Power Stop KC5581 Evolution Sport Drilled Slotted Brake Kit with Powder Coated Calipers - Z23

The Power Stop KC5581 Z23 Evolution Sport Brake Upgrade Kit with Powder Coated Calipers is a complete, bolt-on brake system upgrade engineered for daily-driven cars, trucks, and SUVs. This all-in-one kit includes everything needed for a straightforward installation: front and rear drilled and slotted rotors, Z23 carbon-fiber ceramic brake pads with hardware, and powder coated calipers.

Z23 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Brake Pads

Power Stop's proprietary Z23 carbon-fiber ceramic compound delivers a significant improvement in braking performance over traditional OEM ceramic pads. The iron-free, carbon-fiber-infused formula is thermally scorched during manufacturing to eliminate surface contaminants and reduce break-in time. Dual-layer rubberized shims provide excellent noise insulation for virtually silent stopping, while the low-dust formulation — verified through third-party on-vehicle testing — keeps wheels cleaner than stock pads.

Drilled, Slotted & Zinc Plated Rotors

The precision cross-drilled holes allow maximum rotor cooling, keeping brake temperatures in check during demanding use. Rounded slots sweep away water, gas, and debris to maintain a clean contact patch between pad and rotor. Rotors are cast from G3000 metallurgy to strict OE tolerances, ensuring a true bolt-on fit with no modifications required. The zinc plating provides long-lasting protection against rust and corrosion.

Powder Coated Calipers

All calipers are powder coated, assembled, and tested for a high-quality finish that resists corrosion and makes a bold visual statement behind open wheels. The easy-to-clean coating extends caliper service life well beyond that of uncoated alternatives.
