Super Light Brake Disks Group Buy

[Dixcelbrake]

so you all agree with Sea fright right?

It will take about 6-8 weeks to arrive in UK.

 

[Unnamed_warrior]

fine by me ...

 

[T666YPR]

I should be on that list too 8)

Can I just make sure of something:

In the picture the disc is only 4 stud,I'm assuming that it's just a comparison pic and we'll be getting 5 stud?

Boats fine by me,but put them on a very fast boat,as I'm lacking in the patience dept. :wink:

The pictures of the disc is for DC2 type r, the DC5 one will be 5 studs.

It will take around 1week to produce the disc in the manufactory as we have 4 orders, if the ship not going to delay(finger cross), you will have the disc in 8 weeks.

Cheers,

Dixon

The sample pic is from a DC2. I think Dixon has these on his car.

PS A fast ship is a good idea.

 

[Dixcelbrake]

Here are what I have got for my car.

 

[Zero7]

Dixon,

I'm also interested in these disks, can you please tell me if they are actually made in an AP (Automotive Products) factory, I know the Porsche brakes are and AP and Lockheed are one of the same.

Do you also know if the pads are ok for normal road use or are they designed for fast road/tract use?

 

[Dixcelbrake]

Hi,

The Disc are made by AP Racing. Very good quality disc, Lockheed are popular brand in WRC Rally car.

Both Type of Brake Pad are good for normal road use but if you want some track action as well the SA pad would be the better one as the working temp is from 50-850 degree.

Cheers,

Dixon

 

[Zero7]

Thank,

Could you please put me down for a set, I'll also have the road type pads as I nealry killed myself on a track pad once.... (they take a while to warm up, not too suited to road).

 

[Dixcelbrake]

Zero 7, are you ok to send by Ship?

Hi, Ship is fine, as I will be doing springs and tyres at the same time. Thanks, Av.

 

[Dixcelbrake]

Great! What springs are you putting on?

 

[Zero7]

Can't decide on eibach or spoon, and I'm not sure if there are other I should be considering. I want it to lean less when cornering hard but be more compliant and less skitish.

 

[Dixcelbrake]

The Spoon Progressive Springs are very good, its give you a better ride feels and lowed your car 25mm and its only £200 + shipping

 

[Dixcelbrake]

Tanabe GF210 is also a good choise. front spring 4.2 KG/m Rear spring 8.1kg/mm.

So there not exactly cheap once you add the shipping and fitting. Do you know how the Tanabe compare on performance.

 

[Dixcelbrake]

Postage will be around £20-30, fitting will be around £50.

Tanabe is the biggest damper and springs factory in Japan. There quality is second to none.
Had a mate got the Spoon spring on his ITR DC2, good ride and feel good, but its just feel a little bit not stable round the corner. Took it off after 4months and got the Tanabe on now, he was so regert that he didnt get the Tanabe at first!

All i can say about Tanabe is xthumbup

I thought Tanabe were exhaust specialists? are they also big into suspension? (I guess this discussion would be better suited to the thread below)

 

[Dixcelbrake]

Yep, they have the biggest factory of making Exhaust and suspension.

 

[Dixcelbrake]
