The EBC Apollo Series Balanced Big Brake Kit is a complete, professionally engineered braking system upgrade built on a fundamental principle: Balanced is Better™. While conventional big brake kits address only a single axle, every EBC Balanced Big Brake Kit is a full-vehicle solution — delivering optimized brake bias, maximum stopping power, and a firm, consistent pedal feel from front to rear.
Apollo Series Multi-Piston Calipers:
At the heart of every kit are EBC's Apollo Series multi-piston calipers, machined from heat-treated low-pressure castings — a significantly more refined manufacturing process than conventional gravity casting. The result is superior dimensional consistency, higher overall strength, and a caliper body stiffness comparable to forging. A two-piece bolted design reinforced with high-tensile 12.9 grade steel bridge bolts is FEA-optimized to minimize flex under hard braking and deliver a firmer, more responsive pedal feel. Hard-anodized aluminum pistons feature serrated/castellated noses that limit heat transfer into the braking hydraulics, while full boot-type dust seals provide maximum protection against road grime and debris. Every caliper is individually porosity-checked and pressure tested before leaving the factory.
High-Temperature Caliper Finish:
Apollo Series calipers are finished using EBC's proprietary high-temperature Teflon™ polyester coating — the same advanced system used in the premium cookware industry. Unlike standard powder-coat finishes that can crack and discolor under heat, this durable coating resists fade from both high temperatures and UV radiation, keeping calipers looking sharp through years of hard use. Calipers are available in multiple color options.
Fully Floating Two-Piece Rotors:
Every kit includes fully floating two-piece rotors as standard — something many competing kits charge a premium for or omit entirely. Friction rings are cast from high-carbon G3500 alloy for outstanding thermal capacity and wear resistance. Directional internal curved vanes promote efficient rotor cooling, while stainless steel drive bobbins allow the outer ring to float freely, preventing disc cracking and minimizing thermal distortion under demanding driving conditions.
What's Included — A Truly Complete Upgrade:
- Apollo Series multi-piston calipers — FEA-optimized, low-pressure cast aluminum, individually porosity-checked and pressure tested
- Fully floating two-piece rotors — High-carbon G3500 friction rings with directional curved vanes and stainless steel drive bobbins
- High-performance brake pads — Front and rear axle pads included; pad compound varies by kit variant
- Braided stainless steel brake lines — Front and rear; DOT/ISO/TÜV approved, 100% pressure tested, backed by a lifetime warranty
- All necessary installation hardware — Vehicle-specific installation guide and race-spec brake fluid for final system bleed
100% British Designed, Manufactured & Assembled:
Apollo Series calipers are cast, machined, painted, and assembled entirely in the UK to EBC's exacting quality standards. Every metal fitting, hydraulic component, and brake disc drive bobbin is manufactured from stainless steel for lasting corrosion resistance — a direct expression of EBC's commitment to delivering world-class British engineering at a competitive price point.
Whether you're pushing hard on canyon roads or logging laps at your local circuit, the EBC Apollo Series Balanced Big Brake Kit delivers a fully optimized, race-proven braking upgrade. Select the correct variant for your application from the available options.
