Brembo 97-04 Corvette C5 Rear GT BBK 4 Piston Cast 345x28 2pc Rotor Drilled-Black

The 345x28mm, two-piece rotors in this Brembo GT Big Brake Kit are a key component for serious Corvette C5 performance. This kit is built around a robust 4-piston caliper design, specifically for the rear of your 1997-2004 Corvette C5. It’s a significant upgrade over the factory setup, aimed at drivers who push their cars hard and need braking performance to match.

Brembo uses cast iron for the caliper bodies, a material known for its strength and ability to handle heat. The rotors are a two-piece design, meaning the aluminum hat separates from the iron braking surface. This construction helps manage heat expansion and can make rotor replacement easier down the line. The rotors are drilled, which helps with heat dissipation and can also clear out brake dust and gas under hard braking, maintaining consistent stopping power. This kit is designed to be a comprehensive solution, giving you the braking confidence needed for spirited driving or track use.

When installing a kit like this, it's important to follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully. Ensure you have the necessary tools and consider flushing your brake fluid with a high-performance DOT 4 fluid to get the most out of these upgraded components. This kit is a substantial investment in your Corvette's performance and safety.
