Construction & Design:
The Z23 Evolution Sport Brake Kit features rotors crafted from premium cast iron with a zinc plating finish to resist rust and corrosion, ensuring long-term durability and consistent performance. The rotors are drilled and slotted to promote rapid heat dissipation and prevent brake fade during aggressive braking or extended use.
The Carbon-Fiber Ceramic brake pads utilize a proprietary Z23 compound that blends carbon fiber with ceramic materials, delivering enhanced friction characteristics and a low-dust formula. This combination reduces brake dust buildup by approximately 30% compared to original equipment pads, keeping your wheels cleaner and maintaining a fresh appearance.
Included stainless-steel hardware is precision-engineered to resist corrosion and maintain secure pad retention, while multi-layer rubberized shims help eliminate unwanted noise, providing a refined braking feel.
Performance & Sound
The Z23 compound brake pads offer a significant improvement in braking response and power over standard ceramic pads, making them well-suited for spirited driving as well as everyday use. The drilled and slotted rotors enhance cooling efficiency, reducing the risk of brake fade during repeated stops or downhill driving.
Thanks to the multi-layer shims and high-temperature ceramic lubricant, this brake kit delivers virtually noise-free operation, eliminating common squeals and vibrations associated with lesser-quality brake components.
