Brembo › Brake discs

Braking:

Brembo's latest big brake kit with 1-piece rotor comes with powerful 4 piston calipers, carriers, stainless braided brake lines, option of race or street pads, and 13" Brembo race rotors! Calipers colors are available in black, red or silver. These rotors have directional veins and are either available in cross-drilled or slotted options. The 13" 1-piece rotor can absorb and dissipate much more heat without warping than most 2-piece rotors. Using Goodridge DOT approved brake lines for solid pedal feel you have your choice of pads for street, autocross, or race at no extra charge. Believe it or not the Brembo 1-piece kit is still lighter than the factory brakes!

Pros: lighter than factory brakes, solid pedal feel

The porsche 911 GT3 comes with cross drilled vented rotors, and thats good enough for me. Its not that I think they're better than slotted, these are the first of either cross drilled or slotted rotors that I've used, and I think they work great, and I haven't experienced any problems with them, thats alllllll I'm saying.

Pros: work great, no problems

Vehicle: Porsche 911

I got zimmermans and redbox pads. I took the car to a road course event about a month after everything was installed. No problems at all. Everything worked well and there are no visible cracks, even after extreme usage.

Pros: everything worked well

Cons: no problems

ATE powerslots are plated, they dont really rust. the braking surface will eventually, when the plating wears, but the reas of it lasts a long time. I like mine.

I ran EBC sport rotors (slotted/dimpled) for about 8k before upgrading to DEs. With their greenstuff pads, they stop very well.

Pros: stop very well

Cons: pads create a lot of dust

Mileage: 8000 km

I have no complaints about my X-drilled Zimmerman's on the rear of my C. They work great, but I noticed that they do rust fairly quickly if the car hasn't been driven a lot.

Pros: work great

Cons: rust fairly quickly
