EBC Apollo Big Brake Kit for Civic Type R EP3, Integra DC5 and Acura RSX Type S | BBK002

Give your Honda the braking feel to match the way it drives

A responsive chassis is even more enjoyable when you can trust what happens under your right foot. The EBC Apollo BBK002 pairs four-piston front calipers with 330 mm floating discs for the listed Civic Type R EP3, Integra DC5 and Acura RSX Type S applications. It is a substantial hardware upgrade for drivers who want a firmer pedal and more confidence as the braking gets demanding.

Kit reference: BBK002. Exact SKUs for every available configuration are listed below.

Precision you can feel at the pedal

The caliper's reinforced bridge resists flex under pressure, helping keep your brake inputs clear and controlled. The floating discs can expand independently of their bells as they heat up, reducing thermal stress during repeated use. You get the detail that matters when you are balancing the car into a corner.

Calipers made for the way you use your car

The road calipers are designed, manufactured and assembled in the UK from heat-treated, low-pressure cast aluminium. Their two-piece bodies use grade 12.9 bridge bolts, with hard-anodised aluminium pistons, stainless-steel bleed nipples and wear plates. The material and construction put substance behind the appearance of the upgrade.

External dust boots keep road dirt and debris away from the pistons, with high-temperature EPDM fluid seals behind them. A hard-anodised body gives corrosion protection beneath the high-temperature colour coating, while the single pad-retention bolt allows quick pad changes when servicing is due.

Choose your kit

Both versions use 330 x 28 mm front discs and four-piston calipers. Version 2 provides extra ball-joint clearance. It is a clearance-specific choice, not a larger-disc upgrade; match the version to your suspension and the application rows below.

Black, Blue, Red and Yellow are the painted road-caliper choices, with external dust boots and aluminium pistons. Choose the finish you want to see behind your wheels without changing the kit specification for that version.

Race competition is a different hardware and pad specification: hard-anodised calipers, stainless-steel castellated pistons and RP-X race pads. It is intended for dedicated track and race use, rather than chosen as another paint colour.

Road-kit front pads: Version 1: Yellowstuff; Version 2: Yellowstuff.

Yellowstuff is a fast-road compound with everyday usability. For regular circuit use, choose a pad and caliper configuration around that job; the Race competition option, where offered, uses RP-X race pads.

What is included

With the painted road configurations you receive:

• Two Apollo front calipers in the selected road colour
• Two fully floating two-piece front discs to the selected kit specification
• Front brake pads (Version 1: Yellowstuff; Version 2: Yellowstuff)
• Stainless-steel braided brake lines
• Vehicle-specific mounting brackets and fitting hardware
• 1 litre of BF307+ Super DOT 4 brake fluid

The Race competition front brake assembly combines Apollo competition calipers, fully floating two-piece discs to the selected specification and RP-X race pads.

Technical specifications

Kit options and SKUs

Vehicle fitment

Match your vehicle, engine, year and any brake-package notes in the table. Disc measurements in this fitment table describe the original brakes; the new kit dimensions are listed under Technical specifications and in the SKU table.

Application years can vary by engine and kit option; check the detailed rows for your vehicle.

Fitting and looking after your brakes

Have the kit fitted by a qualified brake specialist. The installation needs clean, sound mounting surfaces, the correct hardware and torques, proper bleeding, and clearance checks through steering and suspension movement. Dust-shield removal or modification can be part of fitting; keep any vehicle-specific instructions in the application table with the job.

The road kit is designed around the original master cylinder and rear brakes. If you have changed the master cylinder or rear brake arrangement separately, have your installer check compatibility and brake balance before ordering.

Follow the fitting instructions and the bedding procedure for the supplied pad compound before demanding full performance. When rear components are supplied, fit them as part of the intended brake upgrade. Inspect pad and disc condition regularly, especially during circuit use, and keep the hydraulic system in good condition.
