So I bought some EBC pads and discs that fit a 1.6 8v astra (2001) and I was originally going to use them on my astra but due to unforeseen circumstances, a crash. Decided it's being fitted to my 1.0 corsa (w reg 2000). So I took the calipers off the astra for my corsa.
went to fit it all today and realised that the carrier (I think its the carrier...) doesnt fit around my new discs, not even nearly. I went to take off the carrier part from my astra and discovered that its a different part as its much bigger and is attached to other parts and the old one on my corsa is not....
So..what carrier do I buy to house my calipers? Cheers

From what I remember brakes off an Astra G won't fit a corsa B.
You'll be best off with a 2.0L brake conversion from the older astra gte/GSi Or those from a V6 vauxhall.
