PARAGON Titanium Brake Pad Shims Front – Civic Type R (FK8/FL5) / Evo 5-10 / WRX STI
Paragon titanium pad shims are a simple heat-management upgrade for track use. Fitted between the pads and caliper pistons, the Grade 5 titanium acts as a thermal barrier, lowering caliper and fluid temperatures to help prevent fluid boil, fade and a soft pedal after track sessions.
They also help reduce the brown or black discolouration that the factory FK8 Brembo 4-piston calipers are known for after track use.
Note: Front axle set for OEM calipers. Subaru and Holden applications require the OEM 4-piston Brembo calipers; BRZ / 86 applications require the OEM Brembo calipers. Installation by a professional is recommended. Some listed applications (Acura Integra Type S, Scion FR-S, Cadillac CTS-V, Mustang Boss 302) are US-market vehicles.
