The Brembo 1M1.8048AR GT-R Big Brake Kit represents the pinnacle of high-performance braking technology, developed from decades of motorsport engineering experience. Designed for enthusiasts who demand exceptional performance both on the street and track, this complete brake system delivers professional racing-grade stopping power with the reliability needed for daily driving.
Premium Monobloc Caliper Construction:
This GT-R system features precision-machined billet calipers that provide superior rigidity and thermal management compared to cast alternatives. The monobloc construction achieves up to 10 percent weight reduction while delivering enhanced thermo-mechanical resistance critical for high-performance applications. Sequentially-sized pistons equipped with stainless steel or titanium inserts create an additional heat barrier, virtually eliminating brake fade during aggressive driving and track sessions.
Advanced Two-Piece Floating Rotor Design:
The included two-piece floating rotors feature a hat-and-rotor assembly that reduces unsprung weight and accelerates heat dissipation. Directionally-vented and slotted rotor surfaces provide optimal cooling and consistent bite, while the floating design minimizes thermal stress and extends component life. This configuration was originally developed by Brembo for the McLaren F1 road car.
Complete System Includes:
- Forged 4, 6, or 8-piston racing calipers with slim profile design
- Two-piece ventilated and slotted brake rotors
- High-performance brake pads available in street or race compounds
- DOT and TÜV certified Goodridge stainless steel brake lines with lifetime guarantee
- Floating anti-rattle hardware developed for McLaren F1
- Precision-machined billet mounting brackets with aircraft-grade hardware
- All necessary installation components for seamless fitment
Premium Corrosion Protection:
The nickel-plated finish provides exceptional corrosion resistance while maintaining an attractive appearance through years of use. The caliper design minimizes brake fluid absorption and delivers a stiffer, more responsive pedal feel with consistent clamping force throughout the full range of braking conditions.
Important Fitment Note:
Proper wheel clearance measurement is critical for successful installation. This system is designed for select high-performance applications including Porsche, Ferrari, BMW, Corvette, and Camaro platforms. Always verify wheel dimensions before installation to ensure proper fitment. Visit this guide for measurement instructions.
