The Power Stop K8390 Z23 Evolution Sport Brake Kit is a complete, bolt-on upgrade solution engineered for daily drivers who demand more than stock braking performance. This all-inclusive kit bundles Z23 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic brake pads, drilled and slotted zinc-plated rotors, and premium stainless-steel hardware — everything needed for a straightforward brake job with no additional parts to source.
Z23 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Brake Pads
Power Stop's proprietary Z23 compound infuses carbon-fiber into a low-dust ceramic formula to deliver increased stopping power without sacrificing the comfort and civility required for everyday driving. The pads are thermally scorched during manufacturing, which burns off surface contaminants and shortens the break-in period. Dual-layer rubberized shims act as noise insulators for virtually silent braking, while positive mold technology ensures consistent friction material density for even, predictable wear. A powder-coated backing plate resists rust and corrosion throughout the life of the pad. Power Stop's low-dust formulation is verified through third-party on-vehicle testing, so you can say goodbye to the brake dust buildup that plagues factory pads.
Drilled & Slotted Zinc-Plated Rotors
The matched rotors feature precision cross-drilled holes and machined slots that work together to evacuate heat, gases, and debris from the braking surface. This keeps operating temperatures in check under demanding conditions and ensures a consistently firm, fade-resistant pedal. A zinc plating treatment provides long-lasting protection from rust and corrosion, maintaining a clean appearance behind open-spoke wheels.
