Hi Alyn

Hope you are having a good weekend Can you supply something that will fit my Bugeye WRX rears without resorting to OEM ?

I'm trying to dig myself out of something I've cocked up on LOL ...... I run a front / rear Tar-ox set up (which was originally on Glenn's Revolution Motorstore red Blob wagon) and I needed to replace the rear discs. I measured them as 318mm and ordered that size but somehow I measured them wrong (I blame the cheap plastic tape measure that came in a christmas cracker). While I sort out my self made mess I was going to run the rears as OEM and remove the bracket. I need the car on the road as Its my daily driver

Any help would be most welcome.

Cheers

Shaun

Edited to add........how about something like this ?

Shaun,

I've just had a pair of 8 grooved rear disc's off Alyn for my Blobeye wrx (290x18mm ventilated- should be the same as your bug) for £110.

IIRC he does plain disc's (ie not grooved) for around £70.

Had some PF pads to go with them too and as usual Alyn's service was second to none..

Here's the disc's after a few coats of hammerite on the centres before fitting :

Shaun, call him (0191 410 3770) with a card and you'll have them in your hand the next day.

Alyn is one of the best suppliers I've ever used..!

What was your previous setup and do you feel any difference with the new rear discs and pads? Mine will need doing soon. Cheers Bob

Sorry for the late reply.

As Alyn stated PF don't do rear the discs.

We do have some lovely grooved discs available for all models though at unbeatable prices which can be matched up with a wide range of pads options.

PM for the latest deals.

I changed my rear pads to match the front (DS 2500) and the brakes felt much better, std. pads were rather "tired" though.

HTH
