{"product_id":"big-brake-kit-with-2-piece-disc-and-rotor-i-mini-r5x","title":"Big Brake Kit with 2 Piece Disc and Rotor I MINI R5X","description":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eDeveloped for drivers demanding motorsport level braking performance, this Big Brake Kit combines proven AP Racing calipers, lightweight two piece discs and carefully specified supporting components. The result is a complete braking package engineered to deliver exceptional stopping power, heat management, pedal consistency and durability under demanding road and track use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eAt the heart of the system is a pair of AP Racing 4 piston brake calipers. Their rigid construction and multi piston design provide powerful, controlled clamping force across the brake pad, delivering the stopping performance and modulation required when braking repeatedly from high speed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLightweight Two Piece Disc Assembly\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eRather than using a conventional one piece brake disc, the kit features a two piece disc and bell assembly designed to reduce unnecessary rotating and unsprung mass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe bells are precision manufactured from 7075 aluminium, selected for its exceptional strength to weight ratio. This allows the assembly to retain the strength required in a high performance braking application while keeping weight extremely low.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eEach aluminium bell is paired with a grooved and internally vented cast iron friction disc. Internal ventilation helps control temperature during repeated heavy braking, while the grooved braking surface helps maintain consistent interaction between the pad and disc.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrake Pads\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eTo make full use of the AP Racing calipers and two piece discs, the kit is supplied with Mintex F2R race compound brake pads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eF2R is a dedicated performance friction material selected for its strong initial bite, high temperature capability and consistent braking performance under repeated heavy use. This makes it particularly well suited to track driving, where maintaining predictable friction characteristics as brake temperatures rise is essential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eCombined with the rigid AP Racing caliper, the F2R pads provide the braking response, modulation and confidence expected from a serious motorsport braking system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003ePerformance should not come at the expense of the driving experience, which is why the kit also includes anti rattle plates for the brake pads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eRace brake pads and performance calipers can naturally allow some pad movement, particularly at lower speeds and over uneven road surfaces. The anti rattle plates help control this movement, reducing the unwanted knocks, rattles and bangs that can otherwise accompany a motorsport style braking setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eIt is a relatively small detail that makes a significant difference. Less unwanted brake noise means the driver can concentrate on the car and enjoy the drive rather than wondering whether every knock or rattle is something that needs attention.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCaliper Mounting Brackets\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe caliper mounting brackets are manufactured from steel and zinc passivated for corrosion protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eSteel has been deliberately selected for this critical component because of its excellent strength and fatigue characteristics. With the bracket repeatedly subjected to substantial braking loads and thermal cycles, material selection is more important than simply pursuing the lowest possible weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe result is a robust mounting solution engineered to maintain accurate caliper location and withstand the repeated loads generated during hard braking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrake Lines\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eA high performance braking system is only as good as the driver's connection to it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe kit therefore includes Goodridge braided brake hoses, helping to reduce hose expansion under pressure compared with conventional rubber brake lines. This contributes towards a firmer, more consistent pedal and improved feedback when braking hard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrake Fluid\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eHigh temperature DOT 5.1 brake fluid is also supplied to complete the package.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eIts high temperature capability provides additional resistance to fluid boiling during demanding use while retaining a sensible service interval for a performance vehicle. This makes it an excellent choice for a braking system intended to deliver serious performance without introducing unnecessarily short fluid maintenance intervals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eMotorsport level big brake conversion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eAP Racing 4 piston calipers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eMintex F2R race compound brake pads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eStrong initial bite and excellent high temperature performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eAnti rattle brake pad plates included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eReduced pad movement, knocking and unwanted brake noise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eLightweight two piece brake disc and bell construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003ePrecision machined 7075 aluminium bells\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eExcellent strength to weight ratio\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eGrooved cast iron friction discs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eInternally vented discs for effective heat management\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eSteel caliper mounting brackets for excellent strength and fatigue resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eZinc passivated brackets for corrosion protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eGoodridge braided brake hoses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eImproved pedal consistency and feedback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eHigh temperature DOT 5.1 brake fluid included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eDesigned to withstand repeated high energy braking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"p1\"\u003eEngineered for serious performance road and track applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA Complete Motorsport Level Braking Package\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eEvery component has been selected to perform a specific role within the complete braking system.
