Press Release PR-159


FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:


Camarillo, CA &bull May, 2013

Wilwood Disc Brakes is pleased to announce a new direct bolt-on DynaPro Honda/Acura Caliper (DPHA) for Honda and Acura models originally equipped with 262mm diameter rotors. These calipers bolt directly to the stock mounts on factory spindles, fit over the OE 262mm diameter rotor, accept the OE brake hose, and clear many factory aluminum wheels including the EM1 Si 15” wheel.*

Designed around Wilwood’s proven DynaPro series four piston calipers, the forged billet bodied DPHA caliper delivers high-strength clamping force and positive stopping power. Four stainless steel pistons provide fully balanced pad loading, along with the corrosion resistance and thermal retardant qualities of the stainless alloy that will keep your calipers cooler and running trouble free for many more miles. Calipers work perfectly with the OE master cylinder and ABS functions, and are available with either black (P/N 120-12949-BK) or red (P/N 120-12949-RD) high-gloss, high-temp, brake fluid resistant sealed powder coat and feature Wilwood’s signature logo.

DPHA calipers are available individually, in kits with a pair of calipers and a set of brake pads, or in a complete front kit that includes calipers, brake pads and OE replacement 262mm rotors in either our ULHP or SRP treatment. ULHP plainface rotors are cast from premium grade, long grain carbon iron, and provide high performance and rugged durability for a wide range of competition, performance, and sport driving applications. SRP performance rotors add Wilwood’s signature directional drill and slot design with a protective black e-coat finish. The drill and slot pattern adds hi-tech styling with the venting qualities that preserve pad performance. The heat resistant e-coat finish protects the rotors from rust on all areas that are not swept clean by the brake pads.

Friction will be provided by BP-10 compound Wilwood “Smart Pads”. BP-10 is a unique metallic composite formula that provides quiet engagement and low dusting, but with the added temperature range and higher friction values of a semimetallic compound pad. BP-10 runs clean and quiet on the street, with improved stopping power and fade-resistance for those fun days at the track.

Wilwood performance aftermarket brake components are loaded with the features and technology built from decades of domination in world motorsports, and the proven reliability of Zero PPM defect quality supply to leading OE manufacturers around the world. These components will not only optimize the braking performance, it will deliver mile after mile of reliable performance and service life on your Honda/Acura.
