The Power Stop KC098 Z23 Evolution Sport Brake Upgrade Kit with Powder Coated Calipers is a complete, bolt-on brake system upgrade engineered for daily-driven cars, trucks, and SUVs. This all-inclusive kit delivers a meaningful improvement in braking performance over factory components without requiring any modifications.
What's Included:
- Z23 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Brake Pads (front and rear)
- Drilled & Slotted Zinc-Plated Rotors
- Red Powder Coated Calipers (professionally assembled, inspected, and pressure tested)
- Premium stainless-steel installation hardware
- High-temperature ceramic brake lubricant
Z23 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Brake Pads use Power Stop's proprietary carbon-fiber-infused ceramic compound, which significantly enhances braking performance compared to traditional ceramic pads. Each pad is thermally scorched during manufacturing to reduce break-in time and deliver immediate, consistent stopping power. Dual-layer high-temp rubberized shims insulate against noise for virtually silent braking, and the low-dust formula—validated through third-party on-vehicle testing—produces on average 30% less brake dust than OEM pads.
Drilled & Slotted Rotors feature precision drill holes and machined slots that channel away heat, gases, and debris for maximum rotor cooling and consistent pedal feel. A zinc plating treatment protects the rotor surface against rust and corrosion, maintaining performance and appearance over the long term.
Powder Coated Calipers are remanufactured, then powder coated and fully assembled at Power Stop's Chicago, IL facility. Each caliper is pressure tested before shipping, ensuring reliable performance right out of the box. The bold red finish provides long-lasting corrosion protection and an aggressive appearance behind open-spoke wheels.
