Which cars take the GiroDisc Front Iron Conversion for Audi and Lamborghini?

GiroDisc lists the Front Iron Conversion for Audi and Lamborghini models fitted with 380mm carbon ceramic front rotors, including the Audi R8 and Lamborghini Gallardo. Because the application covers several models, send us your car details and we will confirm the match before shipping.

Do the factory calipers work with the iron conversion?

Yes. GiroDisc designed the assemblies as direct replacements for the 380mm carbon ceramic front rotors, so the factory calipers are reused. No modifications are needed beyond the parts swap itself, and we confirm the complete parts list with every order.

Why convert a carbon ceramic car to iron for track days?

Iron rings on reusable GiroDisc hats can be renewed a pair at a time for a fraction of the cost of new carbon ceramic discs. That lets an owner use the car hard on track and keep the original carbon ceramic rotors for road use or resale.

What is the minimum thickness of the conversion rings?

GiroDisc recommends replacing the rings at 34mm. They should also be replaced if a crack leads to the edge of the ring. Replacement rings are part number D1-336, sold as a pair with hardware, and they bolt to the existing hats.

How many vanes does the Audi and Lamborghini front ring have?

Seventy two curved vanes. They act as a centrifugal pump, pulling air in through the hub and pushing it out through the ring to cool the rotor under hard use. Because the vanes are directional, each assembly is made for one side of the car.

Description

GiroDisc Front Iron Conversion for Audi and Lamborghini 380mm Carbon Ceramic Brakes

GiroDisc’s Front Iron Conversion for Audi and Lamborghini models replaces 380mm carbon-ceramic front rotors with two-piece iron assemblies that use the factory calipers. GiroDisc lists it for various Audi and Lamborghini applications, with the R8 and Gallardo among them. The rings carry 72 curved vanes and are machined from GiroDisc’s high-carbon iron casting, mounted on black-anodized 6061-T6 aluminum hats made in Bellingham, Washington. It suits the owner who wants to spare costly carbon-ceramic discs from track wear and run renewable iron instead.

Fitment and Installation

The conversion bolts on with no modifications beyond the parts swap, and the factory calipers are reused. Confirm the complete conversion parts list with us before ordering. Spring clips and Belleville washers on the drive pins give race-ready float without noise from loose hardware, and the cap screws are never tightened beyond 60 in-lb (7 Nm).

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
