The Power Stop KC1614A Z23 Evolution Sport Brake Upgrade Kit is a complete, bolt-on braking system designed to deliver a meaningful performance step up over factory brakes for everyday cars, trucks, and SUVs. This all-inclusive kit bundles 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 upgrade without hunting for individual components.
Z23 Carbon-Fiber Ceramic Brake Pads
At the heart of this kit are Power Stop's Z23 compound pads, engineered with a carbon-fiber-infused, low-dust ceramic formula. This formulation delivers increased stopping power compared to standard OEM ceramic pads while keeping wheels cleaner and virtually eliminating brake dust. Dual-layer rubberized shims insulate against noise for near-silent, fade-free braking in everyday driving conditions.
Drilled & Slotted Zinc-Plated Rotors
The cross-drilled holes promote maximum rotor cooling by venting heat and gases away from the braking surface, while the machined slots help sweep away debris and maintain consistent pad contact. A zinc dichromate coating guards against rust and corrosion, helping the rotors maintain their appearance and performance over time.
Powder Coated Performance Calipers
The included remanufactured calipers are powder coated, assembled, and tested for long-lasting corrosion protection and a bold appearance behind open-spoke wheels. The red powder coat finish adds a distinctive visual upgrade that stands out.
