does anyone know where (if anywhere) you can get vented discs with the swept webs/fins down the middle. metro turbos had these swept type discs from the factory which are handed so they point the same way on both sides of the car. i think lesser models had an identical disc either side.

everywhere i have looked that sells vented discs have straight webbs between the outer friction surfaces.

hope you understand what i mean?

this link best shows you what i mean.....

They dropped the swept fins very early on to rationalise production, and only make one part instead of two, because it made negligible difference to the brake cooling, therefore straight fin discs are perfectly ok. The swept fins have not been available new for many years.
