Mk1b front discs?

Post by Finn »

I need a set of non-drilled and non-grooved plain stock front discs of good quality for my -89.

Apart from EBC discs I'm having difficulties to find other plain discs - I reckon I'm just getting blind with this and going in circles so I would appreciate some suggestions, please. :salut:

The rear discs had three week delivery time, fronts were on the shelf but turned out to be 235x18 mm so I returned them. :(

These are so old cars that this kind of parts are not in stock so might just as well order them my self. Original Toyota discs are about 90,- Euros each locally. Not that steep considering everything and could be the ones I get.

Didn't someone find that Corsa discs fitted as a bolt on alternative?

The bore is wrong so they won't locate properly without custom machining and/or rings etc.

To keep things simple I bought today EBC std front discs and EBC Greenstuff pads front and rear from Larkspeed. I already have a set of new rear discs acquired locally.
