The Power Stop KC1796 Z23 Evolution Sport Brake Upgrade Kit with Powder Coated Calipers is a complete, bolt-on braking solution engineered for daily-driven cars, trucks, and SUVs. This all-inclusive kit delivers a meaningful performance upgrade over factory brakes, bundling Carbon-Fiber Ceramic brake pads, Drilled & Slotted zinc-plated rotors, powder coated calipers, and premium stainless-steel hardware — everything needed for a straightforward installation with no modifications required.
Z23 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Brake Pads
At the heart of this kit are Power Stop's Z23 Evolution Sport pads, built with a carbon-fiber-infused ceramic compound that significantly enhances stopping power compared to traditional ceramic or OEM metallic pads. The low-dust formula — verified through third-party on-vehicle testing — keeps wheels cleaner between washes. Dual-layer rubberized shims dampen vibration and noise for virtually silent braking, while the chamfered and slotted pad design further reduces squeal under cold or hot operating conditions.
Drilled, Slotted & Zinc Plated Rotors
Precision cross-drill holes and machined slots work together to evacuate heat, gases, and debris from the rotor surface, keeping brake temperatures down during demanding use. The zinc plating provides long-lasting protection against rust and corrosion, maintaining a clean appearance behind open-spoke wheels.
Powder Coated Calipers
All calipers included in this kit are powder coated for superior corrosion resistance and a finished, show-quality appearance that stands out behind your wheels. Each caliper is assembled and tested for reliable, consistent performance right out of the box.
