The Power Stop KC2004 Z23 Evolution Sport Brake Upgrade Kit is a complete, bolt-on brake system upgrade engineered for daily-driven cars, trucks, and SUVs. This front kit includes everything needed for a straightforward installation: matched drilled and slotted rotors, Z23 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic brake pads, red powder coated calipers, premium stainless-steel hardware, and high-temperature brake lubricant — no modifications required.
Z23 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Brake Pads
Power Stop's proprietary Z23 compound reinforces the low-dust ceramic formula with carbon fiber to strengthen the pad material and enhance heat dissipation versus a standard ceramic pad. Low-dust performance is validated through third-party on-vehicle testing, averaging 30% less dust than OE. Dual-layer high-temp rubberized shims insulate for virtually silent, noise-free braking.
Drilled & Slotted Zinc-Plated Rotors
Rotors are cast from G3000 iron with strict OE tolerances for a true bolt-on fit. Precision drill holes maximize rotor cooling to keep brake temperatures down during demanding conditions. Rounded slots wipe away gas and debris to maintain a clear contact patch on the rotor surface. Silver Zinc Dichromate plating provides long-lasting protection against rust and corrosion.
Red Powder Coated Calipers
All calipers are professionally assembled, inspected, and pressure tested at Power Stop's Chicago, IL facility. The red powder coat finish resists rust and corrosion to extend caliper life and delivers a sharp, performance look behind open wheels.
