The Power Stop KC849 Z23 Evolution Sport Brake Upgrade Kit with Powder Coated Calipers is a complete, bolt-on braking solution engineered to deliver a measurable performance improvement over stock OE brakes for daily-driven cars, trucks, and SUVs. Everything needed for a straightforward upgrade is included in a single box — no modifications required.
What's Included:
- Front and rear drilled & slotted, zinc-plated brake rotors
- Front and rear Z23 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic brake pad sets with hardware
- Red powder coated brake calipers (assembled and tested)
- Premium stainless-steel installation hardware
- High-performance brake lubricant
Z23 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Brake Pads
Power Stop's proprietary carbon-fiber ceramic compound is engineered to outperform traditional ceramic pads with stronger stopping power, reduced brake fade, and significantly less dust. Pads are thermally scorched during manufacturing to accelerate break-in and eliminate transfer film residue from production. Dual-layer rubberized shims insulate against vibration for virtually silent braking. Low-dust performance is validated through third-party on-vehicle testing.
Drilled & Slotted Zinc-Plated Rotors
Rotors are cast from G3000 metallurgy to strict OE tolerances for a perfect bolt-on fit. Precision drill holes maximize rotor cooling to keep brake temperatures in check under demanding conditions. Rounded slots continuously wipe the rotor surface clear of gas and debris for consistent, smooth braking. Silver zinc dichromate plating protects against rust and corrosion and provides a clean appearance behind open wheels.
Powder Coated Calipers
All calipers are powder coated, assembled, and tested at Power Stop's facility in Chicago, IL. The durable powder coat finish resists rust and corrosion while delivering a bold, eye-catching look behind open-spoke wheels.
