i think you can use the fiat coupe turbo disc's but i think you need to open the bolts holes out by a mm

yep, coupe turbo discs (the 16v ones IIRC, not the 20v ones) then drill the hole 1mm out from the centre and they'll go on fine.

this is the setup i use, the 20v turbo fiat ones need drilling out 2mm and a spigot ring needs making which is very thin (about 1.5mm) also the calipers need to be the smaller ones from an earlier cal turbo which have slightly smaller pistons and run 284mm discs. the later type use v6 brakes which are 287mm discs and have a slightly larger piston. when fitting u need to put a washer between each caliper mounting bolt but betwwen the auctuall caliper to space it out towards the outer tyre edge as the fiat uses a different offset which mmakes the disc not sit central i the calliper. sounds abit long winded but is dead obvious when you fit them, and as the piston size is bigger than 16v but smaller than the v6 brake pedal dosnt seem spongy but still stops the car on its nose. the best setup for a corsa imo.
