Wilwood 99-12 Porsche 911(996/997) Aero6 Front Brake Kit Slotted 14.00in Rotor W/Lines - Yellow

The 14.00-inch diameter rotors in this Wilwood Aero6 front brake kit are slotted, meaning they have machined grooves across the braking surface. These slots help to vent gases and dust away from the pad surface, which keeps the pads making solid contact with the rotor. This is especially important when you're pushing your 1999-2012 Porsche 911 (996/997) hard, as it helps maintain consistent stopping performance and reduces the chance of brake fade.

This kit includes Wilwood's Aero6 calipers, which are a popular choice for performance applications. They are a six-piston design, meaning each caliper uses six individual pistons to apply pressure to the brake pads. More pistons generally mean more even pressure distribution across the pad, leading to better braking feel and more effective clamping force. The calipers themselves are finished in a bright yellow powder coat, adding a distinct visual element to your front wheels. The kit also includes all the necessary stainless steel braided brake lines, which are more durable and less prone to expansion under pressure than rubber lines, contributing to a firmer pedal feel.

When you're upgrading your braking system on a performance vehicle like a Porsche 911, it's important to consider the entire package. This Wilwood kit is designed to provide a significant improvement in stopping power and heat management over the stock setup. It's a comprehensive front-end solution that includes the calipers, rotors, pads, and lines, making it a solid option for enthusiasts looking to enhance their vehicle's performance capabilities. Remember to consult the manufacturer's installation instructions for specific details regarding fitment and any additional components that may be required for your particular model year.
