Thanks anyway mate

Same 4 stud,

I also looked into this as it cost £400 for a complete set of rear discs from the Corsa C. As far as i found out, they should fit. Only problem will be the handbrake but this should be able to be sorted out in the same way that the Corsa B rear disc conversion is done.

the 1.4's in Australia have rear discs too. In fact the specs for both the front and rear discs/pads are the same for the 1.4 and 1.8.
