Girodisc is a Braking Technology Company dedicated to developing the best quality high performance braking components and solutions. The company has been in business since 2003 and is guided under the direction of company Principal Martin Meade, who spent five years as an Engineer with Porsche Engineering Services, where he played a role in developing current Porsche technology.
PRODUCT INFORMATION
The Girodisc system is a direct replacement for the OE disc. No modifications are necessary. The disc will bolt directly to the car and work with OE calipers perfectly. By upgrading your brakes with lightweight high performance replacements as opposed to a big brake kit, your factory bias is maintained as well as your ABS efficiency.
The central hat section of the Girodisc rotor is made from strictly U.S. sourced 6061-T6 aircraft specification aluminum. The disc is made from Girodisc's own proprietary cast iron, poured in the USA and machined from start to finish in house at Girodisc. The rotor utilizes a curved vane design, developed in racing to act as a centrifugal pump to force cooling air through the disc.
The rotor and hat have a floating mount system, which utilizes 10 high strength alloy steel drive pins, manufactured by Girodisc in the USA to their own specifications and cadmium plated for a long lasting corrosion resistance. These pins take the load from braking actions while maintaining the axial and radial float between the hat and disc. The pins are secured by class 12.9 cap screws with hardened washers. In order to keep the rotors from making noise when cold, the pins are mounted with anti-noise spring washers on the rotor side which allow the rotor to grow with heat expansion but eliminate the rattle and noise associated with floating rotors. This float also allows the rotor to self center between the pads.
Once the Girodisc system is in place, simply replace the cast iron rotor when needed.
Sold/priced per pair.
Fitment Information
This application is only for F87 M2 & M2 Competition Coupe, F80 M3 Sedan, F82 M4 Coupe and F83 M4 Convertible models, including Competition, CS and GTS, equipped with optionalS2NK M Carbon Ceramic brake package (gold calipers)orS2NH M-Sport brake package (red or silver calipers).
The Girodisc iron rotors replace the factory carbon ceramic rotors with no modifications necessary. We strongly recommend changing pad material to one suitable for iron rotors.
The primary purpose of the Girodisc system is to reduce unsprung and overall vehicle weight. The secondary purpose is to increase the ventilation and cooling capacity of the brake disc while retaining it's original dimensions. This is accomplished by using two-piece disc construction. The central “hat” section of the disc is made from 6061-T6 aircraft specification aluminum.
The disc is made from cast iron, to the same specification and material as used by professional racing organizations. It is a curved vane design, developed in racing to act as a centrifugal pump to force cooling air through the disc. The rotor and hat have a floating mount system, which utilizes high strength alloy steel drive pins, manufactured by Girodisc to our own specifications and cadmium plated for a long lasting corrosion resistance. These pins take the load from braking actions while maintaining the axial and radial float between the hat and disc. The pins are secured by grade 12 cap screws with hardened washers. In order to keep the rotors from making noise when cold, the pins are mounted with anti-noise spring clips on the rotor side which allow the rotor to grow with heat expansion but eliminate the rattle and noise associated with floating rotors. This float also allows the rotor to self center between the pads.
Important Questions Answered
What is required to install the Girodisc system?
The Girodisc system is a direct replacement for the OE disc. No modifications are necessary. The disc will bolt directly to the car and work with OE calipers and pads perfectly. Once the Girodisc system is in place, simply replace the cast iron rotor when needed. Some discs are larger in diameter and come with caliper spacers. If longer bolts are required, they are also supplied.
How does reducing weight of the braking system benefit the vehicle?
The Girodisc will generally weigh between 4 – 8 lbs less than the oe disc it will replace. This is due to the heavy cast iron hat section being replaced with lightweight, high strength aluminum. The mass of any vehicle requires energy to accelerate or decelerate. Reducing the vehicle mass improves acceleration, and requires less energy to be dissipated during deceleration. Rotating mass requires additional energy in order to increase or decrease its speed of rotation. Decreasing the mass of the disc has a great benefit due to reduction in rotational inertia. This will allow more of the braking force to be available to decelerate the vehicle, not the disc.
Additionally, the mass of the brake system is also unsprung mass. Reducing the unsprung mass has the additional benefit of improved suspension performance, resulting in enhanced ride and handling. Rotating masses require additional energy to vary the plane on which they turn. The lighter the disc, the quicker the response of the vehicle steering due to the reduction in gyroscopic effect/rotational inertia of the disc. As an example, compare the weight of the Ferrari 360 OE disc at 18.2 lbs, and the Girodisc at 14 lbs. The Girodisc is 4.2 lbs lighter per disc. Replacing all four discs will save 16.8 lbs of rotating, unsprung mass.
Why slotted discs?
The edges of the slots continuously clean and refresh the pad surface. This will allow the pads to have a maximized friction surface always available. Additionally, they prevent containments from collecting between the pad and disc interface. The disc is lightened, decreasing its rotational inertia. Slots prevent the formation of a water film on the disc in wet weather, maintaining the best brake response.
A note on drilled discs
Girodisc doesnotrecommend drilled discsfor high performance applications. The rapid heating and cooling cycles will cause cracking on the friction surface of a drilled disc. The use of high friction or racing pads will exaggerate this condition. Most pad manufacturers specifically recommend that their race pads not be used on a drilled disc for this reason. Girodisc can drill discs for an additional fee, if the customer is aware of the potential hazards of drilling the discs.
Note as example the cracking in this OE Ferrari 550 drilled disc after one track day. Also note this custom front disc of a Porsche 993 Turbo after hard use (see photos).

