C6 Corvette, C6/Z06 StopTech Big Brake Kit (Front Only)
$5,795.00
Big Brake Kits give your vehicle that Supercar look and feel, and exceed
stock performance in two areas. First, larger rotors increase heat capacity.
Second, stiffer calipers and stainless steel lines reduce system compliance.
The key, however, is to increase heat capacity and reduce compliance without
upsetting the stock front to rear brake torqe ratios. If the brake upgrade you
select adds too much front torque (as many do), you reduce your car's ability to
utilize the tractive capacity of all of the tires to the maximum practical
extent (even on ABS equipped cars) and you therefore create performance
sacrifices. In addition, too many pistons or pistons that are too large will
make the brake pedal much more difficult to modulate, which limits a driver's
control of brake input on the race track.
Advantages of StopTech over other brake upgrades:
- Shorter Stopping Distances

Less Brake Fade
