you are running larger calipers on a smaller mastercylinder/servo so you have to press longer to get the same movement plus green stuff pads are shite and the brakes probably need bled

the brakes have been bled mate and they do work but you have to use alot more force than the ones on the wee corsa! Just wondering if i was missing something!

my sister's 1.2 Corsa C brakes are a lot more responsive than mine. could be a number of different things. im guessing its just the brakes set up or servo.

sounds like they need bleeding so the peddle is stiffer and brakes will bite quicker
