Steve, Chris has nudged me! The question of which are the best discs depends what you are going to use the car for. All of our discs are 3 times tougher than anything else out there anyway, but if you intend to do a lot of track days I would suggest you go for the grooved only, as they are inherently stronger than the drilled discs. The purpose of the drilling is to assist in cooling, but as NITRAC discs run cooler anyway, there is little advantage, and all our race customers go for the grooved variety. If you only do the occasional track day, then really it is a matter of personal preference, as it would be extremely difficult to detect any difference in performance outside a race track! As to the number of grooves, generally speaking endurance racers go for 8 grooves, and the short track racers go for 16, so I think you can draw your own conclusions from that!! Sorry it is so long but I hope that helps

Mackers,
Bad news on the performance clutch front, according to my sources no-one in the UK does a performance clutch for that model Impreza, although there seem to be plenty available in the States, so I can't help you on that front either. However, as I said, we are interested, in cryo-treating a full clutch and flywheel assembly for road use and getting feedback, so if you do buy the full kit, and are interested in making it 2-3 times as strong and making it last longer, get in touch and we will see what kind of a deal we can cut.

Only need 3 more now for a 15% saving, 4 more for a 20% saving! 
Come on peeps, get your names down here
Unfortunatly, the MLR wont be joining us, as their moderators are even more draconian than scoobynets
and will only allow gb's from authorised advertisers, which is a great pity.
However, if you do frequent that board at all, there's nothing stopping you pointing them in the direction of this thread, and reminding them that Nitrac do discs and pads for their brembo setups too!

Would it be worth maybe extending the offer another month? With Nitracs permission of course.
Maybe we could get some more takers if we do. I'll be getting mine at the end of this month regardless, and a big write up and pictures will follow, so hopefully that will generate some extra sales

Dear all,
Sorry I have not responded to the last couple of posts. For some reason I am not getting e-mail notification. We now have 8 sets of discs requested, and we only have 3 days to go! Any chance of getting any more buyers? I do not want to extend the offer by another month, however, if all the potential buyers of 8 discs confirm their purchases (which means paying for them!) by this Thursday noon, I will go mad and give the 20% discount, and the discs would be despatched by the 5th September for delivery on the 6th. Does that sound acceptable to everyone?

that sounds good to me 
... we havent heard much from the other people in the GB but I assume they are all keeping an eye on this? Could everyone confirm if they will be able to pay for their disks by thursday?
Could Nothing B confirm what model impreza the rear disks are for and what style he wants?
and finally if cryojock or cw42 could calculate everyones totals that would be good.
Thanks again,
Gaz

OK, I've just spoken to Alan at Nitrac on 01625 267074 to arrange payment, once he's had sufficient calls then it can all go ahead at the new 20% discount level - I said I'd post here to prompt everyone to ring in.
Cheers,
Rich.

I spoke to Alan earlier today aswell and have recieved an invoice for the disks and a google checkout payment option, his computer is on the blink and he would like you to ring him to confirm what disks you want and to provide an e-mail address so he can send the invoice and google checkout bill.
I have also PM'd alot of the people who put their names down to get them to see the new discount if they havent already.
Thanks
Gaz
