As long as you have the carriers off the vectra to match the calipers, then you'll be fine. I had the exact same set up on my Corsa and it all went together no problem. Make sure you have atleast 15" wheels as well, i had no room for stick on weights between my caliper and 15" alloy

Mine weren't spongy at all, braided hoses help to try prevent that as well

Dont really need a spigot ring. calipers, pads, discs, braided hoses and decent fluid is all you need

Go somewhere quiet to test them out properly a few times before you have to slam on in traffic too just so you know how good they are. I got hit with a few things off my parcel shelf when i first used mine
