What brakes would be best for the front? I.e what size?

Also a mate has some 236mm brakes he said they came of the back of an astra gte, so a 1.6 or a 1.8, would these be fine the back of the corsa, and would they go straight on?

Cheers

Can change the rear brakes, though it's a lot of work... You need to grind, weld and drill... I got the parts, but can't be arsed to do it now
