This Brembo GT Big Brake Kit includes everything you need to significantly upgrade the braking performance on your 2008-2016 Audi R8 with the 4.2L or 5.2L engine and CC Brake Equipment. You'll get a pair of massive 380x34mm two-piece rotors, drilled for heat dissipation, along with a set of Brembo's robust 6-piston GT calipers in a striking red finish. This kit is designed to be a direct replacement for your factory brake system, making installation straightforward for a substantial improvement in stopping capability.

Brembo is well-known for their high-performance braking components, and this GT Big Brake Kit is a prime example. The larger 380x34mm two-piece rotors offer more surface area and thermal mass, allowing them to handle much higher temperatures without fading compared to stock. The drilled pattern on the rotors helps to vent gases and heat away from the pad surface, maintaining consistent braking performance even under aggressive use. The 6-piston calipers provide increased clamping force and a more even distribution of pressure across the brake pads, further enhancing stopping power and feel. The cast caliper construction is solid and built to withstand the rigors of hard driving.

When undertaking a big brake kit installation, it's always a good idea to consult the manufacturer's installation guide for specific torque values and procedures. While this kit is designed as a direct fit, ensuring proper setup is key to realizing its full potential. You'll notice a significant difference in pedal feel and braking confidence, especially during spirited driving or track events. This kit is a substantial upgrade for any R8 owner looking to maximize their vehicle's performance and safety.
