As above, thinking of fitting my grooved discs & greenstuff pads form the Nova onto the Corsa, as the 1.0l Nova greally doesnt need uprated pads etc, the Corsa being my daily aswell it seems more usefull

Thing is, is their much difference between the stopping power of Corsa 1.4 brakes and 2L Cally items? if theirs not i might just shove some new standard items back in :thumb:

If your keeping your engine as the same standard as it is now,i wouldn't even bother,as corsa brakes are fine,keep on nova as brakes on novas are ****e !!!!!

yes. you will notice a differance. the main fact is you will be able to brake harder and longer before you get brake fade and will cool down much faster whgen hot. if youve got the brakes its not exactly a hard job to swap them.
