Power Stop KC8533 Evolution Sport Brake Kit with Drilled Slotted Rotors and Powder Coated Calipers - Z23

The Power Stop KC8533 Z23 Evolution Sport Brake Upgrade Kit is a complete, bolt-on braking solution engineered for daily drivers who demand more than stock performance. This all-inclusive kit bundles Z23 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic brake pads, drilled and slotted zinc-plated rotors, powder coated calipers, and premium stainless-steel hardware — everything needed for a straightforward performance upgrade in a single purchase.

Key Features:

• Z23 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Brake Pads — Proprietary carbon-fiber-infused ceramic compound delivers enhanced stopping power over traditional ceramic pads while resisting brake fade at elevated temperatures
• Low-Dust Formula — Third-party verified low-dust formulation keeps wheels cleaner between washes
• Drilled & Slotted Rotors — Precision drill holes promote maximum rotor cooling, while slots help evacuate gas and debris for consistent, fade-resistant braking; zinc plating provides long-term rust and corrosion resistance
• Dual-Layer Rubberized Shims — Multi-layer shim design acts as a noise insulator for virtually silent braking operation
• Powder Coated Calipers — Assembled and tested in Power Stop's Chicago, IL facility; powder coating provides corrosion protection and a bold, distinctive appearance behind open-spoke wheels
• Complete Hardware Kit — Includes premium stainless-steel hardware and high-temp brake lubricant for a clean, rattle-free installation
• Bolt-On Installation — Designed as a direct-fit replacement requiring no drilling, cutting, or modification
• 24-Month / 24,000-Mile Warranty — Backed by Power Stop's limited warranty against defects in materials and workmanship

After installation, follow Power Stop's recommended break-in procedure: perform 30 decelerations from 30 mph to 5 mph with 30-second cooling intervals between each stop to properly bed the pads and ensure optimal long-term performance.
