no part number from the shop, he had to ring as it wasnt in his book. The size black diamond have quoted seems to be leon cupra t and not r, but disk sizes can be found elsewhere on here, or wip your wheel off and measure.

got the guy at the shop to ring the supplier, yes definately £129 per pair for a leon cupra r 323mm discs drilled and grooved. Longton Motor accessories 01782 599304. Excellent shop.

I have just fitted a set of front to mine 312mm they cost £105 per pair drilled and grooved. Massive improvement.

bet they're not 323x28 LCR size brembos

When Galfer make theirs..... they will be the 2nd type of disk available I think. The main source being VAG themselves with a Brembo disk in the VAG box.

Bill, what do the Golf guys do when they purchase the Brembo GT kit, this seems to come with Grooved/Drilled rotas.

Are they able to order replacement grooved/drilled? or they have to order blanks??

Cheers Si

Doesnt look too promosing at the moment either Bill , Looks like you remain 'The Main Man' and I hope you will continue to do so because I'm fed up of being a 'mushroom' with suppliers playing games etc

They are Brembo in the GT kit. machined by brembo.
Red Dot machine std disks and sell them on as brembo also tho.... :no:

caught them out some time ago on "uprated brembo disks", grooved etc... "special castings" all complete crok of sh1t. Regular disks machined.. Not that thats a problem as that is what I do for the badger grooved ones, but I dont delude people into thinking theyre a special casting they get..... They are stupid enough to leave tell tales of OE supply on the disks they sold as special. :whistle: Deceptive - and never dealt with them since.

"spares" should be available yes.. I can get pricing, but this is via Brembo direct as I deal with them directly now myself. It will be higher than badger grooved ones tho I believe. Will confirm anyhow.

Hi Bill,
I started this thread trying to get impartial advice on your grooved discs from the guys and although the thread has done a major swerve I am convinced and will be in touch shortly.
Can you recommend any braided hoses & performance brake fluid to go with the GDs & F DS2500s & confirm whether you can supply & at what cost?

Cheers
