Honda Elysion Big Brake Kit Upgrade / TTSPORT Classic 8657
The Honda Elysion is a mid-to-large MPV with a comfortable ride and smooth styling, but its curb weight works against it under braking. Owners of the 2.4L i-VTEC version have reported the stock brakes feeling short on stopping power once the vehicle is loaded up and moving at speed. For a vehicle this heavy, the fix isn't a bigger engine — it's a brake system that can actually shed the vehicle's kinetic energy consistently. This owner went with the TTSPORT TT8657 forged six-piston big brake kit.

Why It Works
A forged caliper body holds its shape under load better than a cast one, which means less flex at the pads and a firmer, more predictable pedal. The TT8657 uses three different piston sizes arranged opposite each other, which spreads clamping force more evenly across the pad and makes the brake response feel more linear rather than grabby at one end of the pedal travel.
- Slotted 380mm x 34mm rotor adds mass and surface area for better heat capacity and gas/dust venting, which matters on a heavy MPV that generates more heat per stop.
- Stainless steel lines resist expansion under pressure, keeping pedal feel consistent instead of spongy.
- Confirmed to clear the Elysion's 19-inch wheels once installed.

Results
After the swap, the owner reported a noticeably firmer pedal and stronger control feel, with braking distances shortening compared to the stock setup — a meaningful improvement in day-to-day driving safety margin for a vehicle this size.
