The Power Stop CPK8478-23 Z23 Evolution Sport Brake Kit with Powder Coated Calipers is a complete brake upgrade solution delivering improved stopping power, reduced dust, and long-lasting corrosion resistance. This all-inclusive kit includes Z23 carbon-fiber ceramic brake pads, drilled and slotted zinc-plated rotors, powder coated calipers, and premium stainless-steel hardware — everything needed for a straightforward bolt-on installation.
Z23 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Brake Pads use a proprietary compound that significantly improves braking performance over standard ceramic pads. Each pad is thermally scorched during production to reduce break-in time and deliver strong, consistent performance from the first stop. Dual-layer rubberized shims insulate against noise for virtually silent braking, while a low-dust formulation — validated through third-party on-vehicle testing — keeps wheels looking clean.
Drilled, Slotted & Zinc Plated Rotors feature precision beveled drill holes that help dissipate heat and reduce rotor temperatures by up to 180°F during aggressive braking. The rounded rotor slots sweep away gas, debris, and moisture to maintain a clean contact patch and ensure consistent, reliable braking. Silver zinc dichromate plating protects against rust and corrosion throughout the rotor's service life.
Powder Coated Calipers are fully remanufactured, assembled, and tested to meet rigorous safety and performance standards. An electrostatic high-heat powder coat finish provides long-lasting protection against rust and corrosion while delivering a sharp, distinctive look behind open wheels.
