im fedup working on my 1300 sr brakes, if they sit for more than 2 days without moving they start sticking and on long journeys the brake fluid boils and the pedal is rock hard

looking to change to more,relaible calipers etc

anyone point me in the direction of what fits,i was told corsa sport 1400 brakes fit?

on standard sr alloys so they have to fit under them

any help appreciated

Abny later ATE calipers will be 100% better - Corsa Sport will be fine.

Yeah the corsa sport vented 236 mm set up will fit straight on and be a 100% improvement. They'll also fit behind 13" steels/alloys.

is it true only 1400 sport caliper fit and not 1600 sport or are they any different?

The 1400 are 236x20mm and the 1600 are 256x22mm iirc The 1600 ones will fit - but you may have to trim the caliper slightly, or fit a spacer
