tarox 6 pot caliper replacements (SP0239)

hey guys got a set of these calipers and discs at a good price, spent all night trying to find a set of replacement pads and all i can seem to get is a direct replacement of yellow stuff pads. whats everyones opinion on the yellow stuff pad? and does anyone know how i can get a different set of replacement pads for these?? thanks Chris

Ive had yellow stuff on mine for years - standard calipers - uprated discs.
In general I'd say the pads are good.
Dont take long to get upto temp and bite good - dont wear down to quick either.
I've never had complete faith in the standard calipers - would much prefer bigger set up - but for how i drive the car most of the time they do ok !

yep ive not got a prob with the yellows either, i think its just a case of people slate them as they are cheap to buy then all the other sheep follow suit.

carbotech pads are meant to be fantastic.....ive only ever heard good reviews on these but they are a bit costly at around £180 a set but will last you for ages.....they will also make the pads to your backing plate if you send that off as a pattern.
il deffo be buying these next

Ive got red stuff with 4 pot willwoods, The red stuff pads are crap feel no better than standard brakes, i have to start braiking a mile up the road when i come to a corner or set of lights. lol. Think im going to try yellow stuff as ive always heard they are good!

Dont say that gaz i have red stuff on mine havnt had the chance to test them yet lol

looking forward to getting mine fitted should be a huge improvement over standard
You any details on that company johnny?
problem is i'm not sure which caliper i have now as it looks like an older version of the b32-6 or the b320-6 looking at the pad type might be the later.

There ok when there hot, but you dont realy get the chance to get them hot on the road, if you was on track all the time & you got them warm on a practice lap & was hard braking they would soon get warm, Pretty dangerous on the road if you start dring fast & there not warm

Not the site i was looking for but gives the types of disk and pads Will pop the other one up later on tonight

most of the places dont list the pads or list them under pulsar to fit standard calipers probably as there aint the demand to warrent listing them seperate. but if they list the kit etc they will or should be able to get pads as stated revolution can