Should new discs and pads be bedded in and if so, how?
The answer is yes, for optimum performance, any time different friction materials or discs are introduced, a bedding procedure should be carried out.
Which direction should the discs rotate?
For maximum airflow and superior cooling, the Girodisc system uses curved vanes. For a curved vane internally vented disc, the geometry of the vanes dictates the direction of rotation. A curved vane disc must be installed with the vanes running back from the inside to outside diameters in the direction of rotation. Your discs will come with labels indicating their correct placement on the vehicle. Orienting the disc in this manner creates a centrifugal pump. The rotation of the disc causes air to be pumped from the center of the disc, through the vanes, and out through the outside diameter of the disc. This greatly enhances the disc’s ability to dissipate heat. Discs installed backwards have very limited cooling.

My shepherd loves this thing. He is a true fiend for a frisbee or ball and this is his new favorite toy. He will carry it around just to do so, and that’s a new thing for him. It’s soft which is good for my poor hands, yet it’s durable and stands up to the tests he throws at it. It flies well and hasn’t warped no matter what it’s hit. No tears through any of the chewing yet either. Good size toy that gives hours and hours of fun for the most playful and silly doggos out there!

Beloved dog toy now in glow in the dark canvas.
Style: Flying Glow Squirrel
This is a great frisbie style product with the advantage of glow in the dark visibility. My German Shepherd has been retrieving the original Chuckits for 5 years. They fly through the air and have the advantage of curved design which allows a dog to slide their mouth under it easily when it is on the ground. Awesome dog toy that my dog never tires of. Heavy duty canvas design for durability and washability when it gets muddy.

Great, tough, and will not break your dog’s teeth!
Style: Giggle Fumble
I am the aunt of several different types of dogs and they all love the giggle toys. The problem with most of them is that they are hard to Plastic (I guess so the dog doesn’t bite into the giggle box and disable it). Every pup I know is crazy about the giggle toys, but I’m always afraid they’ll break teeth. This one is very tough material but not hard so that your dog could bite down on it and enjoy the giggle.

Perfect for strong chewers!
Style: EcoFetch
Best balls for dogs who love to tear up toys. My pup tore up regular tennis balls but he can’t tear these up and he loves to just chew them. Will always buy these for our fur baby!

Beagle’s Best Friend
Style: Super Crunch Stick, Style: Super Crunch Stick
This is my dog’s favorite toy! We’ve had it for about 6 months now. She plays with it and chews on it every single day. She takes it everywhere. Despite all her rough housing with it, it is still completely intact, so it is extremely durable! Love this thing! We call it her “crunchy carrot”
