BKA-580 Installation instructions
Our Carbon Brake Kit is designed to complement our R8/Huracan suspension set and is compatible only with it (WAS-590). These products are specifically engineered for use on drag racing circuits.
To ensure the highest quality for our customers, this kit is designed to be used with Strange Engineering carbon brake discs, pads, and calipers. One of the primary advantages of these components is the ability to use 15" wheels, which are the most popular size in drag racing. The 15" wheels allow for a larger tire profile, significantly increasing traction and improving times.
Additional benefits of this brake kit, when used with the Verkline full suspension kit, include:
– 15" tires do not contact the chassis at high speeds due to tire deformation, an issue sometimes encountered with 17" tires.
– The ability to significantly increase caster for better stability.
– A larger market and greater availability for 15" drag tires.
– Reduced rotational inertia and weight compared to 17" wheels and tires.
– Carbon brake discs that are 35% lighter than the original ones, further reducing rotational inertia and unsprung mass.
– Reinforced brake lines included in the set, enhancing brake feel.
– All components are designed using FEM simulation, ensuring safety, strength, and lightweight properties.
– All mounts are made from 6082-T6 black anodized aluminum, providing excellent strength, corrosion resistance, and heat resistance.
– Despite the reduction in rotor size, our brake set generates 85% of the OEM brake force.
– Brake balance is shifted to the front axle by 15%.
Included in the kit:
- Caliper mounts
- Brake hats and disc retainers
- ABS sensor heat covers
- Brake lines and line mounts
- Bolts and additional hardware necessary for installation
