Nightcrawler Posted July 16, 2005 Share Posted July 16, 2005 Someone mentioned a while back about a place that can slot your brake discs. Name, address, phone number and price please. I think they were in Green Fields. And, should you get all 4 done, or is it ok to just do the fronts?

Maxx Posted July 16, 2005 Share Posted July 16, 2005 check out how much they charge u, i "might" have some AP slot rotor from my next car to swap + cash adjustment Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/80741-disc-slotting-place/#findComment-1467845 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightcrawler Posted July 16, 2005 Author Share Posted July 16, 2005 Black32 - but I am worried that might increase the front bias, whereas I would rather try to balance the car's braking, than make it worse. Chapman - what is your next car? And how much cash adjustment are we talking? I think from memory they charge $60 per rotor (or pair?) - not sure which - can anyone confirm?

Maxx Posted July 16, 2005 Share Posted July 16, 2005 atm it "should" be a r32 gts-t 4 dr will be confirm in a week or so if not something around 10-15 mark a cheaper car i will driving around all the time and have maximum fun without worrying too much like the S15 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/80741-disc-slotting-place/#findComment-1467888 Share on other sites More sharing options...
grepin Posted July 17, 2005 Share Posted July 17, 2005 I had my fronts done at Race Oil Distribution - 14 Watervale Drive Greenfields. PH : 82852933.

Nightcrawler Posted July 17, 2005 Author Share Posted July 17, 2005 Thanks Greg .... was there noticeable before and after difference in performance - or is it more for looks? Have you found your brake pad wear to have increased since you had it done?

Have you found your brake pad wear to have increased since you had it done? Cheers, Andrew I did Booster brace and braided lines at the same time. Definetly works better however the test will be the next time I am on the track. Slotting for the road may not be real necessary however the slots allow the gases to escape better and keep the pads clean. The biggest improvement is oil and pads. I guess your pads wear more however I dont check these things just like I dont check fuel economy. Performance comes at a price.

gtrGhosTDoGG11 Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 Heya Nightcrawler, a little of topic, but, Iam thinking of getting one of those Hybrid EBC's, and wondering how you adjusted the boost. Can you do it from the controller and in what increments. Thanks Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/80741-disc-slotting-place/#findComment-1471556 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightcrawler Posted July 18, 2005 Author Share Posted July 18, 2005 yep you can do it from the little controller - it has a button to select high or low, and each of those settings has a little knob to set the boost. There are no increments on the actual dial, but you just turn it little by little to up the boost until you are happy. If you want to have a look at mine, PM and we can hook up for a look.

9krpm Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 I had my fronts done at Race Oil Distribution - 14 Watervale Drive Greenfields. that's PPG and K&A address K&A just did mine stock rotors. Their CNC miller did a beautiful job. You can order any slotting pattern you like. The more pattern the more noise and $$$. I had 6 slots. I've not had them fully tested yet. I had some hot spots on the front rotor from some roads up the hill. After slotting and use on the road, these hot spots magically disappeared. There is no noise either.

9krpm Posted July 19, 2005 Share Posted July 19, 2005 Don't know mate, I am still waiting for a big bill Just tell them I sent you. You might be lucky and get some discount K&A uses Computer Assisted Machine and they will almost never stuff up your disc. Slotting looks good and it's functional as well.
