Here's an update on my discs...

I have just checked them and they are coming up as 4.32 - 4.35mm thickness..

Who would recommend I should change them?

Is the minimum thickness really 4.5mm?

Can you still stop?  :whistling:
Answer, NO, perhaps consider changing them.  :mfr_lol:
Answer YES, stop meddling.  :popcorn:

Yes I can still stop but it states on the service manual that the service limit is 4.5mm..

I don't know what to do  :popcorn:

That's Mr K hoping you will buy some new ones, from my point of view if you brake in a straight line with no wobble then there not warped and carry on, ok if your a little nervous then perhaps when there at 4mm you might change them.

Debs, I suppose if you have a spare £500 to £600 knocking around you could buy some new ones or you can leave the money with me to look after it till you need it.  :popcorn:


I thought you were considering trading up for a newer GTR, is that not the case? If so, definitely don't bother, save your brass lass as we say up North. 

O.C.
