Hi All,
Having recently purchased a 2015 F-Type R, I have it booked in with the local independent for full fluids change and service. Having looked at my brake discs ahead of this, they aren't looking too bad but are definitely down a good few mm so this got me shopping around for replacements. Stock discs look a little underwhelming and having read the weight saving of 2 part disc to stock, I started shopping around to see what was available. I ended up speaking to MTec after using their disc previously. They already provide F-Type steel disc's but I noticed they also did custom 2 part disc. After enquiring about costs and availability they came back with some very compelling pricing and approximate weight savings.
The Rotor's and Bells are coming in at £500 a pair.
Future replacement rotors only would be around £250 a pair, so comparable to replacement OEM discs but with the weight saving from the bells.
The approximate weight saving was really interesting. For comparison example they currently have Nissan GTR 380mm 2 piece discs at 10kg in weight compared to standard discs which would be upwards of 20kg. So a potentially very tidy weight saving.
Here is the link to the site.

The only issue is they need a minimum initial order of 4 pairs. Although I probably don't need these right now, I would be happy to purchase them now as part of a group buy if we can get another three of us to order these.
