Wanted brake rotors

[Austin Healer]

Seems that the rotors for late Alpine and Tiger are now NLA... The EBC part number is D214...anyone out there have a set of NEW rotors?

What sources have you checked?

Sunbeam Specialties HAD a good pipeline not that long ago...

...hard to believe SS can't supply them.

Rick was the first person contacted... Tried everywhere in the UK, and the USA... EBC either stopped making them, or has run out. I did finally find a set in the UK... probably one of the last...

I just talked to Rick, SS. His Pipeline has changed hands/disappeared.

But Rick is concerned some old Production of poorly Machined rotors

turns back up.

So beware of NEW rotors that have Thin spots.

The location is, at the back side, max diameter

of the machined surface.

The rotors I found are EBC manufactured, so I'm not concerned.

WOW! $327 + Tax for a pair!

Last time I had some custom rotors made, they were less than that!

...and they were Way bigger than Std Tiger rotors...

Time to do another rotor interchange check for the best More common rotor to use.

I need to dig up the info of the Toyota rotor I used back in the late '90s, as a starting point.

That's where I got them.. and yes, $327 is outrageous..... I know that the Toyota Truck caliper (4 piston) fits a Big Healey!!!
