CCM Disk Refurbishment

Thought I'd share.
Found this link in one of the Ferrari chat threads, huge savings on OEM should the time come...

Had my Sicoms fitted by Autofficina with no problems.

Can highly recommend this and the refurbished disc appears to be even better than the factory item. Sicom have vast experience in racing. Speak to Wolfgang as a contact at Sicom.

Can you tell me more about this please - or point me to someone who can?

Thanks

Good to hear - dare I ask what the final cost was all in (assuming it was four corners refurbished)?

The link has details and the posts have a contact name and someone who can fit them in the uk - what more do you need ?

Have seen this, very interesting!
About £650 per 400mm disk at current exchange rates!
Reading up on this the finish is supposedly a big improvement of the Ferrai CCM material from a wear perspective.

Sicom have previously manufactured the carbon composite bits for all BMW's M3 csl amongst other stuff and for various Ferrari FXX programs etc

[cgt2]

Yes, the finish appears much better than the standard Ferrari disc surface and Autofficina commented on this too.

Thank you.

Ferrari cost I am told supply and fit £11,000
Ridiculous but if you supply OEM what about warranty and service package

That's for the entire CCM brake system (disks, 6 pot calipers, pads, pipe work, parking calipers and labour).

Simply fitting new OEM disks would be much cheaper. About £4000.

Not a 599 it isn't, each Disc is £2,250 plus VAT, Pads are circa £1,200 plus VAT for the 2 sets and £700 + VAT labour, cheapest quote across 4 dealers I had was around £13,500

Maybe. I was quoting F430 pricing as I had the entire CCM brake system installed last year for £10,500.

Hi guys,

I am doing market research for SICOM to potentially bring this service into the UK. In essence, if you have carbon ceramic brake discs that are now fairly old, rope and don't work as good as they once did and DON'T want to spend tens of thousands replacing them, there is an option to refurbish them to as good as new, if not better.

SICOM in Germany offer this service. The old discs are machined, levelled and a surface polymer layer made from carbon silicon replaces the worn away surface. The results are fantastic and braking just as impressive. All for 25% of the OEM price. A 12 month warranty is also given.

Here is a Ferrari F430 that recently had them done

After (other side)



There is also a running discussion on the Porsche forum about these discs and the refurbishment process.

PS Here is a Porsche carbon ceramic disc 'before and after' shot.

if you had the CCM disc's only, can you fit them to a standard F430?
I assume not without the callipers and pads, what price are these?
Any second hand ones going?
