What is the main benefit of the Z26 Street Warrior Brake Kit?

The Z26 Street Warrior kit is designed to significantly improve your vehicle's stopping power, especially under demanding conditions like high speeds or repeated braking. It achieves this through a combination of drilled and slotted rotors and advanced carbon-fiber ceramic brake pads that dissipate heat more effectively.

Does this kit include everything needed for installation?

Yes, this kit is a complete bolt-on upgrade. It includes the drilled and slotted rotors, the Z26 carbon-fiber ceramic brake pads, and all the necessary stainless-steel installation hardware along with high-temperature ceramic brake lubricant.

How does the low-dust feature work?

The Z26 brake pads use a special carbon-fiber ceramic compound that has been tested to produce significantly less brake dust compared to original equipment pads. This means your wheels will stay cleaner for longer, reducing the need for frequent cleaning.

Product Details

If you've got a high-performance muscle car or a modified street machine that needs to stop with authority, this PowerStop Z26 Street Warrior Brake Kit is a solid option. It's designed to handle the extra demands that come with more horsepower, giving you the confidence to rein it all in when you need to.

This kit bundles together drilled and slotted rotors with proprietary carbon-fiber ceramic brake pads, all engineered to work as a system. The drilled holes in the rotors help vent heat and gases, while the slots sweep away dust and debris, keeping the pad surface clean for consistent stopping. The carbon-fiber ceramic pads themselves are built to dissipate heat better than standard ceramic pads, which is crucial for maintaining braking performance during spirited driving or repeated stops. You'll notice improved stopping power, especially at higher speeds, and the low-dust formula means your wheels will stay cleaner between washes.

Everything you need for a bolt-on upgrade is included, right down to stainless-steel hardware and high-temperature brake lubricant. This kit fits a wide range of popular vehicles from the late 70s and early 80s, like the Buick Century, Chevrolet Malibu, and Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme, making it an accessible way to significantly upgrade your braking performance without needing to modify your stock setup.
