AERO6 Big Brake Lug Drive Front Brake Kit (Race) Description

This kit is configured for dedicated road racing on all 1995-1999 BMW E36/M3 models. The AERO6R/ST six piston calipers used in this kit feature a forged aluminum body with a Type III Mil-Spec, medium gray color hard anodized finish. Hard anodizing provides superior wear resistance in the piston bores, and high resistance to abrasion and corrosion throughout. This latest model of the AERO6R/ST calipers features a wider than standard body that accepts 20mm thick pads to add volume for longer service life. Thermlock® pistons are used to reduce heat transfer from the pads to increase fade resistance, and to extend service life by decreasing temperatures in the caliper body, fluid, and seals. Internal damper springs and controlled retraction, high-temperature piston seals assure consistent pedal height from start to finish. Caliper piston volumes are matched for full compatibility with the OE master cylinder output and ABS controls. The kit is also easily configured with manual brake conversions to balance bar pedals using appropriately sized master cylinders. Spec37 alloy GT competition series 14.00” diameter directional vane rotors are dynamically mounted to the OE hubs with weight saving forged aluminum hats. As is with the calipers, the hats are hard anodized for superior wear resistance and extended service life at the load bearing surfaces. Unsprung and rotating weight are minimized while providing high cooling efficiency and rugged durability with thermal stability in sustained high heat competition.
Note 1. Road Race kits contain high temperature racing pads. Extended low temperature use will cause premature rotor and pad wear. Note 2. Kit may fit some 18" wheels. Check wheel clearance diagram in kit installation instructions before purchase.

AERO6 Big Brake Lug Drive Front Brake Kit (Race) Description

AERO6R/ST six piston radial mount race calipers are coupled with the high cooling capacity of 14.00" dynamically mounted Spec37 GT directional vane rotors to provide the ultimate brake package for unrestricted road race competition. AERO6R/ST calipers use a forged aluminum body and feature a Type III Mil-Spec, medium gray color hard anodized finish. Hard anodizing provides superior wear resistance in the piston bores, and high resistance to abrasion and corrosion throughout. This latest model of the AERO6R/ST calipers features a wider than standard body that accepts 20mm thick pads to add volume for longer service life. Thermlock® pistons are used to reduce heat transfer from the pads to increase fade resistance, and extend service life with decreased temperatures in the caliper body, fluid, and seals. Internal damper springs and controlled retraction, high-temperature piston seals assure consistent pedal height from start to finish. Caliper piston volumes are matched for full compatibility with the OE master cylinder output and ABS controls. The calipers are also fully compatible with manual brake conversions to balance bar pedals using appropriately sized master cylinders. Spec37 alloy GT series directional vane rotors are dynamically mounted using our new Lug Drive mounting system to forged aluminum hats. As is with the calipers, the hats are hard anodized for superior wear resistance and extended service life at the load bearing surfaces. Mounting brackets, including all premium grade fasteners, secure the calipers to the uprights in the stock location with no modifications required. This championship proven system is completed with high temperature, high friction, race compound pads selected specifically by application. Installation requires the separate purchase of the stainless steel braided flexline kit that must be ordered according to the model year.
