The Power Stop KC5926 Z23 Evolution Sport Brake Upgrade Kit is a complete, bolt-on brake system upgrade designed for daily-driven cars, trucks, and SUVs. This all-inclusive kit bundles Carbon-Fiber Ceramic brake pads, drilled and slotted zinc-plated rotors, powder-coated remanufactured calipers, premium stainless-steel installation hardware, and high-temperature ceramic brake lubricant — everything needed for a straightforward, no-modification upgrade over factory brakes.
Z23 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Brake Pads
Power Stop's proprietary Z23 carbon-fiber-infused ceramic compound delivers significantly enhanced stopping power compared to traditional ceramic pads. Each pad is thermally scorched at up to 700°C during production to burn off any surface contaminants, shortening the break-in period and ensuring consistent performance from the first stop. Dual-layer rubberized shims insulate against vibration and noise for virtually silent braking. Low-dust performance is validated through third-party on-vehicle testing, averaging 30% less dust than OE pads.
Drilled, Slotted & Zinc-Plated Rotors
The cross-drilled and slotted G3000 iron rotors are engineered for maximum thermal management. Chamfered drill holes dissipate heat and reduce rotor temperatures during hard braking, while the precision slots sweep away dust, gas, and debris to maintain a clean, consistent contact patch. A silver zinc-plated finish provides long-lasting protection against rust and corrosion.
Powder-Coated Remanufactured Calipers
All included calipers are professionally assembled, pressure-tested, and finished with an electrostatic high-heat powder coat at Power Stop's Chicago, IL facility. The powder coat adds a bold look behind open wheels while providing durable protection against corrosion.
