Dont think the Corsa C is a direct replacement mate.

Apparently the 1.8 SRi C have excellent brakes??

They won't fit a C. But, as above the 1.8 SRI brakes are meant to be a good upgrade.

Are 1.8 SRI brakes even that good? They only use 260mm discs. My SRi CDTI has the 280mm front discs and even those are far far from 'good'. Average braking force and crap pedal feel. I've never driven any corsa with good brakes.

later vauxhall's (Astra G, Corsa C etc) use different spacing between the caliper bolts compared to previous models.
