The Power Stop Z23 Evolution Sport Brake Upgrade Kit is designed to enhance the braking performance of your vehicle. This kit provides a low-dust and noise-free upgrade compared to standard brake systems. It includes perfectly matched drilled and slotted rotors, Z23 Evolution Sport carbon-fiber ceramic brake pads, upgraded hardware, and high-performance lubricant.
The carbon-fiber ceramic brake pads are engineered for durability and provide increased stopping power without compromising daily drivability. The rotors are manufactured with G3000 metallurgy and OE tolerances, ensuring a direct fit without modifications. Precision drill holes facilitate maximum rotor cooling, while rounded slots help clear gas and debris for consistent braking. A Silver Zinc Dichromate plating protects the rotors against rust and corrosion.

Operating Instructions (Break-in Procedure)
Proper break-in (bedding-in) of new brake pads and rotors is crucial for optimal performance and longevity. Follow these steps carefully:
- Perform 5-6 moderate stops from 40 mph down to 10 mph. Avoid coming to a complete stop.
- Allow the brakes to cool for 10-15 minutes.
- Perform 2-3 hard stops from 50 mph down to 10 mph. Again, avoid coming to a complete stop.
- Allow the brakes to cool completely for at least 30 minutes before normal driving.
During the break-in period, avoid heavy braking, sudden stops, and prolonged braking (e.g., riding the brakes down a long hill). This process transfers a thin layer of pad material to the rotor surface, which is essential for optimal friction and reduced noise.
Manteniment
La inspecció i el manteniment regulars del sistema de frens són vitals per a la seguretat i el rendiment.
Calendari de manteniment recomanat:
- Every 5,000-7,500 miles or 6 months: Inspect brake pads for wear, rotors for scoring or warping, and brake fluid level.
- Anualment: Have the brake system professionally inspected, including calipers, lines, and hoses. Consider flushing and replacing brake fluid as per your vehicle manufacturer's recommendations.
The Z23 Carbon Fiber Ceramic pads are designed for low dust and noise-free operation. However, any significant changes in brake feel, noise, or performance should be addressed immediately by a qualified technician.
Resolució de problemes
| Símptoma | Causa possible | Solució |
|---|---|---|
| Soroll de xiscle/grinxament | Improper break-in, worn pads, foreign object, caliper issue. | Re-perform break-in, inspect pads for wear, check for debris, inspect calipers. |
| Vibration/Pulsation during braking | Warped rotors, uneven pad wear, loose wheel bearings. | Inspect rotors for runout, check pad wear, inspect wheel bearings. |
| Soft/Spongy Brake Pedal | Aire a les línies de fre, baix nivell de líquid de frens, cilindre mestre defectuós. | Bleed brake system, check fluid level, inspect master cylinder. |
| Excessive Brake Dust | Normal during initial use, or incorrect pad material. | Ensure proper break-in. Z23 pads are designed for low dust; if excessive, re-evaluate installation or components. |
If you experience any persistent brake issues, consult a professional automotive technician immediately.
