Corsa b brake upgrade!?

Post by WA17ER »

Hey guys,

I'm looking at having a bit more stopping power for my corsa, I take it the next size up are of a astra 2l or a calibra?

If so are they a simple change? Or do you have to alter the hub or braking system at all?

Regards....

As long as you stay 4stud then it's a straight swap. Anything in the VX family with four stud vented discs should fit.

I used to fit SRi Cavalier/Calibra discs and calipers.

But before you go to that effort I would suggest that you flush the brake fluid out from your existing brake system and replace it with new fluid. You might well be surprised at the effect this will have!

As above change the fluid and if budget allows go for braided flexis
