Stoptech Rotor (REAR)
2013–2016 Subaru BRZ
127.47029R
Overview:
The StopTech Drilled and Slotted Sport Rotor is a high-performance, direct replacement rear brake rotor designed specifically for the 2013 to 2016 Subaru BRZ. Engineered to enhance braking efficiency and reliability, this rotor is ideal for enthusiasts seeking improved stopping power without modifying their factory brake system or calipers. Its aggressive drilled and slotted design not only elevates the visual appeal behind your wheels but also significantly improves heat dissipation and brake dust removal, resulting in consistent braking performance under demanding conditions.
Whether you drive on the street or occasionally push your BRZ on the track, these rotors provide a noticeable upgrade in brake response and durability, making them an excellent choice for drivers who value both performance and longevity.
Key Features:
StopTech’s rear drilled and slotted rotors incorporate advanced design elements to maximize braking performance and reliability:
- Drilled holes and precision slots improve heat and brake dust dispersal to reduce fade and maintain pad bite
- Black e-coating protects against corrosion, extending rotor life and maintaining a clean appearance
- High carbon metallurgy enhances crack resistance and reduces noise for quieter operation
- Optimized for use with higher friction, European-style brake pad compounds for superior stopping power
- Added molybdenum and chromium in the rotor alloy improve durability and resistance to cracking
- One-piece direct replacement design ensures easy installation with factory brake systems and stock calipers
- Improved wet and dry braking performance thanks to the combined effect of drilling and slotting
Construction & Design:
These StopTech rotors are crafted from premium high carbon cast iron, which offers enhanced thermal conductivity and structural integrity compared to standard rotors. The black e-coating not only provides excellent corrosion resistance but also helps maintain a fresh, clean look over time. The drilled holes and slots are strategically placed to optimize heat dissipation and prevent pad glazing, which can degrade braking performance. The inclusion of molybdenum and chromium in the metallurgy further strengthens the rotor, reducing the risk of cracking under extreme thermal stress.
The one-piece rotor design ensures compatibility with the Subaru BRZ’s factory brake calipers, allowing for a straightforward bolt-on upgrade without the need for additional modifications.
Performance & Sound
StopTech’s advanced metallurgy and rotor design significantly reduce brake pad squeal, especially when paired with high-performance European-style brake pads. The drilled and slotted surface increases initial bite and improves braking consistency in both wet and dry conditions. Drivers will experience enhanced pedal feel and confidence during spirited driving or track use, with reduced fade and improved heat management contributing to sustained performance.
Installation & Fitment:
Designed as a direct replacement for the rear rotors on the 2013–2016 Subaru BRZ, these StopTech rotors install easily using factory mounting points and hardware. No modifications to the brake system or calipers are necessary, making installation straightforward for professional mechanics or experienced enthusiasts. It is recommended to inspect brake pads and hardware during installation to ensure optimal performance and safety.
What's Included:
- One StopTech Drilled and Slotted Rear Rotor (driver or passenger side as specified)
- Protective black e-coating finish
- Installation instructions (where applicable)
Ideal For:
This rotor is ideal for Subaru BRZ owners who want to upgrade their braking system for improved performance and aesthetics without changing their factory calipers. It suits daily drivers seeking enhanced safety and longevity, as well as enthusiasts who occasionally track their vehicle or enjoy spirited driving. The rotor’s design benefits those using higher friction brake pads and looking to reduce brake fade and noise.
