Power Stop K1680 Z23 Evolution Sport Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Brake Pad & Drilled/Slotted Rotor Kit

The Power Stop K1680 Z23 Evolution Sport Brake Upgrade Kit is a complete, bolt-on braking solution engineered to deliver a meaningful performance upgrade over standard factory brakes for daily-driven cars, trucks, and SUVs. The kit includes everything needed for a straightforward installation — no modifications required.

Z23 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Brake Pads

At the heart of this kit are Power Stop's proprietary Z23 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic brake pads. The carbon-fiber-infused ceramic compound is engineered to increase stopping power over OEM pads while resisting brake fade at elevated temperatures. Each pad is thermally scorched during manufacturing to minimize break-in time and ensure consistent performance from the first stop. A dual-layer rubberized shim design provides a virtually silent braking experience, and the low-dust formula — verified through third-party on-vehicle testing — keeps wheels cleaner compared to conventional metallic pads.

Drilled, Slotted & Zinc-Plated Rotors

The kit's precision-machined rotors are cast from G3000-grade iron and feature beveled cross-drilled holes that dissipate heat and reduce rotor temperatures during heavy braking. Rounded slots continuously wipe the rotor face free of gas, dust, and debris to maintain a consistent contact patch. A Silver Zinc Dichromate plating finish protects the rotor surfaces against rust and corrosion, delivering long-lasting protection and a clean appearance behind open-spoke wheels.
