The Power Stop KC8273 Z23 Evolution Sport Brake Upgrade Kit with Powder Coated Calipers is a complete, bolt-on brake system upgrade engineered to deliver meaningful performance improvements over stock OE brakes. This all-inclusive kit bundles perfectly matched Z23 carbon-fiber ceramic brake pads, drilled and slotted rotors, powder coated calipers, and premium stainless-steel hardware — everything required for a straightforward installation with no modifications necessary.
What's Included:
- Z23 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Brake Pads with stainless-steel hardware
- Drilled & Slotted Zinc Plated Rotors (front and/or rear, as applicable)
- Powder Coated Calipers (assembled and pressure tested)
- Premium stainless-steel installation hardware
- High-performance ceramic brake lubricant
Z23 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Brake Pads: Power Stop's proprietary Z23 compound infuses a low-dust ceramic formula with carbon fiber to significantly enhance stopping power over traditional ceramic pads. Dual-layer rubberized shims provide a noise-dampening barrier for virtually silent braking. The third-party verified low-dust formulation helps keep wheels clean and looking great.
Drilled & Slotted Rotors: Cast from G3000 metallurgy to strict OE tolerances, these rotors are precision drilled to vent heat and prevent brake fade during demanding driving conditions. The rounded slots continuously wipe the rotor surface clean for consistent pad contact, while a Silver Zinc Dichromate plating guards against rust and corrosion for lasting protection.
Powder Coated Calipers: Each caliper is powder coated, assembled, and pressure tested at Power Stop's Chicago, IL facility. The corrosion-resistant powder coating extends caliper service life and delivers a bold, eye-catching appearance behind open wheels.
