- Those who want a plug-and-play solution that works harmoniously with the Accord CL7’s chassis and ABS
The SPOON Monocoque Caliper Set for Honda Accord CL7 (Part No: 45020-MBF-G01) is a premium brake upgrade engineered with racing precision.
Compared to other aftermarket or even OEM solutions, it stands out in several key performance areas.
Here’s a breakdown of its best advantages versus competitor brands like Brembo, Endless, Project Mu, or AP Racing:
Top Advantages of the SPOON Monocoque Caliper Set (CL7)
1. Monocoque Forged Construction
- Advantage: Unlike traditional multi-piece calipers, SPOON’s monocoque design is forged from a single aluminum billet.
- Benefit: Increased rigidity and reduced flex under hard braking — translates into sharper pedal feel and more consistent performance.
- Compared to competitors: Many brands use two-piece designs that may allow micro-flex under extreme heat.
2. Extremely Lightweight
- Advantage: Each caliper is significantly lighter than OEM and many rival aftermarket calipers.
- Benefit: Reduces unsprung weight and rotational mass, which enhances cornering, ride quality, and acceleration response.
- Compared to: Brembo and Project Mu are slightly heavier in equivalent 4-piston setups due to their thicker construction.
3. Optimized for Civic/Accord Platform Geometry
- Advantage: Designed specifically for Honda platforms like the CL7.
- Benefit: Provides perfect balance of piston sizing and pad contact without compromising ABS behavior or brake bias.
- Compared to: Generic kits from Wilwood or some AP setups require more tuning to match OEM brake bias.
4. Superior Heat Dissipation
- Advantage: Ventilated piston design and high-flow architecture.
- Benefit: Minimizes brake fade even after prolonged track use — keeps braking consistent.
- Compared to: Brembo GT and Endless systems also offer great cooling, but Spoon’s lightweight calipers heat up and cool down faster due to thinner wall material.
5. OEM Compatibility with Upgrade Simplicity
- Advantage: Bolt-on fit with OEM brake lines and knuckles (with Spoon rotors or compatible discs).
- Benefit: No major modifications needed — ideal for both weekend warriors and time attack users.
- Compared to: Some AP Racing kits require re-routing or custom bracket solutions.
6. Endurance Racing Proven
- Advantage: Used in Spoon’s long-distance endurance races like Super Taikyu.
- Benefit: Proven under real-world harsh conditions — not just dyno-tested or for show.
- Compared to: Many kits prioritize show or drift use — Spoon is known for JDM circuit excellence.
7. Paired with Spoon-Specific Brake Pads
- Advantage: Comes tuned with pad compound matched to caliper piston dynamics.
- Benefit: Zero squeal, strong bite, and controlled modulation for street and track.
- Compared to: Other brands require trial and error to get ideal pad compound and fitment.
