Title: black diamond disks
Post by: dino on 02 April 2004, 11:18

I want to put black diamond disk on my 83 GTI , can anybody recommend the best place to get them (ie cheapest)

also does the combi disk have much more benefit over a grooved disk ?

after searching the net and making lots of phone calls, bought a set of combi black diamond disks from Venom motorsport (tel:01254814444) they were over ?30.00 cheaper than anybody else.

I have black diamond discs and predator pads on mine, and remember hearing they need to be changed together, has anyone else heard this? seems an expensive way of mantaining the brakes to me.

i have put the black diamond disks on and used ebc greenstuff pads. As long as you don't let the pads run right down to the metal there is no reason to change the disks. Just make sure you always use a good pad. The greenstuff pads don't give of much brake dust and last much longer than most pads, with a top notch performance, you can't really beat them.
