Does anyone know the part number and a good place to buy rear discs and pads for a GTO3? I have looked on Nobleparts but could not find the info.

I did read about someone looking into getting grooved discs made up for the rear but the thread ended without a conclusion.

Cheers

The rear disc assy is available from Noble only as it's bespoke to the Noble, and AP's will not supply to any one else or sell modified with grooves etc.

Hi Andy,

That was me, I spoke to AP and they were quite happy to produce the disks with grooves rather than drilled to match the uprated fronts, but would need the OK from Noble ( via a quick email or call). I then spoke to Noble and asked for this, stating that we would still buy them through the dealer network etc. Lee said a flat NO. frown
I still cant understand why, as it would have meant more sales for the dealers and people buying them so the fronts and rears matched( even if they didnt require replacing!! )

I might try asking again now that Lee is not there.

As for supply of the rears, I think it is a dealer only option for the disks, as they are a noble specific disc from AP. Pads are a different matter. If you speak to Questmead, they have stock of the DS2500's at around the £75 mark. (or you can get them from a dealer at around £140.)

Thanks guys, I guess I will be having to get the disc's from a dealer.

I have just order the pads from Questmead, although the price seems to have gone up slightly. Apparently they could not do the same discount as they did for you Alex. They are now £93.60 + vat for the rears and £76.16 + vat for the fronts (this is for DS2500).

Glad they helped, nice blokes.

I guess as I was buying grooved discs and both front and rear discs at the same time I got a better deal.
Still £50 saving is still worth having. smile
