The Power Stop KC5869 Z23 Evolution Sport Brake Upgrade Kit with Powder Coated Calipers is a complete, bolt-on braking solution engineered to deliver a meaningful performance upgrade over stock brakes for daily-driven cars, trucks, and SUVs. Everything needed for a professional-quality brake job is included right out of the box — no hunting for individual components required.
What's Included:
- Front and rear Z23 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic brake pads with premium stainless-steel hardware and high-performance brake grease
- Front and rear drilled and slotted zinc-plated rotors
- Front and rear powder coated brake calipers — assembled and tested in Chicago, IL
Z23 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Brake Pads
Power Stop's Z23 compound blends carbon-fiber reinforcement with a low-dust ceramic formula to significantly enhance braking performance over traditional ceramic pads. The pads are thermally scorched during production — a process that burns off surface contaminants and shortens break-in time. Dual-layer rubberized shims insulate against noise for virtually silent braking, and the chamfered, slotted pad design further eliminates squeal and vibration.
Drilled & Slotted Rotors
Precision drill holes and surface slots work together to evacuate heat, gases, and brake dust from the pad-to-rotor contact zone, keeping brake temperatures down during demanding driving conditions. A zinc plating treatment protects the rotor surface against rust and corrosion, preserving both performance and appearance behind open-spoke wheels.
Powder Coated Calipers
The included calipers feature a durable powder coat finish that resists corrosion and provides a striking visual accent visible through the wheel. Each caliper is fully assembled and pressure-tested before shipping, ensuring reliable, leak-free performance right out of the box.
