Hyundai Genesis Brembo Big Brake Kit Upgrade on my 9th Gen Honda Civic Si

[@lemuelriolo]

Wow! I can't believe you use Hyundai Genesis Brembo Big Brake Kit to fit your FB6! I remember TL Type S Big Brake Kit can fit to FB6. Then, you are the first show about Hyundai Genesis! Good work!!

[@StayLurking]

Thank you!

[@d0mochi]

The Genesis works well on the 10th gen civic too. The mounting brackets line up

[@Korean_Jesus]

Most cars will be direct fit, the problem is if people are spending the time to find the right calipers

[@rs3tuber425]

Great brake kit for the street and some spirited and short autocross but the caliper still has piston booths although they are better than your average car booth because at least they are silicone. Unfortunately they don't stand a chance for a road course, for that you will need straight precision cut pistons made of high temp alloy. When I say precision cut piston what I mean exactly with this is that the whole(bore) in the caliper is so precise that the piston fits perfectly without getting dust inside and for that you are talking forged calipers. I recommend either AP racing, wildwood or stoptech trophy model, all 3 brands have no piston booths. I personally had stop tech and Brembo GT, not to be EVER confused with the lower tier Brembo sports that MOST factory cars use. Just to summarize, these brake kit is beyond excellent for most people, that is all you will ever need to street, spirited driving and small auto cross but neither the stockfish brake pads nor the booths will stand a chance. The paint will also turn brown because this calipers are simply aluminum and nor forged. Thanks for the video by the way.

[@RicardoCalderon3212]

The KZbin algorithm failed me. Just last week I put brand new EBC rotors and EBC brake pads for my stock caliper setup. For just a little more I could've done this?! Ugh, thanks for the great video. I am gonna be thinking about this forever now!🤣

[@eyelis3757]

Didn’t know you were Hmong til I saw the string on your wrist, anyways just finished this up on my 09 Acura tsx and it fits beautifully.

[@StayLurking]

Haha. Yup. Proud Hmong here. And nice! Glad to hear it all worked out for you as well! 🤙🤙

Hey man, i really loved the look of your old grill and was wondering where i could get my own. its 8th gen style and i really like that. Love your build btw

[@StayLurking]

Thanks. It is the OEM 2012 Honda Civic Si Sedan Front grill. I just paint matched the top trim portion of it.

[@plu6612]

damn, looking GOOD! 17x9? is there and sort of rubbing at full lock?

[@StayLurking]

No. No rubbing at all. Fenders are rolled.

[@jngtruong]

Nice video. I appreciate the details. Did you have to replace your master cylinder or brake booster?

[@StayLurking]

No. Still running the 9th gen OEM BM & brake booster

[@jngtruong]

Appreciate it!

I was one of the first to do this swap, works great, especially when it’s all direct fit

[@95r81cx]

@mannyplus6536 no way will that type of wheel size especially as an aluminum wheel.

[@KyleWithAWhy]

Awesome video man! Think I’m gonna go with this setup as well! By chance, do you think they’d fit with stock 2012si wheels?

[@StayLurking]

Thank you. I would think you'll need a spacer to clear the stock 2012 si wheels.

[@tonyli7317]

Man! You moved on from FB I didn't even know where you went after you sold your EP lol. Nice work! I'm planning to get a FA5 in the future and started looking at mod list, somehow stumbled upon your video! I think this setup might work on FA5 or even EP3 as well. But with bigger brakes comes different brake booster I think? What do you use for your booster after this setup?

[@StayLurking]

Hey Tony! Hope you're doing well. Yea, I'm still alive! 😅 but yes, this setup will work on the 8th,9th,10th gens. I believe the EP and rsx as well, but don't quote me on that. I ran it fine with the 9th gen OEM booster. But i'm sur changing it out to a bigger will only benefit

[@tonyli7317]

[@alextsao4449]

Great build, color combo very classic Honda racing! I have a question as I'm stuck undecided as to which to choose from situation. I have RL calipers with brackets setup to go on my 7g Accord coupe but seeing this makes me curious about the Brembo options. Was there a big performance difference in your experience (between RL vs Brembo Genesis)? And what was reason for changing? Pad choices? Thanks in advance

[@nhantran98]

I got a google drive folder for 10-11th gen civic BBK clearance template if you want

[@JuliusmX]

Does it matter if it’s rear or front calipers

[@StayLurking]

Yes, it does.

[@Jonysmoky_2108]

How much clearance is need for the whole brake kit ?? Just wanna know if i need spacers for my wheels , i have 18"× 8.5" 35+

[@95r81cx]

Those aren't the OEM brake pads FYI, probably aftermarket so do not base your baseline from them. Hawk HP street 5.0 for a lighter civic vs genesis coupe should work well.

