Thorin Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Toyota through Steve Manley, or just a blueprint part from your local motor factor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest anthonyonions Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Will check the motor factors and halfords trade out. Was mainly wondering what online sources people had used. Toyota I would imagine I'd have to sell my soul before purchasing from there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveC Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 There's a set of UK spec front and rear discs and pads on eBay at the moment for £300 + P&P - here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dnk Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Through Steve Manley i think i paid approx £75 per disc so not exspensive and work very well with new Dot 5 fluid. I wouldnt use aftermarket discs unless someone had good previous experiance with them, ive bought motor factors discs for BMW's and yes there cheap but they were crap at stopping the car compared to o/e.

BOB B Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 3G disc's, they do UK size, also see whifbitz and 3G web site. Bob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 As others have suggested already the OEM option through a decent supplier like Steve Manley tends to be the best bet, even online bargain places like http://www.brakesint.co.uk are charging similar money to him for bits like this.

Guest anthonyonions Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Thanks all. I think another options I'm going for is a good condition set of used discs. These wouldn't be run, but just used for mocking up caliper placement, trying to shell out as little as poss for the mocking up stage of the project I'm doing. Anyone have any used discs laying about? Ta, Ant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
