the easiest option is 256mm 2.0ltr brakes found on Astra's Calibra's Cavaliers... if you get discs calipers and caliper carriers they just bolt straight onto the corsa equipment. These should fit under 14's
For a bit more work you can fit bigger v6 calipers, carriers and discs from v6 cav/calibra's the calipers and carriers bolt straight on, but the discs will need to be converted from 5 stud to 4 stud and you will need spigot rings to centre them up. these will fit under most 15's but not all some people have had to grind the calipers for them to fit

Thanks for the quick reply, where can I source parts for either types of upgrade, apart from ebay?
