I got a fair few little things to pick up but was wondering... if i saw, say a vectra, or an omega... could i take the brakes / calipers off and fit them st8 onto my 1.4 corsa sport? What else would i need? I have 15 inch alloys.

as long as they are 4 stud yea

but the 4 stud ones will be 2ltrs (256mm discs)
the 5 stud will be 288mm discs and should fit under ur 15's

if you look for a 4 stud vectra or a 2ltr cavalier then get the brakes and calipers

will look like this behind 14's

Stu has given you the answer to what you wanted to know, whats the point just taking second hand discs and using your old calipers, its the upgrade of bigger calipers and discs that gives you better brakes
