Brembo 97-04 Corvette C5 Rear GT BBK 4 Piston Cast 345x28 2pc Rotor Slotted Type-1-Red

The 345x28mm, two-piece rotors in this Brembo GT Big Brake Kit are cast iron, chosen for their ability to handle heat and provide a solid foundation for the braking surface. This kit is specifically for the rear of the 1997-2004 Chevrolet Corvette C5, offering a significant upgrade over the factory braking system. The four-piston calipers are designed to apply more even pressure across the larger rotor surface, which helps improve stopping power and heat dissipation.

This kit includes Brembo's Type-1 calipers, known for their robust construction and performance characteristics. The rotors are slotted, which helps to clear out brake dust and gases that can build up between the pad and rotor surface, maintaining consistent friction and preventing glazing. This design is particularly beneficial during repeated hard braking, like on a track or during spirited driving, ensuring the brakes perform reliably when you need them most. The two-piece rotor construction allows for better thermal management, as the aluminum hat can dissipate heat away from the hub and bearing assembly.

When installing this kit, you'll be replacing your factory rear brake components with these high-performance parts. It's a comprehensive upgrade designed to work as a system, ensuring optimal braking performance. This kit is a substantial investment for Corvette C5 owners looking to maximize their vehicle's stopping capability, whether for track use or simply for enhanced street performance and confidence.
