Type R rear disk dimensions wanted...
I have a MY00 Type R V-LTD and need to know the dimensions of the rear disks, no funny cracks please like 'take the wheel off and measure it' I would if I had time
I know that the drum size for the handbrake measures 190mm (20mm more than a standard rear disk) but is the disks diameter 297mm??? and what thickness???
I've been told to try a P1 rear disk, which we did but again it wouldn't fit, summat to do with P1's having a sliding rear caliper and mine having twin pot calipers.
Also, whilst I'm on, does anyone have a drilled and grooved rear disk setup, preferably 2 piece with separate bell?

I have the same problem, when I was looking for rear disks for mine, i'm pretty sure the size you stated is correct. They are rare are not cheap disks to buy, I was quoted £400 for disks and pads off the garage where I get my car serviced. I spoke to Godspeed racing and they could do it at less than half price and for a little extra, would drill them.

Thanks...but...
Guys thanks for the posts.
Simb I already have the 335mm Godpseed upgrade and I love it...

...but Ian doesn't have or can't get any disks to fit the rear (on my MY00 V-LTD anyway).
So unless I hear any different from Mr.G, I'm looking elsewhere
PS. Simb, just out of interest, when did you speak to Godpseed about rear disks?

It was a few months back now, will be speaking to him soon so will re-confirm then and let you know.

It is stupid money mate, there must be somewhere else to source them from.
