Braking

For those S13s and 14s who have upgraded to the 300ZX Rotors and Calipers!  This will work with both 26 & 28mm calipers. 5-Bolt hat only

Our very own high performance upgrade for the Z32 brake upgrade.  Our kit retains the factory caliper and rotor size.  By utilizing unique rotor composition, 2-piece hat, and a directional curved vane; the stock braking system has never felt better. 

We put the rotors to the extreme test before finally deciding to release it to the community.  We had to make sure it could stand up to the abuse.  Specialty-Z and a customer of ours worked in conjunction with Baer to create a true performance upgrade for the stock brake size.  Brake kits that use larger rotors on stock calipers maybe flawed since the brake pad is not making a complete face contact with the larger diameter rotor.

Please scroll down to read more on our kit, and purchasing options.

All components from our kit can be ordered individually.

We strongly suggest using the Brake Man pads as testing was done with this pad, and is superior to any other street\track pad in its class.  We do offer Brake Man racing pads for the track enthusiasts, please call us to request this pad.

The front rotors use a 2-piece hat design to reduce weight and offer a great look that stands up to rust.  We offer the rotors only in a plain finish or slotted/zinc as pictured.

The factory front rotor and its replacements (Brembos) weigh in at 17.5lbs a piece.

Our 2-piece design weighs in at 12.5lbs.  A weight savings of 5lbs per rotor!  Reducing unsprung weight, as many already know, has great effect in performance.  Saving weight has never been easier.

A good view of the directional curved vane.  You can see how our rotor on the left has its center cooling vane curved to allow cool air to enter the rotor and remove heat more efficiently.  On the right is an OEM/Brembo rotor, it is easy to see its vane has no good cooling properties compared to our Baer upgrade.

Our Baer rotors are backed by a lifetime warranty by its manufacturer to resist warping.  This applies only to a rotor that is still in spec thickness.

Brake Man Street Pads

OEM replacement brake pads from The Brake Man are now available.  From personal experience these pads are the best I have used on the stock brake setup.  Ask any of our locals. The Brake Man replacement pads kick ass.  Less fading, less dust, more bite, and better cold braking than the competition.  Can it get any better?

Brake Man Brake Pads for the factory systems run $90.00 each for the front and rear.

These rotors bolt up just like stock.  The only thing required is to remove the dust shield.
