What is the main benefit of an aluminum caliper body?

An aluminum caliper body is lighter than a traditional cast iron caliper, which can help reduce unsprung weight. The two-piece bolted construction also allows for easier servicing of the caliper if needed.

What brake pad shape does this caliper use?

This EBC Racing Apollo-6 caliper uses the DP006 EBC pad shape. This ensures compatibility with a range of EBC brake pads designed for this specific fitment.

Does this caliper come with brake pads?

This product is for the caliper only. It does not include brake pads. You will need to purchase compatible brake pads separately, such as those using the DP006 EBC pad shape.

The striking blue finish not only looks good behind your wheels but also signifies a significant step up in braking performance compared to stock components.
