Gran Turismo Brembo Big Brake Kit - Civic EX 01-05
Features & Benefits
This line is dedicated to the most demanding customers. This braking
system originates from the Racing components, consisting of a
ventilated, integral or composite disc, available drilled or slotted, 4,
6 and 8 piston aluminium calipers, a complete set of high performance
brake pads, metal braid tubes and high quality small parts.
1. High Performance Friction Material: Aggressive pads that provide the
highest level of performance.
2. Cross-Drilled or Slotted Discs: Clears gasses, cleans pads for better
“bite”.
3. Mounting Brackets and Assembly Hardware: Aircraft quality included
and pre-torqued specifications.
4. Stainless Steel Braided Brake Line: DOT/TÜV approved.
5. “Floating” Disc Mounting System with Billet Aluminium Hat: Reduce
“Unsprung Weight” for better handling and reduces heat-related
stress; increases brake performance and pedal feel.
6. Four, Six or Eight Piston Cast Aluminium Calipers: Provide maximum
braking force without the flex of sliding calipers. Comparison between floating 2-piece and 1-piece discs
The floating disc mounting system, due to the aluminium alloy hat, reduces the “unsprung” weight for better handling and reduces heat-related stress: the mounting system is designed to allow a specific amount of float in both radial and axial directions. Brembo has engineered
special springs that are used on every other fastener in order to
slightly preload the assembly. This has been done to prevent excessive
noise from the system during street use. The one-piece discs (both for
the Sport and GT lines) are specifically designed in the goose-neck
area to minimize thermal distortion and thus disc warping under severe
use conditions. The one-piece discs
provide excellent stopping power ranging from everyday traffic conditions to more spirited high performance driving, and fit into the
budget of any enthusiast.
