Can't get them for the S, Adrian 
At least not for the OEM caliper.

You can indeed get 2pc front and rear from Compbrake.
I got Compbrake them to make them with help from two others who kindly supplied the template old disks.
But was met with the usual apathy once it came to actually paying the hard CASH for them in a GB.

When are you at Coombe, and can I help your fuel bill?
I'm thinking it would be educational to fit the datalogger
What are those beasts hiding behind the Spoon calipers??
Steve, 22nd June hopefully. Daytime though...
Lucky, ta, just off to look.
What's the general view on cooling mods on the S? THere's obviously oil coolers and better radiators, but what is the point where one is needed?

I've never tried R888 so might give them a go. Had a couple of sets of A048 on the Exige and they were great, and a lot of people rate them as better than the R888 - but who knows!
I'm a little worried about driving in the wet with them though...

A048R's are fine in the wet. Standing water isn't fun, but they're not really a problem. I did something like 2000 road miles on mine.
I did a lot of wet miles in the Exige too, a lot at full throttle on the motorway in lashing rain
No probs at all.
But the Doris sometimes drives it (albeit very slowly)

I don't think cooling is an issue unless your boosted?

Only one I would have is Rotrex AJ, but it's currently a really well balanced car with the mods it has. It might be an option in future, but i'm loving it as it is for now. THe ECU has made such a huge difference to it.
