    spare front discs & pads.

    If anyone feels they may need discs and or pads for tomorrow, shout up, I have a spare set.
    If not, I'll not bother bringing them.

    Just out of interest, what is the cost in UK for discs & pads? I just had to replace front discs and pads. Front discs (not genuine Mitsubishi, which were NZD 217 each +tax) were NZD160+tax and pads were NZD 100 including tax. Discs were from Australia and slightly different construction from genuine ones. Mitsubishi ones have the inboard side as one piece and the outboard cantilevered on the cooling webs. The aftermarket ones were the other way round. Same dimensions etc, and they seem to work fine. Probably cheaper to make them that way as there's no need to drill through the hub centre to allow air to get to the disc groove. Air is free to enter the back of the disc from the inside of the hub.
