|  Tarox g88 discs? Anyone running these? Im thinking about a set for my pd100 and am after some feed back. Also pads, Awesome reccomended either Tarox or Mintex Extreme pads, does anyone have experience with any of these? I was going to run the 312 set up but with the mega costs of upgrading the hubs etc I dont think its worthwhile for my intended use! (........for sale section.....)  Cheers, Cav. |

I have the G88's on my Fabia, and my Octavia. Buy them. If you drive hard everywhere - use Tarox Rallye Pads. If you drive fairly normally with the odd blast, go for the Strada's, as they work better than the Rallye ones at a lower temp. While you are at it, get some Halfords 5.1 brake fluid. If you get the new brakes, you may know this, but make sure you bed them in nicely for 500 miles, and the discs will take whatever abuse you can throw at them. Not used mintex extremes, as i have never felt the need to stray from the tarox.

| Re: Tarox g88 discs? I agree, G88's and the right fluid/pad setup is great for some negative G's

| Re: Tarox g88 discs? EBC are awful, reds and greens, old and new compounds. They are nothin but a waste of money. The best pads I have had on my 312's were the bog standard £28 a set Apec ones which have now done 12k and are still sharp and fade free. I have however just bought a set of Mintex Xtremes and will be fitting these and changing the fluid this weekend ready for a certain track day not too far away |
