WTB: svx front brake discs

Hi,

Looking for front brake discs at a really cheap price to do some tests. No need to be in perfect shape since I will have to machine the disc to make it thinner.

I'm in Montréal, Canada so please no offer from somebody in Texas since shipping will be crazy expensive.

thanks

Pascal

Why would you want them thinner?

When mine warp I will let you know!

Has anyone found front rotors that wear below minimum specified thickness before they warp? Or is it the pads that are the key?

Re: WTB: svx front brake discs

I'll have some off my parts car in a few days... light rust build up on the rotors but otherwise should be good for what you need... Usually i just send them to the scrapyard... pay for shipping and they're yours... might fit into flat rate box, i'll get back to you...

International shipping will be more than buying some new ones off of E-Bay.

Re: WTB: svx front brake discs

I went to FedEx.com and they need a postal code before they can give a quote
I am guessing 40#s, and a 13X 13X 6" package.

Re: WTB: svx front brake discs

thanks svxfiles for the help!

I will check with 1986nate and the ebay link you gave me. Usually when I get parts shipped from the US, I go pick them up in NY state which is 40minutes from my house.

thanks

Pascal
