Thinking of upgrading my 1.2 16v brakes, what do you guys do? The same as the Nova guys? Go for a set of 2.0l cavvy brakes?

personally wud go for cavvy or astra as calibra hubs are part of teh suspension leg and wud make it sit very high and you will have to run atleast 15s if you do 2.0 brakes !

Hi everybody.

This is my first post in this forum. I'm from Mexico where you can find lots of Corsa B's.

I own a '99 3Doors with the C14NZ. Not a lot of power, :( but I really enjoy it. Hope to install a Multi port fuel system to gain some HPs.

I know that with this engine I don`t really need bigger brakes, but it will definitely look sweet. :)

I think I can find easily astra discs and calipers, but, what else do I need to make this upgrade? Hubs? Are we talking about 1.8 and / or 2.0 Astra parts?

Thanks a lot for your replies
