Advantages Over OEM Brake System

Our CP8350 Competition Brake Kit offers our customers the following advantages over the OEM brake system:

• Approximately 20 lbs. of unsprung weight reduction from the nose of a base car, or 18lbs from a Z06.

• AP Racing calipers are the stiffest, lightest, and most technologically advanced calipers available at any price

• CP8350 calipers use a 20mm thick, commonly available brake pad shape

• Stainless steel pistons keep heat out of the brake fluid and provide an ultra-firm pedal

• Mitigation of pad knockback via anti-knockback springs behind the caliper pistons

• Anodized caliper finish that is resistant to wear and deterioration at elevated temperatures

• Stainless steel caliper hardware for a long caliper service life under frequent pad change conditions

• High temperature, low drag seals that will hold up to track temps= less rebuilding and longer service life

• No dust boots to burn up

• Simple pad change with one bolt, no caliper removal required

• Lifetime professional caliper rebuilding support by Essex (at a fee)- pull off your calipers, send them to us, we clean, inspect, and rebuild them

• Championship winning, 70 vane, fully floating, AP Racing J Hook racing discs with 10 attachment points to hat

• Anti-knockback/anti-rattle disc attachment hardware

• Replacement iron disc rings available at an extremely competitive replacement price

• Disc metallurgy specifically designed to handle the temps typically seen on track offer a long service life

• Highest quality, Spiegler stainless steel brake line with clear sheath that reduces compliance over OEM rubber design
