Vargas Ultimate Lightweight Rear RACE Brake Kit (No Parking Brake) - Red - G8X

Product Details

Engineered for the serious G8X enthusiast, the VTT Ultimate Lightweight Rear Brake Kit focuses on maximizing mechanical grip by slashing rotating mass. By replacing the heavy factory single-piston sliding calipers and rotors with VTT’s 6-piston lightweight system, drivers can feel the immediate benefit of reduced rotational inertia during launches and cornering. This configuration is tailored for the user who demands a "race-spec" look with its Red 6-piston architecture but requires a pad compound that functions safely from a cold start. The VTT Street Pads included in this kit offer the perfect balance of performance and civility, ensuring that your G8X remains a dual-purpose weapon capable of dropping ETs at the strip or shaving seconds at the track.

Key Features

• Reduced Rotational Inertia: Eliminates over 11 lbs of rotating weight, directly contributing to faster throttle response and improved ETs.

• High-Strength Construction: Uses aircraft-grade CNC 7075 aluminum for both rotor hats and caliper brackets to ensure maximum rigidity under load.

• Enhanced Cooling: The vented rotor design ensures heat is dissipated quickly, making it suitable for street, track, or drag racing duties.

• Stainless Steel Lines: Includes DOT-approved braided stainless brake lines to eliminate the "mushy" feel of factory rubber hoses.

• Optimized Pad Surface: The 6-piston design utilizes a larger pad surface area compared to 4-piston alternatives for increased thermal capacity.
