anyone know where to get some gt3 discs online??

[martin thomas]

The front discs on my gt3 are starting to crack a little where the holes are drilled can someone reccomend a good online shop to buy some new ones?I'm not to worried about oe parts but i would prefer them to look standard ie drilled and not grooved.
cheers martin.

They will be the MK2 variety not the MK1's(I am assuming you have the 4 pot front calipers and not the 6 pot upgrade). Try asking the price on MK1's. Also check out the OPC, I think you'll be surprised that they might not be that much dearer, if at all.

Don't p*ss about buying the OEM discs go down the ALCON or Brembo replacement floating disc route, particularly if you track the car at all. Units cost slightly more initially because they comprise the separate hat and disc. But they last significantly longer, work better, do not crack and are less than the OPC items. Call JZ Machtech or Parr for a quote.

Since you originally said that you preferred the OE look, you could get Cup disks (Carnewal do them at <600 euros/pair). IIRC these are basically the same as standard disks but thinner (i.e. lighter, but will take much less wear before you need to replace them. If you are replacing for cracking without significant wear though this is somewhat irrelevent).
