rear discs and hub compatability

[stevei]

Thinking of doing a rear disc conversion on the Nova after reading the 'how to' article. Just wondering what rear hubs i should get from the srcappy? I'm thinking Astra MK3 but what about MK4? and corsa B, i would have though they will be okay.

My reason for the change is to replace the brake lines and route them inside the car and fit a bias valve with clubman hydrolic handbrake.

Corsa b didnt have rear discs. You need, astra mk2(Ideal if you find non abs gte stuff), mk3

Theres others but my minds gone blank at the moment. I dont think you can use cavalier stuff

mark 3 astra should be easy enough to find at the scappies then. i thought corsa gsi's were on rear discs?

Nope only the 1.8 sri corsa c had discs but dont know if they would be any good.

[stevei]

right then looks like i'll be looking for a mk3 astra then.

cheers pal
