ROTORA BIG BRAKE KIT VS. STOCK BRAKES

CALIPER WEIGHT (loaded calipers):
Rotora: 9.9 lbs. Stock: 15.1 lbs.

DISC WEIGHT:
Rotora: 17.2 lbs Stock: 18.4 lbs.


NOTE: Rotora big brake kit needs minimum 17” wheels. View attachment for brake clearance chart.

FEATURES/BENEFITS:

-Rotora’s two piece cast aluminum, heat-treated (4-piston) calipers (application specific) provides stock pedal feel while increasing the clamp load/force to ensure equal distribution of weight transfer during braking.
-Rotora’s street performance pads that are included were designed to improved stopping distance while keeping the squeal at a minimum. Provides higher coefficient of friction which work exceptionally well under high temperatures. The ideal pad for all-around performance.
-Stainless steel, braided brake lines prevent brake hose expansion under pressure and improve stiffer pedal feel. All Rotora’s steel braided lines are DOT approved and pressure tested to 3,000 psi to meet FMVSS-106 (Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards) standard.
-Cross drilled/slotted rotors to ensure heat dissipation for continuous hard braking (which helps reduce warping, and brake fade) and keeping the rotor and brake pad surface free of excess brake dust and debris.
-"E-coated" (black) finish plating on rotors to prolong life and reduce rust build up.
-Direct bolt on replacement to all stock front brake system (some applications requires the removal of the stock dust cover shield).
-Larger surface area compared to stock O.E. Acura CL/TL rotors which will increase brake performance.
-All systems are abs compatible.
-All pistons with dust seals.

 

Will it fit the '01 CL-S stock rim?

 

here is the brake clearance chart :

BRAKE CHART

 

Ok so how do you use that?

 

This is only the front set, correct?

 

how does that chart work?

 

Interesting...I hope I can get some cash together before the end of the buy

 

O.K. who are the brake experts ? Are these decent ? I know it's not Brembo but they're a grand cheaper. Is this the way to go ? Opinions please, thanks.

 

Can you get the kit without the SS lines ? What would that cost be ?

 

why dont you give them a call @ toll free 888.990.0899? Ask for Loren & he'll take care of u.

 

That's a good idea. It looks like you have them on, if so how do you like the setup ? Thanks.

 

i never purchased a set of brembo so i cant tell u which one is better... but i can tell u that the pedal feels very smooth & solid without the stock spongy feels... the brake distance reduced i would say 30% compare to stock... very smooth & powerful... i think this setup is worth the money for performance & safety.

 

Thanks for the info, i'm seriously considering. Anyone else with an opinion ? By the way, what is the rotor size, 13s ?

 

yea i think they'r 13"... 330mm which is 2mm bigger than brembo's rotors

 

Is it possible to use the stock rotors with the rotora 4 pot calipers?

 

Will these work with the 6spd and will they fit the stock rim?

 

yes they'll fit 6speed... u can download the brake clearance chart to see if it fits stock typeS wheel... any more question u can give them a call @ toll free 888.990.0899

 

Hey guys this is also in the "other" forum...

 

F.Y.I. guys, i ordered a set yesterday and they'll be installed next week. Loren at Rotora was great to work with and i think this is a hell of a deal I did get the ceramic pads for even better stopping and less dust. We'll see, i hope they are close to Brembo performance for a thousand less. I'll let you guys know once i've road tested

P.S. I'll need better braking next week after my next mod

 

trust me... after it breaks in... it feels AWESOME

 

Thanks for setting this up

 

Redrider, what's your next mod, are you going FI? Did you get the turbo?

 

S/C, NO DOUBT!!!

 

The SC is being installed at my dealer. It should be ready on Monday I can't wait !!

 

You know me well, my Brother

 

so let me get this straight, no problem w/ 01/02 stock typeS rims? also how much for the ceremic pads?

 

I'm not sure about the stockers, i've got 18s. The ceramics were about $90 more than the semi mettallics. Give Loren a call, he was very helpful.

 

F.Y.I. for those of you who are considering this deal. Even though i have aftermarket 18 inch Volks, i still needed spacers for the calipers to fit right. It was very close, but they were still needed. Still waiting to test, i will follow up with review.

 

Where did you get the spacers? That's the one thing I'm worried about, that the caliper will not clear my rims, it was very close with the stock rims already.

 

I got them from Rotora, they are made by H+R and cost $65. Still a great deal, now all i have to do is test them !!

 

They're on They look great and feel good. I haven't really pushed them, but you know they are there !! Now i'll feel better in the twisties and i'm ready for the track

 

give it another 100miles... it'll feel even better... u would have to SLAM it a little in order for it to break in... im happy to hear that u like them dude

 

Yeah, i'm glad i got them, especially with the extra power of the SC. Thanks again for starting this up.

 

This is one of the things I was afraid of.
My RIMS are really close to my stock Calipers too.
I can’t even get my pinky finger in-between there.

I was really considering getting in on this, but I would need to test-fit a wheel first before I spent that much.
Plus I’m almost sure my 16” snow rims wouldn’t clear.

OK guys now I got a question for u.

I am looking into getting 19" for my car, but they only come in +45 offset. Now I am also gonna be throwing on my H&R Racing springs. Question will that all fit? No, then is it because it would not be able to tuck underneath the fender? So then I could simply roll the fender to allow the rims to fit, right?

Now the other question I have is will a BIG brake kit fit my rims. I would emagine that a lower offset (+45) compared to stock would allow more clearance for the calipers.

Oh yea the rims are 19x8 with a +45 offset.

I second those questions...

My setup is 19x8 +47 and I have Comptech springs. Need to know if this will also fit if I changed to H&R Sport. I have no idea how to read the brake clearance chart.

Can anyone help? Thanks

-Patrick

 

I believe that ur's will clear I am really curious as to know if my setup will clear.










Juker008

 

again, if u guys hav any questions regarding brake clearance, feel free to contact Rotora directly.

19x8 +45 should clear it

 

Red rider, could you post some pics of the big brake kit when you get a chance, I wanna see what kind of clearance it has from the rims.

 

On ur 19"s u said that they are 7.5" wide? what offset do u have and how much space do u have between the caliper and the rim.





Tnx
