Tarox has released a two piece version of the 300mm disc for the much-loved DC5 Honda Integra Type R. Although built to exacting motorsport standards, the discs are also suitable for fast road use.
Each disc is manufactured and hand-assembled in Tarox’s Italian factory and features some unique design features that set it apart from the competition.
The Integra discs consist of two 300mm x 25mm rotors that are machined from solid billet steel, making for a disc that will withstand much greater heat cycling without distortion. A precision-machined alloy bell completes the picture, and all components are designed to directly replace the O.E disc retaining the existing OEM callipers and integrating perfectly with factory ABS systems.
Three styles are available: the diagonally vented ‘G88’, the JDM inspired ‘Sport Japan’ and the classic, spirally grooved ‘F2000’ (pictured) recommended for track use.
TAROX offer a great choice of brake pads : owners can choose from either the ‘Strada’ street pad, for all-round ‘press-on’ driving, or for those who like to exploit the Integra’s peerless poise on track, the ‘Corsa’ circuit-focussed pad provides more than enough retardation to handle even the hottest of Hondas.
Prices vary due to VAT difference across EU countries and carriage costs.

Tarox has released a brake conversion kit to tame the impressive power and tidy handling of VAGs latest trio of high-performance hot hatches. The new kit fits VW Polo GTI, Seat Ibiza Cupra and Skoda Fabia VRS models produced after 2010 and deliver the typical levels of retardation that can be expected from Tarox combined with brand’s typical good looks.
Each kit is hand-assembled in Tarox’s Italian factory and features some unique design features that set it apart from the competition. Based around the race-proven B30 6 piston billet calipers, the new VAG kit utilises two 323mm heat-treated discs which can be ordered in either F2000 (grooved only, pictured) or Sport Japan (drilled and grooved ) design. The rotor is made from the highest quality cast, making for a disc that will withstand much greater heat cycling without distortion. All components bolt to the existing OEM mounts, integrating perfectly with factory ABS systems, where fitted.
Despite offering a tangible improvement over the factory’s paltry 288mm discs and single pot calipers, the Tarox kit boasts a weight saving of over 1kg per corner, thanks to the use of motorsport materials and manufacturing techniques.
Owners can choose from either the ‘Strada’ street pad, for all-round ‘press-on’ driving, or for those who like to venture out onto the track from time to time, the ‘Corsa’ circuit-focussed pad provides more than enough friction to handle even the most ardent of drivers.

Tarox has released full details of its latest ‘must have’ braking upgrade; its beautifully engineered, hand finished brake lines.
At the top of the braking game since its foundation in 1976, Tarox has invested substantially in the very latest technology to allow it to create a bespoke range of race-quality brake lines for a simply huge range of cars. The range covers hundreds of fitments, including a wide array of classic, retro, tuner, prestige and sports machines. By providing an optimum rate of fluid transfer from pedal to pad, the new Tarox brake hoses improve pedal feel and braking efficiency, enhancing the driver’s ‘feel’ and confidence.
The Tarox range draws heavily from over thirty years of engineering excellence and these new hoses lead the market in terms of their specification. The lines themselves are Teflon-lined braided stainless steel, with custom-machined stainless end fittings.
Each set is entirely hand-finished, and finished in the company’s trademark blue hue. This finish is created by a hard-wearing 95PVC grade outer sleeve to protect against dirt and water ingress. Custom and bespoke builds can easily be accommodated to encompass any possible vehicle fitment, but understandably, these may take a little longer to turn around.
As the perfect complement to a set of Tarox discs and pads, the new brake lines improve braking performance, improve driver confidence and of course, are a track day essential.

Tarox may be the first choice for many motorsport and tuning applications, but not all enthusiasts know that there is also on offers a vast range of ultra-high performance disc and pad upgrades for classic cars. Unsurprisingly, many of these applications are for Italy’s finest sports offerings of the 60s and 70s.
Cars like the Lamborghini Miura and LM002 , Ferrari Dino and 365 GTB/4, Maserati’s Indy and Merak, Alfa’s GTA and Montreal and even Lancia’s Fulvia can all be enhanced with a set of Tarox discs and pads, to endow modern-day stopping power upon these iconic classics.
Although the list of fitments is decidedly retro, the technology behind these brake upgrades is very much bang up to date. Each of these kits offer a direct replacement to the OEM parts – but with significantly greater performance and much less tendency to fade.
Each disc undergoes a structural stress-relieving heat treatment at the end of each machining cycle which increases durability and massively reduces the risk of warping under repeated heavy braking.
All discs are CNC machine-faced for the perfect braking surface, down to a tolerance of 0.015mm, not only resulting in the perfect performance, but also the perfect finish, to accentuate the overall look of the car.
Naturally all styles are available in a smooth, factory like finish, (pictured) but thanks to the hand-finished nature of the product, enthusiasts using their car in classic motorsport can also choose from a spirally grooved F2000 style for additional pad facing and cooling.
Prices vary based on application and across the European Union due to difference in VAT rates and carriage costs.

