutch)..
and put some 3/20 or 3/40 brakepressure regulators between it.. or else it will brake to hard in the rear and you'll end up backwards.

Re: corsa
you'l need to get mk3 gsi rear discs, i dont think mk4 are the same? as the mk3 discs are also the hand brake drums aswell and they might be different size. but dunno you'l have to check.
