PowerStop Evolution Drilled & Slotted Rotors (FRONT)

2013–2020 Subaru BRZ, 2017–2020 Toyota 86, 2013–2016 Scion FR-S

Part #: JBR730XPR

Overview

The PowerStop Evolution Drilled & Slotted Rotors offer a direct bolt-on upgrade designed specifically for the front brakes of the Subaru BRZ, Toyota 86, and Scion FR-S models within the specified year ranges. These rotors are engineered to enhance braking performance by improving heat dissipation and maintaining a clean friction surface under demanding driving conditions. Ideal for enthusiasts seeking better brake cooling and consistent stopping power, these rotors deliver reliable performance for both street and spirited driving.

With precision cross-drilled holes and rounded slots, the rotors efficiently manage heat and expel gases, brake dust, and moisture, reducing the risk of brake fade and ensuring a stable braking response. The silver zinc dichromate plating provides excellent corrosion resistance, helping to maintain the rotors’ appearance and longevity over time.

Key Features

PowerStop Evolution Drilled & Slotted Rotors incorporate advanced design elements to optimize braking efficiency and durability. Key features include:

• Precision cross-drilled holes for maximum heat dissipation and improved cooling during extreme braking conditions
• Rounded slots that effectively sweep away gases, dust, and moisture to maintain a clean friction surface
• Silver zinc dichromate plating that resists rust and corrosion, extending rotor life and preserving appearance
• Direct OE fitment ensures easy installation with no modifications required
• Engineered specifically for the front brakes of Subaru BRZ, Toyota 86, and Scion FR-S models for optimal compatibility
• Improved brake performance and reduced fade under aggressive driving or track use
• Enhanced rotor surface that promotes consistent pad contact and braking feel

Construction & Design

These rotors are manufactured from high-quality cast iron, chosen for its excellent thermal conductivity and durability. The cross-drilled holes are precisely machined to maximize airflow and heat dissipation, while the rounded slots are designed to prevent cracking and extend rotor life compared to traditional straight slots. The silver zinc dichromate plating adds a protective layer against environmental elements, reducing the risk of rust and corrosion that can degrade braking performance over time.

The design balances performance and longevity, making these rotors suitable for daily driving as well as more demanding conditions such as track days or spirited mountain runs.

Installation & Fitment

PowerStop Evolution Drilled & Slotted Rotors are engineered for a direct OE replacement fit on the front brakes of the 2013–2020 Subaru BRZ, 2017–2020 Toyota 86, and 2013–2016 Scion FR-S. Installation is straightforward and requires no special modifications or machining. They bolt directly onto the factory hub, allowing for a hassle-free upgrade that maintains factory brake system geometry and performance characteristics.

For best results, it is recommended to replace brake pads simultaneously and to follow proper break-in procedures to ensure optimal rotor and pad performance.

What's Included

• One pair of front drilled and slotted rotors (left and right)