TAROX will only add a new product to its range if it can bring something unique to the market. For 35 years TAROX have introduced products to the racing industry and aftermarket that have set new standards which are now taken for granted and considered common place; such as anti heat pistons and grooved discs.
It is no different with the new pedal box from TAROX. Floor mounted, reversed pull pedal boxes are considered to be the most efficient type of pedal box. So TAROX started with this design and added some interesting and unique new features.
Designed to incorporate the new TAROX master cylinders perfectly (another first! – more to follow) the TAROX pedal box is a floor mounted three pedal unit which has been designed using FEA stress analysis to create a very strong, rigid platform with the minimal weight.
Its high quality 6082 aluminium alloy construction weighs in at only 5.4Kg., and also allows it to cope with huge amounts of force, making it ideal for GT and touring car applications. All 3 pedals have a high friction coating and pivot on high quality bearings which provide a much smoother action compared to the more commonly used uniball system. The pedal box is designed to operate a cable throttle and hydraulic clutch. The pedals have built in adjustable stops with a torsion spring and removable catch plate on the accelerator.
A quickly removable lightweight alloy billet false floor keeps the unit neat and easy to use and also offers quick access to the master cylinders and bias adjustment. The pedal ratio is 3.7:1
The prices for the new Floor Mounted Pedal Box varies from country to country based on whether VAT applies or not.

The Porsche 993 was produced from 1994 to 1997 and the car is now a late-model classic, upheld by some to be the best 911 ever. That may be debatable, but one thing’s for sure; brake technology has moved on since the Nineties and there’s room for improving those OE brakes.
Enter Dutch tuner and Porsche specialist Klaas van Vuure of Beek Autoracing. Klaas needed something to give his cars a braking edge so he teamed up with TAROX, to produce a new disc and caliper upgrade kit for the 993 that TAROX
have now put into production.
The kit contains:
2 x 360 x 30mm vented discs
(Choice of F2000 spiral grooved or Sport Japan drilled and grooved)
2 x B360 10 piston calipers anodised in black (Red available at extra cost)
1 x set of 4 brake pads (Choice of compounds to suit intended use)
2 x adapting brackets
1 x pair of braided hoses
Although originally designed for race use this upgrade is equally suitable for street and track day use. The calipers have all the seals and protection required to withstand the rigours of day to day street driving. For track use a change of pads is all that’s required.

TAROX already offers an extensive range of calipers in a multitude of sizes, yet they have identified a need for a high performance caliper for use with 360 to 375mm diameter, 60mm wide discs.
The new B360 10 piston caliper fits the bill perfectly.
The B360 is certainly a big caliper, but despite its size, it just weights 3.6 kg.
It combines fast reacting braking with durability, and isn’t too hard on your discs. This callipers has been designed for intensive race and fast road use and is therefore ideal for cars used both on the road and on trackdays.
Unlike dedicated race calipers no dust caps are required to switch from race to road. It is just a matter of swapping to the appropriate pads.
The 10 piston arrangement ensures the pistons are laid out in the most effective position to deliver the smoothest and most powerful braking action for this size of disc.
The calipers are supplied in an anodised finish which will keep them looking good for
a great many years to come.
You can opt for a sober hard-anodised grey finish or, for something more
dramatic, black gold, blue or red anodised finishes are available.
The B360 calipers can be specified as part of TAROX big brake conversions using 360-375mm discs.
Typical applications would be heavish, high performance cars such as the VW Golf R32 BMW 335i, Ford Mustang and many other similar vehicles, in any case, please contact us for more information on application possibilities and prices.

Tarox brake components have been used extensively on both road and track all over the world, so it is no surprise that when developing a new brake fluid it needed to be equally adaptable and strike the perfect balance between high performance and everyday
Tarox ROAD RACE has been specially formulated as a high performance alternative to DOT 5.1 and offers the best of both worlds: it delivers outstanding performance under racing conditions where braking systems must operate at very high temperatures, yet it is suitable for everyday road use where it is essential that a brakefluid conforms to the requirements of car manufactures.
Boiling point at 314°C
Its high boiling point in excess of 300°C makes it ideal for virtually every race condition – yet unlike many high performance fluids – doesn’t require replacement at short intervals.
It conforms and exceeds DOT 4 specification and can be legally used in road vehicles in the USA, Canada and all EU countries and is perfectly suited for use with both Tarox and other aftermarket brake systems.
