Confidential braking development. Built without limits.

Skunkworks is the pinnacle of Oblivion’s engineering capability — a dedicated division for ultra-specialist braking projects where convention ends and innovation begins.

This is where we solve the problems no one else will touch. Where packaging constraints, extreme performance demands, or unconventional vehicle concepts render off-the-shelf systems useless. Skunkworks offers a ground-up, clean-sheet development service for one-off builds, ultra-limited runs, and engineering teams pushing the boundaries of what’s possible.

Every Skunkworks engagement begins with intent. We work closely with your core team to understand the mission — be it a radical concept, track-only weapon, or an uncompromising road car designed to operate at the edge. From there, we develop fully bespoke braking systems that align with your architecture, targets, and vision.

There are no templates. No recycled thinking. Where required, components such as calipers, brackets, rotors and pad shapes can be designed from scratch — specifically for your application, your packaging constraints, and your performance targets. Thermal behaviour, structural stiffness, unsprung mass, pedal response — all optimised using advanced simulation, structural analysis, and iterative prototyping.

Whether your focus is performance, packaging, visual identity, or all three — Skunkworks delivers with total technical ownership and full discretion.

Skunkworks exists to serve those building something different — something bold, intelligent, and outside the norm.

When performance has no benchmark and compromise is off the table, we build what no one else will.
