Advantages Over OEM Brake System
Our CP9661/372mm Radi-CAL Competition Brake Kit offers our customers the following advantages over the OEM brake system:
- Eliminates the need to remove caliper for front pad change
- No unsprung weight penalty vs. OEM despite the additional pistons and much larger disc
- AP Racing Radi-CAL calipers are the stiffest, lightest, and most technologically advanced calipers available at any price
- CP9661 calipers use a 18mm thick, commonly available brake pad shape

- Anodized caliper finish that is resistant to wear and deterioration at elevated temperatures
- Stainless steel caliper hardware for a long caliper service life under frequent pad change conditions
- High temperature, low drag seals that will hold up to track temps= less rebuilding and longer service life
