Stoptech advises in their instruction manual to not use brake clean, which is important. As always make sure you remove the rust inhibitor coating on your rotors prior to installation or else you could damage your brake pads.

Onto the rears!

"StopTech Sport Kits represent excellent performance at an excellent value by providing significant brake performance improvements using direct-replacement (OEM) sized components. Sport Kits are the easiest way to upgrade your rotors, brake lines and pads for improved braking performance while retaining the existing factory calipers and wheel fitment.

StopTech Power Slot Rotors will increase the looks and performance of your BRZ. The unique slotted friction surface helps wipe away debris that can form between the pad and the disc, provides more initial pad bite, improves cooling, and will add a sporty aesthetic. All Power Slot rotors feature a friction surface coating to prevent glazing as well as a durable black e-coating on the center sections to prevent corrosion and enhance the look of aftermarket wheels.

StopTech Performance Pads are a great option for those that are looking for a good all around street pad that may see limited track time. Designed with a higher heat tolerance and temperature range, the StopTech Performance pads will out perform most other OEM quality pads on the street or track. Para-aramid composites provide linear response regardless of pad temperature. You can expect increased dust but a minimal increase in noise. These are also standard in StopTech's big brake kits.

StopTech Braided Stainless Steel Brake Lines reduce the brake system's compliance and improve brake pedal feel and modulation. StopTech's Stainless Steel Brake Lines are D.O.T. compliant and designed specifically to fit your BRZ. All necessary brackets and fasteners for easy installation.

Remove your old gross brake rotors that don't have totally cool slotting!



It is always a good idea to inspect everything as well while you are removing components. Check for any missing, torn, or worn componenets that may need replacing. It'll make your life easier on down the road!



Install the new rotor and reinstall the caliper with new brake pads! Stoptech also does make BBK for the rear, but we decided to go with only the front and sport kit for the rear.

The front and rear brakes feel great. After correctly breaking them in per Stoptech's intructions the braking power was unreal. We look forward to getting these out this spring on the Auto X and Drift course at New Hampshire Motor Speedway events for SCCNH and ClubLoose North. If looking into a big brake kit, certainly make these Stoptech brakes a top priority to check out if you intend to use the vehicle for heavy motorsports use. We will post more updates on them shortly, did we mention how awesome they look too especially behind the AME Japan TM02 wheels?
