The Power Stop KC5749 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-inclusive 1-Click kit includes drilled and slotted rotors, Z23 carbon-fiber ceramic brake pads, powder coated calipers, and premium stainless-steel installation hardware — everything needed for a straightforward upgrade over stock brakes.
Z23 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Brake Pads
The Z23 pad compound combines carbon-fiber reinforcement with a ceramic formula to deliver increased stopping power without sacrificing everyday drivability. The low-dust formulation is validated through third-party, on-vehicle testing, helping keep wheels cleaner longer. Dual-layer rubberized shims insulate against noise for virtually silent braking, and each pad undergoes a thermal scorching process to burn off residual manufacturing gases, resulting in a shorter break-in period and more consistent performance from the start.
Drilled, Slotted & Zinc-Plated Rotors
The cross-drilled holes allow maximum rotor cooling by venting hot air and braking gases, while the precision-machined slots continuously sweep brake dust, water, and debris away from the rotor face for consistent pad contact and bite. Zinc plating provides long-lasting protection against rust and corrosion without diminishing braking performance.
Powder Coated Calipers
The included calipers feature an electrostatic red powder coating for corrosion resistance and a bold appearance behind open wheels. Each caliper is professionally assembled, inspected, and pressure-tested at Power Stop's Chicago, IL facility, and comes equipped with new bleeder screws, hardware, and pins.
