Slimline 3-Piston Front Big Brake Kit

The Ksport Slimline 3 Piston 286mm Front Big Brake Kit is engineered to significantly upgrade the braking performance of your 2001-2005 Honda Civic. This kit addresses the common issue of aftermarket big brake kits not fitting with aggressive or factory wheels that have limited caliper clearance. Ksport developed the Slimline Caliper with a single-side piston design, mimicking the thickness of OEM calipers, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of wheels, including those with very limited brake caliper clearance. The kit utilizes 3-pot calipers, maintaining a similar appearance to multi-piston calipers while offering enhanced stopping capability. CNC machined carbon steel caliper brackets are included to ensure a direct bolt-on installation to the OEM caliper bracket location. The kit comes standard with SC5 Street Pads, formulated for optimal braking performance on the street and for occasional track use, while also reducing brake dust by over 50% and minimizing noise and rotor wear. The operating temperature range for these pads is between 194°F and 1022°F. For improved pedal feel and response, the kit includes D.O.T. compliant stainless-steel braided brake lines. These lines prevent expansion under pressure, leading to a quicker and firmer pedal feel compared to stock rubber lines. Buyers can choose between slotted or cross-drilled rotors; cross-drilled rotors are recommended for daily driven vehicles due to better cooling, while slotted rotors are advised for track use. Ksport Big Brake kits are built to order, with an estimated production and delivery time of 4-6 weeks.
