{"product_id":"civic-x-big-brake-kit-wlr","title":"Honda Civic Gen 8\/9\/10\/11 Big Brake Kit","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShortly after we got our 10th gen Civic we realized there was a distinct lack of brake kit options. We set out to put together a brake kit that uses the a range of high quality components which also gives the customer control over their consumable costs and we feel we hit the bullseye with what we put together.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTo start, the kit utilizes EBC Apollo 4 piston brake calipers. These calipers are high quality units made in the UK and are offered in two versions, Street and Track. The Street version is better than any OEM brake setup without question and bring a host of upgrades to the table like:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eHard anodized aluminum pistons to reduce heat transfer to the brake fluid.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eHard anodized aluminum caliper bodies help to stiffen the body of the caliper and reduce flex under hard use as well as be more corrosion resistant.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e4 color options (black, red, blue, yellow) that is applied as a high temperature lacquer which won't degrade under high temperatures like powdercoated finishes do on other calipers.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eStainless steel bleed screws and crossover tubes which won't corrode from time and wear like plated steel parts do.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDust boots, while common on many OEM fixed calipers, are not often found in aftermarket braking calipers and help to keep the fluid seals from leaking in very dusty or corrosive environments as well as protect the pistons from corrosion.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eChanging pads only requires the removal of one bolt and they pull out of the top, no messing around with finicky pins like factory style fixed calipers use.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTons of pad compound options which gives the customer a wide selection to choose from to give them their desired brake feedback and performance.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Track version caliper is very similar to the Street version with some small differences. It is only available in a grey hard anodized finish. This finish is impervious to heat, brake fluid and brake clean. It also does not use dust boots since they are not able to withstand prolonged heavy brake heat without degrading. Lastly, the piston material is stainless steel instead of hard anodized aluminum to reduce heat transfer to the brake fluid.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eThe amazing features don't stop at the caliper though. The rotors used are from a Nissan 350Z and we did this for the following reasons:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eIt has both 1 and 2 piece aftermarket options which are both easy to source and respectively not expensive.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eIt has a 12mm larger diameter (324mm vs 312mm for Si) and more importantly it is 5mm thicker (30mm vs 25mm). This results in a rotor that has ~25% greater thermal capacity than the stock Si rotor. For customers who want to use their car for track use, this is paramount in keeping brakes from failing or wearing excessively fast.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eThe dimensions of this rotor allow for it to be used in conjunction with the factory brake dust shield which protects the rubber boots on the ball joint and tie rod end from brake heat that can cause them to harden and crack.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eThe combination of this rotor diameter and the EBC caliper mean there is less than a 2% brake bias change from the factory Si caliper setup. This is very often overlooked by others and is almost never correct with calipers retrofitted from other vehicles (sometimes it's as far off as 20%!), and because it is changed so little, the factory ABS system will still function exactly as it should with minimal changes to brake pedal travel.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cspan color=\"#000000\" style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eBut wait, there's more!

Upgraded braided stainless steel brake lines are available but the factory brake lines are compatible with the EBC calipers too.
