yeh near enough the same size think 1.6 ones are a tiny bit smaller, but 2ltr ones have wider vented disc's and sport disc's thinner

TBH I wouldn't lol, The piston is larger so the pedal feel isnt as good, Unless your getting up silly speeds on track and suffering from fade, Then GM pads and std discs are fine on a 1.6 setup.

IMO, Sell them, Buy some GM pads (About £15), and some cheap discs (£25ish?)
