This VTEC Turbocharged hatchback requires no introduction – Honda hit the nail on the head providing legendary performance on both street and track with their Honda Civic FK8 Type R.
Equipped with Brembo 4 piston calipers paired with beefy 350mm rotors on the front axle, there is no shortage of braking power – further enhanced by Intima brake pads.
Utilising the 1678 pad shape seen in the ever common Evo and STi Brembo calipers, sourcing performance brake pads has never been easier as Intima have them available in SS, SR and Type-Dv2 compounds.
Brake squeal and noise is a common complaint from the OEM brake pads but with the SS and SR compounds with shims provided, this is greatly minimised if not eliminated completely.
Not just about noise and dust reduction, the Intima SR goes further and unlocks more braking performance to make the driving experience more engaging, enjoyable and safer on those spirited hill drives with it’s desirable bite and anti-fade characteristics.
When it’s time to take the FK8 to it’s natural habitat and unlock the potential that Honda has reserved for the driver, the Intima Type-Dv2 will deliver the braking performance and confidence required to maximise the Civic’s prowess on the track.
Even as a basic light track duty brake pad, the Type-Dv2 holds its own when put into demanding conditions.
Just as Honda intended, the caliper and brake pad on the rear brake setup is relatively small achieving the intended brake balance on the Civic FK8 Type R.
A pad shape not shared with any other car besides the FK2, Intima have you covered with our SS and SR compounds.
