Power Stop KC5961 Evolution Sport Drilled Slotted Brake Kit with Powder Coated Calipers - Z23

The Power Stop KC5961 Z23 Evolution Sport Brake Upgrade Kit with Powder Coated Calipers is a complete, bolt-on rear brake system upgrade engineered for daily drivers who demand more from their stopping power. This all-inclusive kit bundles everything needed for a straightforward installation: drilled and slotted rotors, Z23 carbon-fiber ceramic brake pads, powder coated calipers, and premium stainless-steel hardware.

Z23 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Brake Pads

Power Stop's proprietary Z23 compound infuses carbon-fiber into a low-dust ceramic formula, delivering a measurable increase in braking performance over stock OEM pads — without sacrificing everyday drivability. Each pad features a dual-layer rubberized shim for virtually silent operation and a chamfered, slotted edge design to further reduce noise and vibration. The low-dust formulation is verified through third-party on-vehicle testing, keeping your wheels cleaner between washes.

Drilled & Slotted Zinc-Plated Rotors

The cross-drilled and slotted rotors are cast from G3000-grade iron to strict OE tolerances and finished with a silver zinc dichromate plating that provides long-lasting protection against rust and corrosion. Precision drill holes allow for maximum rotor cooling during demanding stops, while the rounded slots continuously sweep away water, gas, and brake dust to maintain a clean contact patch between pad and rotor.

Red Powder Coated Calipers

The included calipers are coated with a high-temp red powder coat finish, assembled, and pressure tested at Power Stop's Chicago, IL facility. The powder coating resists rust and corrosion to extend caliper life, while the bold red finish adds a distinctive performance look visible behind open-spoke wheels.
