The Brembo Gran Turismo High Performance Braking System offers significant advantages over the OE manufacturer's system — advantages far beyond what's simply known as "big brakes". As the braking system's primary function is to dissipate heat, larger, more sophisticated discs are used in order to increase the fade resistance of the system. These discs are directionally vented for enhanced cooling, as well as drilled or slotted for improved consistency, continuously cleaning and refreshing the pad surface. Each Gran Turismo system comes with high performance brake pads, aircraft quality hardware, DOT and TÜV— approved Goodridge stainless steel braided brake lines, instruction manual and dye cut stickers for your car.
