CJ Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 I recently bought these from Ebay and subsequently bought another set up so these are now surplus to requirements. The description said: "A set of Supra front brakes bought new and used on my Soarer for less than a year. Discs were left to rust prior to fitting as per Mycrofts recommendations and subsequently left to rust again. [This hardens them for prolonged use without them wearing away rapidly] Pads are not usuable but all else is perfect". I am looking for just £300 plus shipping or collection from Abingdon. I am assuming shipping will be about £30 or so as these are heavy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ark Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Discs were left to rust prior to fitting as per Mycrofts recommendations and subsequently left to rust again. "Left to rust" to make them harder? WTF? Where does Mycroft get this information? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ark Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Goodness knows. The man is a legend in his own mind I wonder if I could sell him my old warped disc brakes, telling him that "as the discs surfaces move from side to side, you get better cooling, thus better braking"?

CJ Posted August 31, 2006 Author Share Posted August 31, 2006 He would probably turn that around to suit his own theory and prove you wrong and him spectacularly right! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisSZ Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 The rust'll very quickly rub off though :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
