deltamal Posted July 20, 2022 Report Posted July 20, 2022 I'm looking for a pair of 257mm diameter vented brake brake discs to fit my Mk3 Cortina fitted with Princess 4 pot spaced calipers, I got the last pair from Rally Design but they wont have stock for at least 8 weeks, I can get the old ones skimmed as they are a bit warped but it's not ideal, any suggestions please?

Miniliteman Posted July 21, 2022 Report Posted July 21, 2022 The 257 mm ones are used to make use of the all the pad area. You could use 247 mm discs which leaves a bit of pad area unused. Then fit the new 257 discs in a couple of weeks.
Brenda1978 Posted July 21, 2022 Report Posted July 21, 2022 I got a new pair of 2.8i capri vented discs 2
Moderator Rally Pack 2000 Posted July 22, 2022 Moderator Report Posted July 22, 2022 The 257mm are the ideal with Princess callipers. I remember when I got mine Rally Design were the only place that had them. May have to wait it out unfortunately.
BIG G Posted July 22, 2022 Report Posted July 22, 2022 Im sure the the 257 discs are from a BMW and redrilled
Miniliteman Posted July 22, 2022 Report Posted July 22, 2022 Many years ago a clubmember had these calipers and he used discs from Fiat.
deltamal Posted July 31, 2022 Author Report Posted July 31, 2022 Problem sorted, Ive had the discs skimmed which took the warp out, but for the future I have a new pair on back order from Rally Design which I now remember is where I got the current ones from, saves buying a complete new set up with calipers! besides I like the Princess ones! 1
