- The owner of this JDM EP3 blueprinted his engine and made 270bhp. He now needs some decent stopping power and has gone for Spoon Sports' Monoblock Calipers. Not only that, he changed almost everything else in the braking department. What a difference it makes now.
Spoon Sports Monoblock Caliper - 45020-MBR-G02
Goodridge Braided Brake Lines - SHD0380-4P-BK
EBC Yellowstuff Pads - DP41254R/DP41193R
MTEC Brake Discs Black Coating
ATE Type 200 Brake Fluid
Honda Rear Calipers - 43018S5AJ02/43019S5AJ02

What do you guys think of this big brake set up?
PerformanceCars so they spoon sport brake calipers are made by Nissan?
Joe Blog nissin.
Kyle Caldwell
Nissin it is pal and yes they are. 👍🏻
Definitely need a full video on this Civic. Nice work.
Ep3 JDM loving it they're awesome cars. Must be pre facelift. Good luck with the racing and sweet vid.
nice contrast with the timelapse music! dope brake disks :D
Nice ep3!
looking forward to the review on this import ep3, neat install loving the choice of the spoon calipers, ive heard they dont have a dust boot around the piston so that area should be cleaned out from time to time. cheers fazz
This is pretty much the setup I want on my usdm ep3.
Great video mate! Has been alot of helpful for me to get an idea on going big brake. Ill be upgrading my brake callipers on my ep2 with the premier edition ep3 calliper soon. Hopefully its similar and alot easier :-)
Would love to see more work on the EP3. Not many videos out there about it
I've never seen this channel and wow that is a beautiful car them brakes 😍 I wish I had a car I could just work on I need mine though will defo keep lookout for review see what its got on it
awesome job brother do more setups. 05 honda hatchback Si still working on my project
Love a good brake upgrade. I went from the stock calipers on the Liberty GT to Brembo 4 pots at the front and 2 pots at the rear. My god do that light up well. Since then I have wanted to go bigger. Thinking about AP racing Caliper or Endless caliper. But they cost so much.
on a new brake install i use a bleed bottle just like you have but i half fill it with new fluid, hold it upside down and crack the bleed nipple, and fill the caliper before tightening the brakeline up saves 10 mins pedal pumping :)
Amazing colour on those brakes haha
They are, I'm jealous as mine as not as blue as those.
I need to upgrade my brakes on my ep3 too. I want to start doing some track days.
I'll never understand why people do the engine first. You should always start with handling mods. A good set of tyres, brakes/pads and decent Suspention will improve acceleration, handling, braking and actual speed. You'll be able to corner faster, brake later and get out of corners quicker. With just engine mods your car will more than likely end up slower and just dangerous as the standard parts are not designed to deal with extra power.
Some people would prefer to say their car has X horsepower, rather than to improve the way it drives. Those who like to drive cars will always invest in the handling first. You have to remember some people just like building cars, and aren't that interested in the drive. It's a shame but it's true, I've met a lot of people like this...
I dont disagree, but there are lots of reasons for engine(power) mods. Intake+exhaust+chip/program/ecu are easy bolt ons too and give lots of sound and sporty feeling. Like my ep3 made 242 on flywheel with AEM, DC Sports and Hondata. True you cant put a lot of that in use until after you go so fast that wheelspin stops. But you get many more advantages with Hondata too. Such as launch control, adjustable vtec point, adjustable rev limiter. I had no more money for any more mods but was happy. I still used good tires and break pads+fluids, but no LSD, bigger brakes or suspension mods.
I can totally agree with that.
I drive a Dc5, on a decent set of coil overs but stock apart from that. Took it for a driving weekend in wale and the limiting factor was definitely the breaks. Even though its on the standard brembos I overheated the breaks a few times and had to stop to cool them down. Definitely in need of upgraded pads, braided lines and new pads when pushing on.
these brake discs look so sweet)))
Totally agree. The black painted parts that won't touch the brake pads will also not rust too. Think I'll be getting some for mine in the future!
It gonna be awesome!!! Good luck!!!
@@PerformanceCarsChannel what brand are the rotors?
I have stock front calipers and I have the brakes locking up too. Almost if my ABS didn't even exist. May be Spoon calipers is the solution. :)
team dynamics wheels cool !!!
Wait until you see the wheels he has for the review 👍
XD
what is the biggest brake rotor that will fit on 15'' civic eg?
would the spoon caliper still fit on a new big brake rotor?
Would you happen to know which way around the slider pin go on the rear of the EP3? Thank you in advance for your assistance.
Really nice video , car , and brakes bro ! :) Just something. When u try the ds2500(ferodo) pads , u will understand :)) love from cyprus!
Hey Stephan, thanks for the comment and support 👍 I've tried the DS2500 and to be honest, they are only slightly better than the yellow stuff but useless on track for my driving. I use race pads on my S2000, and although they squeak like crazy, I haven't come across anything close to it's performance. It just depends on what you will be using the car for.
Bro what race pads do you use on the s2000 ? thanks !