[@StayLurking]

Thanks

[@paripepo]

You mentioned it can use Evo/STI pads .. any specific years ? Thanks 🙏🏼

[@mauricerobinson4480]

What offset are you running because because I did the set up on my car, but my wheels cannot fit I’m running 18 x 8 1/2 with 35+ offset so what offset do I need to get for the wheel to fit without spacers?

[@StayLurking]

Although specs are an important factor in clearance for the bbk, many people often overlook the spoke design, which is just as critical and needs to be taken into consideration as well. I mentioned all the specs at the end of the video. 17x9 +27 but this doesn't necessarily mean that another wheel in the similar specs will clear. Hope that helps.

[@angelmejia1915]

Did you find out what offset would be needed?

[@FDsunS]

Hey brother, I’m planning to do this mod for my 8th gen civic. I am running advan RS2 18x8+45. Do you think these wheels will clear the brembo without spacer?

[@StayLurking]

The Advan RS2 does have nice bbk clearance, but if anything you may need a small spacer due to the specs you have.

[@FDsunS]

@@StayLurkingthank you! I’m super excited to do this mod. I will buy like a 10mm spacer. Btw, I saw the red string on your wrist. I have one also lol. Thanks again bro!

[@MrSo-6]

You don't have vibration issues since the center bore of the Rogue rotors are not matching the hub?

[@StayLurking]

I haven't experienced any vibration issues. Car drives and stops like it should.

[@gregorymaldonado8043]

Is t that what the hub center rings are for? What size is needed again?

[@robertbelden7714]

Hey man i have a 9th gen and im looking to upgrade to a bbk but i was just wondering if the stock brake mc in our cars will work fine.

[@StayLurking]

Yes. The stock MC will work just fine. If you want to upgrade the Acura TLS MC is a good option.

[@gallardo20000]

No BMC upgrade? mushy pedal?

[@JuvenFilms]

Nice video bro. Do you think this would fit on a 9.5 gen Accord. I plan on going boosted will like better stopping power 😅

[@StayLurking]

I believe these will fit on the Accord as well. I've seen these on accords and 10th gen civic si as well. I'm just not sure if any extra parts are needed to make it work.

[@HIFONICSM3]

You didn't use the centering ring that came with FFC kit ? How big is the hub on the civic ? I know the 68mm center bor of the rouge rotors are too big so I need that center ring for my 06 TSX.

[@johneddings6843]

What are your exact wheel specs? Currently running 17x8.5 +38

[@ianmorales5500]

Are you able to run oem brake hoses? Or which do you need?

[@StayLurking]

I'm running stoptech stainless steel hoses, but OEM hoses will work just fine.

[@scox636]

Would the rear brembo's fit the 9th gen as well?

[@StayLurking]

A custom bracket is needed in order to fit the rear brembos and maintain the ebrake function.

[@scox636]

[@O.Sanchez]

Looks great!! Quick question, will my stock wheels clear this ? Or do I need to get aftermarket wheels with proper offset ? Thanks!

[@StayLurking]

Stock wheels will not clear. You'll need to run a spacer.

[@Jonysmoky_2108]

I have wheels with +35 18" × 8.5" do i need a spacer as well ???

Cant say for sure, because it depends on the spoke design as well.

[@DEVILDOGGO]

late to the party, just curious what are your wheel specs. I'm trying to figure out if there will be any fitment issues up under stock wheels

[@savagepickle0443]

Are there any bigger rotor options for this setup? If I’m not mistaken the 350z brembo rotors are 324mm ehich can be used on Acura rl big brake swaps for Hondas, with that being said are there any benefits to doing this upgrade over the rl one? Are the caliper pistons any bigger and do they out perform the rl calipers in harsh driving scenarios like at the track I’d love to know some more info on this

[@StayLurking]

When I did my test fit, it seemed like the 350z brembo rotors would work. They are slightly larger, though, as you mention at roughly 324mm. From my personal experience from switching over from the RL to the Genesis BBK, the initial bite and feedback from the genesis bbk is much greater than the RL. They are both 4 pistons calipers. Also, an upside to running the Genesis BBK is that there are no additional brakets needed to mount the calipers. The RL calipers are bulkier too, so wheel options are much more limited in order to clear the RL calipers.

[@seley4866]

Can I use 300mm tsx rotors with this calipers

[@StayLurking]

You'll most likely experience some brake pad over hang and not sure if itl'll fit either.

No, this will not. You will need to run a spacer for it to clear.

[@fbgmmomo7621]

@@StayLurkingwhat size mm spacers would I need

[@StayLurking]

Stock wheels are not meant for BBK's, so you'll probably need a 20-25mm spacer.
