v6 brakes on a 1.2 will slow you down mate, they are too big and heavy IMO.

I'd say get astra 2.0 brakes, only need v6 brakes on an XE conversion.

I don't know much about this area on Corsa's. I will be dropping an SRi engine in my car soon, and I want to upgrade the brakes (they are important to me!!) I've read that you can fit 2.0, V6 or Turbo brakes. Which brakes will fit behind 125" Astra LS wheels and what exactly will I need to fit them (parts wise) thanks, Craig
