Just had them fitted this afternoon with DOT5.1, god its good now. I thought the 288's were up to the job, but these are soo much better. Plus they look much better filling the 16"s :yes:

Well happy!!!

312 conversion on my wish list :yes:

Its a deffo. Especially if your interested in track days like me.

I wish I'd done this when I had the front brakes replaced earlier in the year. The 288s - at least with OEM pads - really don't seem up to the job for fast road driving, let alone track. It's pretty frustrating to have to back off from a spirited B-road blast because the pedal is starting to sink.

Yea you will need to change the pads. The OEM pads cant really handle the car standard. I ran EBC green stuff and then Ferodo DS2500 and they feel much better.

Once these OEM pads go, i'll be on for a set of DS2500's.

Ds2500's , 5.1 fluid and 312 conversion are a match made in heaven loved this set up on my fabia more brakes than it will ever need