Agreed with Yellowstuff being about the same as DS2500 - I never liked my DS2500. I failed to see what the hype was about!
What a great and informative video.. Just wanna ask you if you don't mind please..... What is the size of your front Rotors? Thank you sir
i have a honda steam RN1 K20A1, have you come across this car and if so do you think there is a turbo kit I can fit on it
Do you upgrade de brake master cylinder ?
can you please give more details about the feelings beofre and after the replacement ? Actually i can get spoon calibers for half price but i'm wondering if it is worth it... (or if i should just replace the disks and pads...)
I'm looking for better brakes for track days. (today i'm running with oem calipers, grn disks and ds2500 pads)
Any chance you can tell me the wheel specs for the vehicle and offset as well? I ordered the same brake kit but unsure if it will clear my wheels.
hi my dear, i got question about this silicone hose from tegiwa air box to ultra street manifold... will it fit 70mm TB? can you tell me where i can buy it? thanks
Hey man, I've been wanting to fit spoon calipers up front and new calipers around back + braided brake lines all around. How difficult a job is it for a beginner? Please reply.
Some nice upgrades there 👍. Wheels could do with a refurb though (or maybe a set of GP's or CR93's??).
These are his temporary wheels. He's saved the good stuff for the review 👍
Looking forward to seeing his choice 👍
Can`t waiting for a review :)
Are the rotors on the right side?!
put some copper grease on those pins to stop them seizing up
Bond - what was the bedding in procedure please? Thanks
PerformanceCars, can we have them on 4 wheels/ or only on the front? hatchback 2000 ek9 here.
Hey man :) Nice video as always. Keep up the good work :) Where are you based in the UK out of interest?
Hey DrWockles, thanks for the comment and support. I'm in London, yourself?
PerformanceCars ah I'm in London too. south east to be specific. I did see you around the O2 in the Integra video :)
DrWockles. I'm in Inverness, Scottish Highlands. Just saying ;)
Hi guys I have a ep3 type r I lowered it 30mm in February on eibachs and I was wondering why the rears I can't see any difference and the height keeps swapping it's very bizarre can anyone help me out? Cheers
What's with the rear fog light? Looks out of place.
Hi one fast question what Brake Discs size you need for Spoon Sports Brake .??
I love your videos Man, if you can help me to solve a question about the spoon tongs, the weight of them is 2.4 kg for the twinblock and 2.6 kg for the monoblock, but is that the weight of each tweezer or pair? thank you if you can help me, hugs.
shaftec? i supply that brand. surlrised to see you use them
Wow awesome brakes where did you purchase bro?
Can I get 6pot calapers on my EK 15" wheels?
Hello... may i know the size of rear disc? Is it the stock size of ep3?
What do you do for a living? Your day job?
howd you manage to pull 270 bhp? whats your set up
why does everybody fit discs the wrong way around aggressive cut forward please
When you gonna road test my Clio rs200 Bond ;)
Holy crap, I totally forget Lukas. I will contact you soon!
Do these use s2000 pads?
Wheres the copper grease on the back of the pads?
Not needed, it only makes a mess, if your brakes squeal maybe try it but otherwise stay clear.
Bro why black rims
Thumbs up for anything EP3 related :P
Hi what mods does the car have
Hi James, all will be revealed in the review in a week or so. Just wait a little longer 👍
Ahhhhh ok 😀
Why not spoon break lines ?
Brake
I'd have been so pissed off if I asked a "friend" to look after my car and I came back and it was filthy like that.
It was all going so well until it got to the god dam EBC pads! lolol I would say matching the amazing JDM goodness that are Spoon calipers to the shite that is EBC pads is tantamount to Sacrilege! lol
what mods were done to the ep3 engine wise to make 270bhp?
Shay Earle 10 grand and a lot of tea
Shay Earle I wanna know as well
Jdm ep3 ownerヾ(*´∀｀*)ﾉ
Caesar Chan same here i have an 02 jdm ep3
Shay Earle full bolt ons cams and map probably
@Lucky Rooster it is a type R
please dont speed up parts of your videos, i wanna watch you step by step ;)
Hey, I wanted to show the step by step clips but the video ended up being around 20 mins long! Not sure if you can sit through 20 mins 😳
I could! 😀
same tbh
Yes I can
Kramzy were not american so of course we would like longer vids.
60 to 0 for break in?!! you're not suppose to come to stop or ler the abs kick in
Lovely car but the wheels r shocking oem FTW
Who is she she’s gorgeous
Brakes and hoses worth more than the car lol.
Lol! His engine alone is worth more than a few of my cars!
Baffles me how someone spends that much money on something thats never going to be used to its full potential. I bet the standard brakes are more than enough for his style of driving, shame he's just doing it for looks.
I understand what you are saying but everyone is different. Some like to enjoy their cars in different ways. I've seen many supercar owners drive like a tortoise and their cars are thousands of times more expensive than the EP3.
Matthew O'Gorman
I mean it's got 270bhp, so idk, the standard brakes mightn't be good enough for that kind of power. Better safe than sorry anyway.
