Noticed these on spoox
Did a search but couldn't find much info on them.
Are they good and do they fit behind the cyclones?
Thanks Happy

    Not for that much money and I very much doubt they would fit behind cyclones without spacers. Ask them - they'll know if they do Smile

    i run the 310mm tarox 6 pots i can only just fit a 15" TD pro 2 on them so doubt a clone would go over the 295s

    Ive got the same kit as Si and ive tried putting Cyclones on - its a big NO NO ! only catches a little but you cant get the wheel onto the face.

    Have to get the 295mm rotors and brakets myself as i want Cyclones back on.

    So they should fit with spacers?

    Whats it like having 6 pots on the front with standard callipers on the back?

    They would be need spacers i think IIRC of about 5-8mm, ive got standard calipers on the back and to be honest they dont do much compared to the fronts.

    Have you got an LS7 under the hood or something?LOL

    Your profile says they are 318, not 380 - was wondering how you get 380s under 17".Hmm

    On standard discs?

    So you mean just Tarox 6-pots designed for a 380mm disc?
    In which case I'd imagine the pistons aren't on the right centreline and the caliper body will flex sideways slightly causing odd wear?

    If they were selling the kit with 295mm dics would the adapters and calipers not be sized to suit??

    So you've not actually rung them up and asked yet then.

    yea i emailed them a few days ago.
    They said:
    Good Morning scott and thanks for your email. We have fitted the 6 pots
    behind 15" compomotives before, but we have never tried behind a cyclone in
    all honesty.

    I don't have a 6 pot kit in stock at the moment or i would test fit it for
    you to a GTI-6 or rallye.

    Sadly i cannot give you a definite answer to this at this time, but rest
    assured i will look into it immediately and see if i can answer your
    question accurately.

    I also spoke to tarox this morning and as expected they did not know either
    !

    I will look into it straight away and get back to you shortly.

    Thanks once again for your enquiry

    Probably, but I'm refering to Sentrix's setup.

    Ahh sorry
    I think he means he has the 380mm 6 pots on the front and standard set up on the back?
