EBC Racing 01-09 Porsche 911 (996/997) Black Apollo-6 Calipers 355mm Rotors Front Big Brake Kit

This is the EBC Racing Black Apollo-6 Big Brake Kit for the 2001-2009 Porsche 911 models, specifically the 996 and 997 generations. This kit upgrades your front braking system with larger 355mm rotors and powerful 6-piston calipers, designed to handle the demands of spirited driving and track use.

The Apollo-6 calipers are forged from aluminum and feature a black anodized finish for durability and a clean look. They are equipped with six pistons, which distribute braking force more evenly across the larger rotor surface. This results in improved stopping power and better heat dissipation compared to the factory setup. The kit includes 355mm diameter, 2-piece floating rotors. These rotors are constructed with a cast iron friction ring and an aluminum center hat, which helps reduce weight and manage heat. The floating design allows the rotor to expand and contract freely with temperature changes, preventing warping and ensuring consistent performance. EBC also includes their high-performance Yellowstuff brake pads, known for their excellent initial bite and fade resistance under heavy use.

This kit is a significant upgrade for any 911 owner looking to enhance their vehicle's braking performance. It's designed as a direct bolt-on for the specified Porsche models, simplifying installation. You'll notice improved pedal feel and much greater confidence during hard braking situations, whether on the street or the track. Ensure you have adequate clearance for the calipers with your current wheel setup; EBC recommends checking wheel fitment before installation.
