PARAGON 6-Piston Front Big Brake Kit – Honda Civic Type R (FK8/FL5)
This Paragon front big brake kit is a complete, bolt-on upgrade for the Honda Civic Type R FK8 and FL5, and with the 355mm rotor saves 4 kg of unsprung weight over the OEM brakes (FK8 2017–2019). It pairs Paragon's 6-piston calipers with fully floating 2-piece rotors for stronger bite, better modulation and far more thermal capacity than the factory brakes – suited to hard street driving and regular track work.
Options: 355 x 32mm or 370 x 36mm rotors, hard anodised or ENP caliper finish, and Paragon P2, P3, R5 or R7 brake pad compound.
Note: Retains the OEM ABS, master cylinder and rear brakes. Larger rotor options need suitable wheel clearance – check before ordering. Bleed the brake system after fitting and bed in the pads before hard use. Installation by a professional is recommended.
Features
- Paragon PA015 or PA035 6-piston calipers, 6061-T6 aluminium – the two differ only in the maximum rotor size they accept
- Titanium nitride (TiN) coated stainless steel pistons act as a thermal barrier against fluid boil
- Fully floating 2-piece slotted rotors with 72 directional curved ventilation vanes – up to 30% cooler than OEM
- CM-250 high-carbon alloy cast iron rotor rings
- Hard anodised 6061-T6 aluminium rotor hats with stainless bobbins and anti-rattle clips
- Caliper finish: hard anodised or ENP (electroless nickel plated)
- Piston sizing suits the OEM ABS and master cylinder; works with the factory rear brakes
- Pre-assembled front axle kit – bolt-on, no modifications required
- 72 curved directional vanes per rotor
- Caliper piston sizes 27mm / 31.8mm / 38.1mm
- Minimal change to brake bias with the OEM rear brakes
