SupraLEDrears Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 Get the discs skimmed on the car using 1 of these,https://brakelathe.co.uk/ if you search on their site it will show garages local to you that can do it, problem with new discs is that once you put a few heat cycles through them the discs harden , i get mine machined after a couple of trackdays then they don`t warp again. What's the average charge? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bignum Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 I normally pay 100 quid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagman Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 I normally pay 100 quid. It would be worth you getting your discs Cryo treated - few days in liquid nitrogen - 3 x disc life , 50% on pad life and no warping Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm already paying 500 for discs and 250 on pads for the brembos I picked up off you, so extending their life would be awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jagman Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Braking performance is unaffected, the supercooling alters the structure of the metal , no micro cracking or warping - maybe nitrac can do them - no brainer for expensive discs due tripled lifespan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jagman Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 I think circa £50 a disc - and yes it does work , also worth it on some engine components if engine building Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
