Just thought id post some pics, this was earlier this evening, the gearbox is out and is going to David & Simon @ API.

 

glad you took my advice, David @ Api is the main man

 

ill second that! cant praise the guys there enough

whats up with it, or you changing set up?

 

Yup, you wont go far wrong with DOB@APi.

You couriering the 'box?

 

Yep its getting couriered down. Potential bearing failure. So is going for a full check and bearing rebuild.

 

hope the box rebuild goes ok.

on a side note, are the frint brake discs on the correct way ?? grooves are facing opposite way to most ive seen.

 

get yourself a front splitter while its on the ramp

The garage said and I saw that Godspeed had marked them for which side they go on. So we have gone off there marking Is it wrong??? The garage said normally the other way round but Godspeed said this way

 

If the cooling "vanes" cast into the middle of the disk were curved like the grooves then yes.





I suspect that they are straight, so the disk is bi-directional (can be used in either direction).

Ian's marked up the disk for best pad "cleaning" by the grooves.

 

My Godspeed discs were marked the opposite as below ??

 

As stated it all depends upon the shape of the vanes cast into the centre of the disk..........

 

Centre vane direction is related to the airflow through the disc and a seperate feature to the groove direction which is for pad cleaning/de-gassing.

My disc's and jon1984 disc's are/were marked opposite.

Done a quick search and found this https://www.scoobynet.com/wheels-tyr...c-grooves.html , Godspeed's response matches how my disc's were marked.

 

My point is the grooves cut into the disk can be fitted either way as long as the vanes cast into the disk are correct.

Seems Ian may have changed his mind

 

Il check next time at the garage but from my picture zoomed in the vains are straight not curved so they look uni directional

Any views?????

 

If so (straight), they are fine the way they are

For what it's worth, Brembo cut their grooves as per your setup (although straight not curved)

 

Just checked with garage they are straight. Cheers don for all the info will keep this in mind for future brakes

 

Can confirm my non ventilated Godspeed disks were also marked as per that drawing.
