AP Racing - AP7150 Rear 4 Piston 356mm Big Brake Kit

One walk down a NASCAR pit lane says all that needs to be said about what the pros choose. Professional teams choose AP Racing, with over 50 years of winning experience in Formula 1, Grand Am, American LeMans, World Rally Championship, Touring car and more across the globe. AP Racing brakes were the first to complete the 24 Hours of LeMans with no pad or disc change (1999 race winner - BMW V12 LMR). No matter which category AP Racing is involved in, the results are the same - winning!

Brake calipers produced by AP Racing use the latest in materials, post-treatments, coatings and manufacturing methods. One can be fooled by fancy charts and graphs of irrelevant room-temperature caliper deflection. The real test is in the driver’s seat, where no other calipers can compare. Available in 2, 4 and 6-piston variants, all come with dust seals and anti-rattle clips for real-world drivability in any climate and without pad knock. For better pedal feel, AP chooses a 2-piece aluminum design using high-strength steel bolts, which naturally has greater stiffness than typical road-going all-aluminum monoblock calipers. Finished off by hard anodizing and an extremely durable paint system, these calipers look great while doing the dirty work.

AP Racing brake discs are made from the highest quality cast iron. Curved vane technology is used to shed internal heat, and the optimized cross-drilled and slotted face pattern is developed to increase pad bite and improve cooling. Each hole is radiused, not chamfered, to reduce noise and increase fatigue strength. Slotted-only faces are available for heavy track use and overweight or armored vehicles.

AP Racing have tested brake pad compounds from the best friction manufacturers in the world to bring our customers the latest in stopping power, maximum operating temperature, lower disc wear and less dust and noise. Our newest compounds are the best we have ever tested in all categories: performance, rotor life, wear, noise and dust.
