Hi .
New to group hope someone can help me with a problem I have come up against
with my 22yr old Mazda 929 Station wagon, it is ready to get MOT but first I
must get the thin front disks sorted. New replacements are just not
available so I will have to get the disks built up and machined, If anyone
out there knows a company in Kent that can do this work please let me know .

. . Col, I've had a bit of experience metal spraying myself, and I wouldn't
consider doing it on brake disks. Get similar ones machined to fit and live
longer !!!!

There surely must be an easier way? Machine a different one to fit? If it
were some exotic with massive discs there might be a problem...
