Brembo GT System 1B3.8030A3: Unmatched Braking Performance

If you’re serious about performance, the Brembo GT System 1B3.8030A3 is designed to take your braking to the next level. Tailored for select Mercedes-Benz models, this kit is a game-changer for both daily driving and track days. From the streets to the circuit, it’s engineered to deliver consistent, reliable stopping power that you can count on.

Precision Engineering at Its Best

At the heart of the Brembo GT System is a set of meticulously crafted aluminum calipers. These monoblock calipers are forged from a single piece of cast aluminum, ensuring maximum rigidity and minimal flex under heavy braking conditions. This means you get a solid, responsive feel every time you hit the pedal, whether you're navigating tight corners or slamming on the brakes at high speeds.

Disc Design for Optimal Cooling

The 1B3.8030A3 kit features rotors that come in both floating and one-piece designs, specifically tailored for your vehicle’s make and model. With an innovative venting system built into the discs, you can expect enhanced cooling capabilities that reduce the risk of thermal shock-related cracking by up to 40%. The cross-drilled and slotted designs serve a dual purpose: they look fantastic and help dissipate heat while clearing away brake dust and gases, ensuring that your brakes perform optimally in any condition.

High-Performance Brake Pads Included

Each kit comes complete with high-performance brake pads formulated with friction materials that match the demands of your driving style. Whether you’re cruising or racing, these pads provide the bite you need for confidence-inspiring stops. Plus, TUV/DOT homologated metal-braided hoses add durability and reliability, further enhancing the overall performance of your braking system.

Key Features

  • Enhanced stopping power with larger rotors and multi-piston calipers for reduced stopping distances.
  • Improved heat dissipation to prevent brake fade during intense use.
