[brakedust]

Just thought this may be of use to people as I had a nightmare finding some of these, and the price seems good

I've enquired about a group buy price (on the off chance of a discount) I'll keep people updated if there is any interest

Yes please I will take a group buy on these if possible.

[dirty boy]

Interested, but I will see, have spent a lot recently!

[brakedust]

Right... he says we can have a 20% discount... and I can probably get him down to £230 if there are a few of us..

How many takers?

[Whitey]

If these fit my RR Tuscan then I'm interested.

Im not sure fella, you will need to find out.

[Whitey]

they have 4.5 Cerb calipers and bells from year 2000, which were fitted to RR Tuscans so they should but I will obviously double check before ordering.

[Steve_T]

They won't fit Whitey - 8" PCD on these, 7" PCD on the bell and rotor setup on Cerb 4.5 and Tusc S.

I'm interested

ah, cheers Steve!

[Gazzab]

Sorry what do these fit ? A 4.5 with Tuscan single piece or 4.5 with sep rotor and bells?

Neither. The ad is for rotors only, so they'd need matching bells. The 8" PCD mentioned in the ebay advert is different to that used by TVR for the original two piece setup. It may work with the large bells group buy, you'd have to check the specs match.

[spitfire4v8]

The tvr 2 piece bell/disc combo has an 8 inch pcd.

Edited to say on looking at the AP website they only list an 8" PCD so I'm clearly talking b*llocks.

OK so these look like a potential replacement for the 4.5 disks from the two piece set up. Are they likely to be an improvement ?? Now wish I hadnt sold my old set of bells that I had lying around !

[tuscan_al]

I have a set of ap 322mm bell and rotors, as a spare set, never got around to using them. If these 330mm fit my other bells with current 330mm on, I will stick the 322mm bells and rotors on the classifieds.

Tuscan drilled discs are a direct swap, cost half as much and don't warp like 4.5 Cerb discs do. Had it done on both my 4.5's

But they crack and lack performance.

[Jasper Gilder]

I'll take your word - only did a couple of trackdays on them in the second Cerb - never had one crack though.

Perhaps you slow down more than me!!

[Gazzab]

tbh I am happy with my Tuscan ones on current Cerb as like you had lots of issues with warping on APs. I did have probs with Tuscan brakes once though (on last cerb) but that was the pads glazing with multiple 150 mph plus heavy braking sessions over 6 or 7 hrs.
