Brembo 97-04 Corvette C5 Front GT BBK 4 Piston Cast 2pc 355x32 2pc Rotor Drilled-Black

This Brembo GT Big Brake Kit for your 1997-2004 Corvette C5 front end gives you everything you need to significantly upgrade your braking system. You get a pair of four-piston, cast aluminum calipers, two-piece 355x32mm rotors that are drilled and black, plus all the necessary hardware to get them installed. This kit is designed to replace your factory setup with a much more robust and capable system, ideal for drivers who push their Corvettes hard, whether on the street or the track.

The calipers themselves are a substantial upgrade, featuring four pistons that apply more even pressure across the brake pad surface compared to most stock calipers. This means better stopping power and more consistent pedal feel, especially during repeated hard braking. The two-piece rotor design is also a key feature. The aluminum hat stays cooler and is less prone to warping than a one-piece rotor, while the cast iron friction ring handles the heat of braking. The 355x32mm size offers a larger swept area for improved heat dissipation and fade resistance. The drilled pattern on the rotors helps to vent gases and heat away from the pad surface, further enhancing performance and preventing glazing.

Installing a big brake kit like this is a significant modification, and it's designed to be a direct replacement for your stock components, meaning no welding or major fabrication is typically required. However, it's always a good idea to consult the manufacturer's installation guide for specific details and torque specifications. This kit represents a serious investment in your Corvette's performance and safety, offering a noticeable improvement in braking performance that you can feel every time you hit the pedal.
