The Brembo GT-R Big Brake Kit represents the pinnacle of high-performance braking technology, engineered using knowledge accumulated from years of racing brake development. This premium brake system is designed for drivers who demand exceptional performance both on the street and track, offering superior stopping power and fade resistance under extreme conditions.
Advanced Caliper Design:
The GT-R system features either 4, 6, or 8-piston monobloc calipers machined entirely from billet aluminum, providing significant advantages over traditional cast calipers. These racing-derived calipers deliver increased stiffness for better pedal feel, reduced weight (up to 10 percent lighter than cast versions), and superior thermo-mechanical resistance critical for high-performance applications. The calipers utilize sequentially sized pistons for balanced brake force distribution and feature a sleeker, more compact profile than standard Brembo GT calipers.
Heat Management Technology:
Select GT-R calipers incorporate ventilated titanium piston inserts that create an additional heat barrier, virtually eliminating brake fade even during maximum-limit and track driving. The nickel-plated finish provides enhanced corrosion resistance while delivering an attractive, professional appearance. This advanced heat management reduces brake fluid absorption and ensures consistent clamping force during aggressive driving.
Two-Piece Floating Rotor System:
The kit includes Brembo's innovative two-piece floating hat and rotor assemblies that reduce unsprung weight and dissipate heat more efficiently than one-piece designs. The directionally vented and slotted rotors are optimized for maximum cooling and consistent performance. The floating rotor hardware, originally developed by Brembo for the McLaren F1 road car, features anti-rattle technology for quiet operation.
Complete System Includes:
- Brembo forged 4, 6, or 8-piston racing calipers with sequentially sized pistons (configuration varies by application)
- Two-piece slotted floating rotors with directional venting
- High-performance brake pads (up to 4 per caliper) available in street or race compounds
- DOT and TUV certified Goodridge stainless steel brake lines with lifetime guarantee
- Brembo billet mounting brackets with aircraft-quality hardware
- Complete installation hardware including anti-rattle rotor components
The Brembo GT-R brake system is engineered to fit select high-performance applications including Porsche, Ferrari, BMW, Corvette, and Camaro models. Professional installation is recommended, and proper wheel clearance measurement is essential for fitment verification.
