Brakes and Traction Control: Description and Operation
GENERAL DESCRIPTIONTop components such as Brembo(TM) brakes, EBD and sports ABS improve braking power and braking stability.
CAUTION: Take care not to contact the parts or tools to the caliper because the paint of caliper will be scratched.
FEATURES
IMPROVED BRAKING PERFORMANCE
1. A 8 + 9 inch tandem vacuum booster is utilized to provide high braking force with a small pedal depression force.
2. Brembo(TM) 17 inch 4 pot front ventilated disc brakes and Brembo(TM) 16 inch 2 pot rear ventilated disc brakes provide stable braking force and improved braking feel.
IMPROVED STABILITY
1. Sports 4-wheel anti-lock braking system (ABS) is used to prevent slipping caused by the vehicle wheels locking up in order to maintain an appropriate braking distance, and also to maintain a stable vehicle posture and steering performance.
2. Adoption of an electronic brake-force distribution (EBD) makes it possible to maintain the maximum amount of braking force even when the vehicle's load is unevenly distributed
3. Front- and rear-wheel X-type brake line layout is used.
4. Ventilated discs improve anti-fading performance.
IMPROVED SERVICEABILITY
1. A diagnosis function for the ABS system makes inspection easier.
2. An outer disc method separated hub and rotor makes removal and installation easier.
3. The master cylinder reservoir tank cap is colored white to make identification easier.
4. The ABS-ECU and hydraulic unit are integrated to make them more compact and lightweight.
