I just got informed by Rotora-tech that they will be releasing their rear brake kit for the Honda S2000 early 2008.

"Yes Rotora will be coming out with a rear 2-piston caliper brake kit with
330x30mm disc. It will be available sometimes in early 2008. the list
price will be $1695.00"

What do you guys think?

 

It's about time !!!!!!!!!!

 

I understand why peeps upgrade front brakes, but why the rear?

 

Increased brake performance.
Maintain brake bias.
Improve pedal feel and control.
Improve heat dissipation.
Looks good.

 

The rear brakes blow chunks in our cars. That's why.

 

Are the oem's really that bad?

Has anyone felt the difference with another rear brake kit? I know Wilwood had one for the rear, only it didn't support the handbrake I think. I presume this one will.

 

in a lot of the older threads i dredged up while researching the lack of rear brake kits some autocross and track guys frequently reported rear rotor temps that were significantly higher than rear, acceptable temperatures, but higher than fronts.

if rotora falls through, look what i found today:

Thats a lot of money for no caliper/piston upgrade.

 

why do you even need a caliper piston upgrade? you want a ventilated rotor more than anything else...

 

For that amount of money, I would want an extra piston. Just my .02
