On a side note, I fitted new front rotors and pads to my Testarossa a couple of years ago and a few blokes here talked me in to having them cryogenically treated.
Frozen to -270 deg C in liquid nitrogen and then slowly bought back to ambient. Aparently it aligns the molecular structure of the steel and dramatically lessons fatige and structural failure of steel components.
My brakes are great, no disc scoring at all and hardly any dust.
At the time the guy had hundreds of mower blades from the large municipal lawn mowers. Apparently after treating they keep an edge for 8 - 10 times longer than untreated.
He was doing gearbox splines, axles, aircraft components, all sorts of things.

Today, my local Ferrari mechanic suggested that I do the Pantera axles after the chrome and grind treatment.
Do any of you Americans use this type of treatment or have any experience with it?
