The Power Stop KC5603 Z23 Evolution Sport Brake Upgrade Kit with Powder Coated Calipers is a complete, bolt-on brake system upgrade engineered for daily drivers who want more stopping power without sacrificing everyday drivability. This all-inclusive kit bundles matched components — pads, rotors, calipers, and premium stainless-steel hardware — so everything works together right out of the box.
Z23 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Brake Pads
Power Stop's proprietary Z23 compound reinforces a low-dust ceramic formula with carbon fiber to significantly enhance braking performance over standard OE pads. Dual-layer rubberized shims insulate against noise for virtually silent stops, while a chamfered and slotted pad design further reduces vibration and noise. Low-dust performance is validated through independent, third-party on-vehicle testing.
Drilled & Slotted Zinc-Plated Rotors
Rotors are cast from G3000 metallurgy to strict OE tolerances for a true bolt-on fit with no modifications required. Precision cross-drilled holes maximize rotor cooling to keep brake temperatures down under hard use, while rounded slots continuously wipe the pad surface clean for consistent contact and smooth braking. Silver Zinc Dichromate plating provides long-lasting protection against rust and corrosion.
Red Powder Coated Calipers
Each caliper is powder coated, assembled, and pressure tested at Power Stop's Chicago, IL facility. The durable powder coating resists rust and corrosion, extends caliper life, and delivers a bold red finish that stands out behind open wheels.
