Brembo 08-16 R8 PISTA Front Race BBK 6 Piston Forged380x34x6 5a 2pc Rotor T5-Clear HA

The forged aluminum calipers in this Brembo PISTA Big Brake Kit are a key component for serious track use, offering a strong yet lightweight foundation for extreme braking demands. This kit is specifically designed for the 2008-2016 Audi R8, providing a substantial upgrade over the factory braking system. It's built to handle the intense heat and forces generated during repeated hard braking on a race track, ensuring consistent stopping power when you need it most.

At the heart of this kit are the massive 380x34mm two-piece rotors. The floating design allows the rotor to expand and contract independently of the hat, which helps prevent rotor warping under extreme thermal loads. The T5-Clear HA finish on the rotors is a specialized coating designed to offer corrosion resistance while maintaining optimal braking performance, even in harsh conditions. The six-piston caliper design ensures even pressure distribution across the pad surface, maximizing braking force and providing excellent pedal feel. This setup is a significant step up for any R8 owner looking to push their vehicle's limits on the track.

When installing a kit of this caliber, it's important to note that it's designed for track-focused applications. While it offers a notable improvement in stopping power, it's intended to be used with appropriate race-oriented brake pads and fluid to achieve its full potential. Refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for detailed guidance on proper fitment and setup to ensure optimal performance and safety.
