GiroDisc Honda FK2, FK8, FL5 Civic Type R Front Rotors A1-166 is an intensive high performance autoparts for Honda Civic variants. The specialty comes from it design intent above others.

The primary purpose of the Girodisc system is to reduce unsprung and overall vehicle weight. The secondary purpose is to increase the ventilation and cooling capacity of the brake disc while retaining it's original dimensions. 

GiroDisc Honda FK2, FK8, FL5 Civic Type R Front Rotors is indeed a direct replacement for the OE disc, no modifications required. The disc will bolt directly to the car and work with OE calipers perfectly.

The rotor story:

The rotor utilizes a curved vane design, developed in racing to act as a centrifugal pump to force cooling air through the disc.

The rotor and hat have a floating mount system, which utilizes 10 high strength alloy steel drive pins, manufactured by Girodisc in the USA to our own specifications land cadmium plated for a long lasting corrosion resistance. 

These pins take the load from braking actions while maintaining the axial and radial float between the hat and disc. The pins are secured by class 12.9 cap screws with hardened washers. 

In order to keep the rotors from making noise when cold, the pins are mounted with anti-noise spring washers on the rotor side.

This will allow the rotor to grow with heat expansion but eliminate the rattle and noise associated with floating rotors. 

This float also allows the rotor to self center between the pads. Once the Girodisc system is in place, simply replace the cast iron rotor when needed.

The rotor and hat have a floating mount system, which utilizes high strength alloy steel drive pins, manufactured by GiroDisc to it own specifications and cadmium plated for a long lasting corrosion resistance. 

These pins take the load from braking actions while maintaining the axial and radial float between the hat and disc. The pins are secured by grade 12 cap screws with hardened washers. 

In order to keep the rotors from making noise when cold, the pins are mounted with anti-noise spring clips on the rotor side which allow the rotor to grow with heat expansion but eliminate the rattle and noise associated with floating rotors. This float also allows the rotor to self center between the pads.
