Good
brakes are important in maintaining a balanced performance package. Improvements
range from the fitting of Kevlar brake pads all round (the best), our
standard size 'x' drill discs with Kevlar pads, through to our GTT 'Big
Brake Conversion'. It should be noted that although expensive 4 pot kits
are available, due to the low weight of the vehicle, these are widely
unnecessary and can cause problems in normal day to day use. Our 'Big
Brake' kit is used by many in circuit racing and reports confirm they
have never faded yet, so offering excellent value, and certainly perfect
for fast road too! All GT Tuning brake discs are of modified Group 'N'
quality fine grade pearlitic cast steel. In order to ensure that our discs
give unparalleled performance, we have improved upon two of the most common
failings; these being imbalance and run-out. Balance: Surprisingly, many performance discs are not balanced
at all. This saves on production costs, but can cause wheel wobble and
vibration at speed (similar to an unbalanced wheel). Each GT Tuning disc
is individually dynamically balanced to fine tolerances. Run-out: Although all disc manufacturers recognise run-out as being
important, the extent to which it is controlled varies considerably. In
essence, run-out will cause serious vibration whilst braking with inefficient
and unequal stopping power. GT Tuning brake discs have very fine run-out
tolerances (+ or 0.0005 inch). The forty crossdrilled holes are accurately
positioned using C.N.C. machines to give maximum cooling and chamferred
by the correct amount to give efficient brake pad deglazing. Each pair
is 'handed' (left and right directional) to give identical braking characteristics
at each wheel. GT Tuning discs have 40 holes per disc, this means there
is a hole between every pair of webs. Any less than this and quite simply
only part of the disc is cooling properly a perfect recipe for warped
discs!

extenders (BS43A High carbon steel), all bolts and full instructions.
Being 50mm bigger than standard discs they give unparalleled stopping
power and eliminate fade. They also look superb and purposeful.
This package can only be used with 15" and above alloy wheels
due to calliper to wheel clearance. £215 + VAT

Rear Brake Package (B121)
Includes: 1 pair rear crossdrilled discs,
1 set kevlar brake pads,
1 pair rear wheel bearings (prefitted to disc to save you garage labour
costs). £199 + VAT Note: Due to unavoidable damage to rear wheel bearings when
being pressed out from rear discs (and possible warpage of discs when
replacing rear wheel bearings), we recommend that bearings and discs
are always replaced together. Hence the popularity of this package.
