Re-chromed rotor housings

Ian · 01-26-2011, 04:27 PM

I have housings that have apex seal damage. Almost all of them have corner triangle chrome flake? I thought the purpose of rechroming was to get this fixed? So the quality of this rechroming only reflects the quality of the housings to begin with? Is there going to be pictures of acceptable housings vs unacceptable?

For me I would want to try my worst set

But I have two new engines sitting in my cars now so hopefully no need for new housings right this year

Mind you the track is pretty rough.....

It reflects the quality of the insert. If you've got housings with major gouges or pitting where chrome is missing then you will want to wait for when we offer the repair service as well.

Any progress on this process?

As a matter of fact yes there has been. We just received yesterday the final pc we've been waiting for. Now it's a matter of some serious machine work and off we go.

The first pair of housings we will do are a pair of S6 housings (pics on pg 2)that came from my engine when I bought the car. They are in decent shape for re-chrome with scratches in the centre around the plugs, chatter and some wedge wear.

Of course I will post as soon as I have them done.
