Evo Brake Rotor Upgrade

 

What good our rotors that don't improve your braking performance, thats why we got aftermarket brakes. Brembo brake rotors use a two piece design to compensate for the different expansion rates between the hat and disc, which helps eliminate the potential for disc warpage. Brembo disc being a two piece design also means you don't have to purchase the entire kit the next time you wear your brake discs out.  Only Brembo brake rotors provide that convenience. Just purchase new Brembo brake discs and re-install the old hats. This can potentially save you a good bit of money, especially if you drive your Evo hard.

The Brembo brakes are also slotted to constantly refresh the pad face and allow for maximum contact between the pad and disc surface. In contrast, the stock Evo  Brembo disc use pillar vanes, which are not able to pump air as well, leading to a hotter running brake disc.

Brembo brake rotors use high quality materials and components. The Brembo brake rotors are high carbon content iron with zinc plating for added corrosion resistance. The top hats are developed using 6061 T 6 billet aluminum with a gunmetal finish for a performance oriented look.

I only hear very minor pad squeal when I pull out of parking lots or brake lightly at very low speeds 5mph in reverse. This only seems to occur once and is likely due to the use of a floating mount design. When going in reverse, the  brake pads catch the Brembo disc and shift them to the other side.

Overall, the Brembo brake upgrade has been a serious improvement to an area that was in dire need of it. I will definitely be upgrading the stock brake lines to take full advantage of the Brembo brake disc upgrades at future track days.
