Im after some new 323mm discs. Does anyone have any experience with the CRN discs that are on ebay now and again or should I avoid these?

Im after grooved only discs so any ideas/recommendations are welcome:thumbup:

stay clear of ebay for brake imo !!!!

id be shopping at either a skoda dealer or a local garage that has a proven track record of dealing with and fitting after market brakes.

HTH

I believe Badger5 over on SCN was doing these discs at a good price. I believe they were drilled or grooved, I can't remember which. I assume this is for the Cupra R brembos? I'll need some soon as well I reckon.

try these mate

give ian a call,he'll put you on the right track

The brembo drilled are good IMO, its difficult to get a decent disk in 323 at a decent price though.

Much like most things in life, you get what you pay for.

If you intend to keep the car for a while maybe worth looking at bells and rotors and you can always go bigger too :P:D

Yeah, these are for the Cupra R Brembos.

As for going bigger ive been looking at the 330mm set up from Badger5 on SCN but im not sure if they will fit under 17" wheels or if I can face spending over 600 quid on front discs and pads.

I'll give Godspeed a bell in the morning and see what he suggests.

I was quoted £200 roughly, all in, for EBC Ultimax discs which guys over on SCN perform at least as well as the stock brembo 323mm disc, but at a lot less cost.

EBC Ultimax and DS2500 pads are looking like a favorite option so far.

It's definitely the disc I will be going for. Still some wear to go though on EddyH's old brakes.

I've had the crn discs on 2 different cars now and had no issues with them atall, been good on track days too. Seem to be excellent value

Ninja_alex, did you bother getting the discs zinc coated from CRN ?

No, not really worth it in my opinion

Alex

If you directly ring them up, and ask them the zinc coat them at no extra cost, they normally do

CRN grooved discs I believe are basically standard discs for the model/type but they have a grooving (that sounds cool!) machine.

I currently run the 2500 pads and CRN 20 grooved discs with no complains on 312mm.
