Is there a 4 stud to 5 stud conversion kit or equivalent for the GP?

Had a crazy thought about fitting 314mm rotors from a 2004 Vectra,

Possible?

Anything is possible, I expect you'd need deep pockets though ... and I very much doubt there's an off-the-shelf kit available. That said, it shares the Corsa platform, so if such a kit exists for a Corsa ....

Thanks for the info

I think the newer corsa’s are 5 stud.

You’d need to change the hubs on all 4 wheels, the backs are part of the wheel bearing usually, the fronts may require a different knuckle and therefore completely different suspension from the corsa.

The biggest issue would not be the work, but could be getting insurance afterwards, depending on your age and the extent of the work needed

There are GP Abarth versions with the brembo 4 pot calipers, out there.. these are 305mm rotors (or they might even be 315mm).
Those are a straight swap... as fitting goes... but might need different proportioning valves/ different brake pump for the right front/rear bias.

The Vectra ones.. you can make the discs fit.. but what about the calipers?

I was thinking of using the calpers from the vectra too,
Hopefully they will fit

I'm gonna get some time on the weekend so i can see what the go is

I don't think your insurance covers Australia

Unfortunately not -different customs, laws, legal system, currency and the fact our insurers wouldn't really be able to send an engineer 20K miles to inspect a vehicle if there were issues!

Quite right Dan

Plus some insurers are easy on certain mods over here

Its not as if I'm gonna drop a V8 in my punto - well.................


All good with insurance
