    Anyone know if they are still in existence? Wanted to see if they could help with supply of new 280mm discs. From details found on Google, tried phoning and think it is now a private number, and sent an email two days ago and no reply or bounce back.

    I can't remember the sizes off the top of my head, but is this the "big brake conversion" size?

    If so, a company called PAW used to provide the discs too. They are machined down VW Corrado G60 discs with new holes for the studs.

    Not sure if this is the company in question, but worth an enquire:

    Good luck,

      Thats the one Ian. Ive already got the caliper brackets, and was looking to get the discs separately. In posts relating to the G60 discs, JRT was mentioned as a possible source of discs and they would redrill the stud holes ready. If they have ceased trading - which now looks likely - I'll get the engineering company that did all my block work to do the job.

        JRT is/was a one-man-band and when I bought some parts from him at least 10 years ago it was from a private house.

          Pretty sure I read the other day that JRT or at least their warehouse has been bought by Skinners of Rye.

            Thanks for the update guys. Pity that JRT appears to be no more. Means I'll have to use the DIM (Do It Myself) route! Discs should be arriving Monday, so will be taking them to the engineering company on Tuesday all being well!
