Default Tarox b32-6 pads

For users of this caliper that may be having problems with getting pads, and want EBC, the yellowstuff are part number DP4413R, they are actually
MERCEDES G SERIES 4X4, L200/L300 SERIES
I know chip was having trouble tracking the fitment down so thought this might help others, got the details from my pads just arrived today.

No probs, spoke to "bart" today at EBC, and the reason they have the mercedes fitment listed is due to type approval in the EU, to use the yellows in the tarox, you just need to file/grind flat a bobble type protrusion on 2 corners of each pad, the shape is perfect, the bobble bit is used by mercedes, but it is 100% the exact same material as any other yellowstuff.
The break in coating ebc now use is awsome, really does work fantastic, work from very first press perfectly for normal braking, and cleans discs perfectly for the pads.

Exactly what I have in the tarox 6 pots for my nova, thanks to your original tipoff on them

as you say, the modification required really is fuck all, 2 minutes with a file and job done.

I have Tarox 6 pots and use DS2500's for the AP 6 pots, you just have to grind the end slightly.
