Not sure if 96 GSi had the same brakes as the earlier more powerful GSis?

Somewhere around that time. I know it got an engine with less power but not sure if they downgraded the brakes too

vauxhaul? are you crazy! go down to the scrapyard and find a donner car...

if you get them from a pre1993 astra gte they will fit straight on and be no more than 20-40 quid...

Ive no idea why they havent fitted, either he's only got half a caliper or is thick. Brakes right up until the mk3 Astra ended will fit fine.
