It replaces factory rear rotors and pads with drilled and slotted rotors paired with carbon-fiber ceramic brake pads to improve braking response, reduce fade, and enhance consistency during everyday driving.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe drilled and slotted rotor design improves heat dissipation and helps clear gas, dust, and moisture from the braking surface, allowing for more stable and predictable braking performance. The carbon-fiber ceramic pads are engineered for low dust output and quieter operation while providing improved stopping performance compared to standard OEM friction materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis kit is designed as a direct bolt-on replacement using factory calipers and mounting points, requiring no modifications. All necessary components are included for a complete rear brake refresh. Rotor size and vehicle-specific brake configuration should be verified before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PowerStop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55099513864511,"sku":"PSBK8068","price":139.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0832\/7308\/9343\/files\/3c27a955b6a746332ffbdd2bad963c33.jpg?v=1786613651","url":"https:\/\/wcaperformance.com\/products\/power-stop-16-18-mazda-6-rear-z23-evolution-sport-brake-kit","provider":"WCA Performance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
