Rear big brake kit

[Bigboss]

I have seen other platforms with more advanced rear electronic parking brake system than us offer reasonably price bbk for the rear. Kinda ridiculous we have absolutely nothing mainstream to change the rear, doesn’t got be a total caliper change but none of these big performance companies can make a bolt on bracket change to run bigger rotors atleast? Nobody wants big rotors from your bbks in the front and to be stuck with those tiny rotors in the back yeah the rear doesn’t do much braking but it just doesn't look good once you go big upfront only. I know the company rage is the only one offering a rear kit but the shipping cost overseas is expensive, if their capable of upgrading calipers to using big rotors why cant the other bigger performance companies we have do the same?



this is how we end up looking like with just big rotors in the front

I'm doing this now. Working on the rear brackets. Rotors are done already.

anybody want to grab a set of crv calipers rotors and pads on ebay to test fitment? I would do it but im swapping to type r rear knuckles/hubs/calipers/rotors/pads for awd integration.

Update to brake upgrade.

This converts all non Type R to 305mm x 11mm rear rotor. Retains factory parking brake.

Rear caliper bracket prototype fitup went perfectly. Going to get them made in cast iron next and do another fitup.

Plan is to also make a rear dust shield and sell a whole conversion kit

The type r shield may work unless you’ve already tried.

Would love to hear more about this and where you are with the process. I’m looking to upgrade brakes next and would be awesome to tackle both the front and rear.

Yes! Anything new on a rear brake upgrade?

The bolt pattern on the ctr hub is different than the other Civics, it may work if you re-drill it but more than likely not.
