I've been running the V6 calipers on the wrong way for 2+ years, but no-ones ever noticed, not even me but the braided lines have been rubbing on the tyres. Got the rear discs on, went down the road, bang, blew a hole in a braided brake line Poor car was stuck outside last night at Lee's mum n dads house. Been all over the place and even had to end up borrowing Lee's new braided lines. Pedals really bad, goes to the floor at the mo, but, once thats sorted (got to re-bleed the system and eventually play with that damn bolt at the brake pedal), then im hoping to ahve a shit hot set of brakes. I can feel them biting hard, then the pedal just softens off to the floor and ruins it, but once its all done and right, its gonna be great





having rear discs aren't really going to improve upon the rear drums that much as the rear only uses 20% or so braking on corsa's i believe?

Matt i know, and its 25% on the rear. But they do bite harder, and they look a million times better than drums.

depends on the wheels I would say. if you have large oversized wheels then I suppose discs may look better but if your wheels are small or cover the drums with the design then who is going to notice.
