   So anyway i need some new discs. Hi spec are quite pricey as well all know.
   
   A few people have tried other options, have we managed to get another type of disc people think are safe to use.
   
   I know raunchz had to take a bit off a pad to get his gti-6 discs to run with the billet 4s.

   useful to know. Im not a fan of drilled and grooved but for that price you cant really complain.
   
   So you had to do no pad mods/caliper spacing with those?

   Yeh, I ran the maxtorq gti6 discs from kam-racing.
   
   Had to take a fraction off the pad, at a guess 0.5mm but it really wasn't much at all when compared to the pad thickness.
   
   I think Sophia-bush had some 2 piece gti6 discs

   surely new rotors will be cheaper then whole discs?
