barry.h Posted January 13, 2003 Share Posted January 13, 2003 Fitting drilled discs for the first time I see that they are handed. Could someone please tell me should the holes at the outside edge lead or should the holes nearest the centre lead? Thanks, Barry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHRIS CLARK Posted January 13, 2003 Share Posted January 13, 2003 Barry. I've seen 'em fitted both ways to various cars so fitted mine in trail ie 'scimitar' effect having the outer tip facing towards the rear of the car. That could also be interpreted as inner (lower) hole leading. Hope that makes sense. Can send you a pic if required!!! Clamshell Club Founder Member.

barry.h Posted January 13, 2003 Author Share Posted January 13, 2003 Thanks Chris, that's completely clear. Seems as though it doesn't matter if you have seen it both ways. Rather like the scimitar analogy so I'll go that way. Cheers, Barry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delberts Wallet Posted January 14, 2003 Share Posted January 14, 2003 Stu, I have some drilled and grooved disks which I bought from EBC. I'm running standard calipers with Mintex 1144's. Look the bits and the work great. Gareth Blue and Carbon Supersport T561 LKJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHRIS CLARK Posted January 14, 2003 Share Posted January 14, 2003 Stuart F. I have brand new std. discs drilled to a pattern supplied by a very nice man!!!! All counterbored etc. Seems to work well. I can even hear the 'whistle' of the discs as the slow the car (if the clutch is dipped of course). Use EBC green pads with them as this is a road set-up; not for track. Send me a mail with your email address and I'll send info. & pic. Clamshell Club Founder Member. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delberts Wallet Posted January 14, 2003 Share Posted January 14, 2003 Stu. I got them direct from EBC. I phoned them, told them what I wanted and they delivered them. I'll dig the number out for you.
