Performance - Audi S3 (8V) WITH Gpf

Reduce weight. Reduce heat. Go Faster. Stop Faster! ECS Tuning engineered 2-Piece semi-floating rotors offer real world benefits that can be felt on both the street and track! Our 2-Piece rotors combine the advantages of weight savings and rapid heat dissipation to provide a rotor superior to stock while preventing warping and extending component life. The 18% reduction of unsprung weight by (4.2 pounds per rotor) improves handling characteristics under all situations. This reduction in rotational inertia allows for quicker acceleration, decreased braking distances, and more responsive handling. Features include: Aluminum hats: To save weight, each rotor ring is bolted to a lightweight aluminum hat made from high quality 6061 aluminum, and hard anodized with an attractive matte black finish that is both durable and corrosion resistant. Gray cast iron rings: Long known for its wear resistance and stable friction characteristics, cast iron is favored for brake rotors due to its ability to absorb and dissipate large amounts of heat. 2-Piece construction: Conventional rotors are made from 1 solid block of cast iron, causing them to be typically quite heavy and not able to quickly dissipate heat. ECS rotor hats are bolted directly to the rotor ring for massive weight savings and better ability to dissipate braking temperatures.  Heat treated: Heat treating further reduces the tendency for rotor cracking by reducing internal rotor stresses. ECS 2-Piece rotors feature side-specific directionally curved vanes which pump air through the rotor at a higher velocity, leading to consistent, rapid cooling on both sides equally.    The air velocity in curved vane rotors is higher than pillar-post rotors and straight vane rotors, and as such curved vane rotors have been shown to cool more effectively. ECS Slotted 2-Piece rotors are slotted to clean brake pads and carry away water and brake dust. Slotting reduces the effects of pad glazing that often results from extremely high temperatures by continually cleaning the pad surface, resulting in more consistent stopping. Slots are machined with a ball end mill to prevent cracking that may be present on improperly machined rotors.  Overall weight savings: This particular ECS 2-Piece rotor weighs only 19.80lbs compared to a stock GTI (PP) / Golf R rotor at 24.0lbs. Lighter rotors reduce unsprung weight and rotational mass to improve both braking and suspension performance. Manufacturing quality: Non-friction ring surfaces, including internal vents, are painted to resist salt and other corrosives. Ground braking surfaces ensure rings run parallel, and pads bed easily. Includes ECS Stainless Rotor Set Screws to eliminate rusty factory fasteners   Ready for a replacement set of rotors? ECS offers discounts on pairs of replacement rotors to the original customer or customers showing proof of ownership. Please contact the Sales Department for additional information.   *** ECS does not recommend disassembling the two piece rotors***

Racingline Performance Stage 3 Brake Kit - 355mm - MQB Cars The RacingLine Stage 3 Forged Monoblock Brake Kit moves braking technology to a level above anything seen before in this market.Our design vision was made possible by our advanced 5-axis CNC manufacturing techniques to give this kit more in common with top-level motorsport components than typical aftermarket parts. The result is a combination of ultimate track performance with lightness, stiffness and beautiful attention to detail.Each lightweight Forged Monoblock caliper is a one-piece construction that starts out from an ultra-strong forged billet. Rather than two halves bolted together, our design takes a complex 5-axis CNC machining procedure to build, usually reserved only for the highest-specification motorsport kits.The result is a 6-piston caliper that is both stiffer and lighter than any other, combined with exceptional cooling characteristics and stunning detailing.Despite the size of these calipers, they weigh in significantly under the mass of the factory ones. The caliper, pads and bracket assembly together weigh 5.3kg (11.7lb) vs 8.6kg (18.9lb) for the factory Golf 7R / S3 equivalent.The kit includes 355mm fully-floating ‘triple-grove’ two-piece discs giving vastly greater heat capacity, so reducing the effect of fade. What's in the Kit? - Monoblock Front Brake Calipers (Pair)- Caliper Mounting Brackets (Pair)- Full Mounting Bolt Kit- Braided Steel Front Brake Line Set- Sport Brake Pad Set (Fast Road Use)- 355mm Fully Floating 2 Piece Brake Discs (Pair)If you are looking for replacement brake pad options for this brake kit, Please --> CLICK HERE!! <--Notes: - 355mm kit will fit under 18" Alloy Wheels- Factory 18" wheels and other brands may require spacers- Racingline and Neuspeed 18" wheels will not require Spacers- When using this kit on Track, it is important to remove the dust boots from the caliper pistons.

350mm 2-Piece Floating Rear Brake Rotor Upgrade for MQB VW & Audi is a complete replacement brake rotor and caliper carrier kit, designed to work flawlessly with the factory rear calipers. Upgrading your rotors will increase overall braking performance in street, track, and HDPE driving conditions, as they keep your brakes cool and strong all day long!Weighing in at approximately 14lbs, each rotor reduces rotational weight by 1lb on each corner over the factory 15lb rotors and increases rotor diameter from 310mm to 350mm! This increases stopping power and reduces rotational weight! While reducing weight, the rotor retains proper thermal mass in the rings to adequately capture, and dissipate heat.The central hat portion of the 034Motorsport rotor is made of 6061-T6 aircraft specification aluminum. The disc is constructed out of a proprietary metal alloy that can withstand immense braking temperatures while holding form. The rotor utilizes 72 directionally curved veins to forcefully flow cool air through the rotor to dissipate heat.The face of the rotor utilizes J-Hook slots to clean the pad surface of contaminants and allows hot pad outgassing.The rotor and hat have a floating mount system that utilizes high strength alloy steel bobbins. The pins take the load from braking actions while maintaining the axial and radial float between the hat and disc, allowing for safe expansion and contraction from heat. FEATURES: Lightweight Construction (14lb 350mm 034Motorsport Rotor vs. 15lb 310mm OE Rotor) Floating, 2-Piece Design Aerospace Grade Aluminum Hats CM-250 Special Alloy Rotor Rings J-Hook Slotted Friction Face OEM Fitment & Functionality 72 Curved Vanes Force Cooling Air through Brake Disc Floating Bobbins Mounting System Replaceable Rotor Rings Lower Long-term Maintenance Cost WHAT'S INCLUDED: 034Motorsport 2-Piece Floating Rear Rotor Pair Caliper carrier conversion brackets
