Testing the waters to see if anyone would be interested in 2 piece rear rotors from SakeBomb Garage that would match the front 2 piece rotors that they offer? They do not currently offer a rear rotor option, but if we can get at least 5-10 buyers, they will put these into production. Would anyone be interested in a Group Buy? Below is their original post.

Sakebomb Garage is proud to present the first up-sized OE replacement rotor rings for the Honda Civic Type-R FK8.

Tired of warping stock discs on the track? Want to shed weight and dramatically increase cooling? These rotors are 2mm thicker than stock rotors, lighter than OEM, directional curved vane (which acts as an air pump to actively cool the disc), and fit perfectly in the stock front Brembos. We've listened to the community and understand with the amount of track days these cars can handle, the brake rotors become a weak point in an otherwise fantastically sorted chassis. We've taken the knowledge and R&D from our successful BBK's in the past on other platforms and wanted to bring that to the Type-R community!
HONDA CIVIC TYPE-R 2PC ROTORS (350X34 +2MM OVER STOCK)


SBG Premium Brake Rotors:

  • Competition Inspired 350mm x 34mm Rotor Design (+2mm width vs stock)
  • High-Performance, Light-Weight Solid Mount Rotors
  • Rotors feature 32 Curved Directional Vanes, with 15mm Air Gap
  • Proprietary High Temperature Alloy
  • Slot Pattern engineered to increase pad bite
  • Race Grade 2024 T351 Hard Anodized Aluminum Rotor Hat
The directional vanes (as opposed to straight vane OEM rotors) act as an air pump to pull cold air from the center of the rotor and expel hot air at the rotors edge. Directional curved vanes literally expel heat and therefore run cooler than straight vane designs given the same rotor mass. The rotors in this kit were designed for efficiency and weight reduction to drastically raise the bar for braking capacity while avoiding the detriments of unsprung weight on handling.

*Brake pads for this caliper are readily available from nearly every pad manufacturer. As pad choice varies greatly depending on personal preference, application, and desired cost, we decided not to include pads to reduce the total cost as one pad obviously does not fit all. To see a list of commonly used pads please visit the following Link. We are able to source many other pads such as Performance Friction and Endless. We will be stocking various Endless pad compounds in the near future.

Damn.. bringing this thread back from the dead. Because there were no takers I ended up going with Paragon.

https://paragonbrakes.com

Haven't installed them yet, but quality seems top notch.

That being said, if people are still interested in this group buy I can reach out the Sakebomb and see if they are still willing to work with us on this.

Do tell...
A few of us have had issues with their brake rotors. We brought the issue to their attention and they did nothing to fix the issue. The brake rotors caused serious vibrations where the car was completely undriveable. The others that didn’t have vibrations had brake cooling issues.

Dang do we have a “bad parts/vendor” list here? I’d hate to have bought one of these if the info was known.
