RacingBrake BBK New Release and Specials!

RacingBrake is very proud to announce that they are now releasing a new BBK for the RX8 Line up.






RacingBrake calipers are made from forged 6061-T6 aluminum and precisely machined to every detail.
  • Caliper Body: Light weight at only 4.5lbs, these new RB4000 calipers are re-designed and built for the toughest brake jobs with extended service life before any rebuild is required.



  • Piston Material: Made of stainless steel instead of aluminum commonly used by other caliper manufacturers which can substantially reduce the heat transfer (approx 1/10 of aluminum) from the pad to brake fluid. Pistons are vented to further reduce the heat contact area and improve air circulation thereby reducing more heat transfer. Being that stainless steel has a comparable melting point (2700°F) to brake pads' steel backing plates, the pistons will never melt to the pad backing plates. Aluminum pistons (1220°F) can melt to brake pad backing plates under extreme high speed braking. (Image 1)



  • Dust Seal: Our dust seal is of built-in type (instead of external boot type) uniquely designed to shield the dust and foreign material from contamination and will not rip - as commonly seen on boot type dust seals. (Image 2)



  • Hardware: Brake pad pins and banjo connections were re-designed for easier brake line connection and brake pad replacement.



  • Surface Coating: Powder coating with most durable finish for lasting appeal.



  • Hardware: Most hardware is made of stainless steel for durable performance and appearance.



  • Never Get Lost Bleeder Cap: Newly designed with a retaining loop so you will never have to find it again and/replace the lost ones. (made of durable EPDM) (Image 3)



  • Use standard FMSI brake pads (D647): A very common P/N (same as WRX 4-pot fix pistons calipers, plenty of choice for suppliers and compounds.



  • Made in USA: Calipers are designed, fully assembled and hydro-tested in our Fullerton, CA facility, with full after sales support/service.

RacingBrake calipers are mounted to the adapter with two high strength alloy steel bolts in a radial direction (top mount) - from the caliper down to the adapter. A top mount caliper is more rigid than a side mount caliper.

I will only be running the GB for 30 days so get on this killer pricing ASAP!!!!

Do you have to hit 5-10 units of any particular kit or 5-10 in general to support the pricing?

Well maybe the next 30 days hold good fortune for you I may have 1 set after the GB it really depends on the community.

5-10 to support the pricing. You can select any of the kits once I hit the 5 pre orders I will place the order with racing brake and then we can begin shipping kits the following week. They have good stock on kits but pricing is only available through us with the GB offer.

Let me know if you wanted to jump in.
