Gran Turismo Brakes
The Gran Turismo system's level of technology and performance
is unrivaled by any other product on the market. Each system is
designed vehicle specific for maximum performane and "Optimum
Brake Balance".
Gran
Turismo Systems are comprised of lightweight 4, 6 or 8 piston calipers
and 1 piece or 2 piece "floating" vented rotor. Calipers
are available in red, silver or black and discs are available in
cross drilled* and slotted. Increased brake torque and thermal capacity
dramatically improves your vehicles performance.
This powerful combination offers the extreme in
Brembo's leading edge technology for high performance street and
track use applications.
Brembo brake systems are fully compatible with
your vehicles ABS and traction control systems. Systems are pre-assembled
and include all necessary hardware for ease of installation.
This line is dedicated to the most demanding customers.This
braking system originates from the Racing components, consisting
of a ventilated, integral or composite disc, available drilled or
slotted, 4, 6 and 8 piston aluminium calipers, a complete set of
high performance brake pads, metal braid tubes and high quality
small parts.
1. High Performance Friction
Material: Aggressive pads that provide the highest level of performance.
2. Cross-Drilled or Slotted Discs:
Clears gasses, cleans pads for better “bite”.
3. Mounting Brackets and Assembly
Hardware: Aircraft quality included and pre-torqued specifications.
4. Stainless Steel Braided Brake
Line: DOT/TÜV approved.
5. “Floating” Disc
Mounting System with Billet Aluminium Hat: Reduce “Unsprung
Weight” for better handling and reduces heat-related stress;
increases brake performance and pedal feel.
6. Four, Six or Eight Piston
Cast Aluminium Calipers: Provide maximum braking force without the
flex of sliding calipers.
Comparison between floating 2-piece and
1-piece discs
The floating disc mounting system, due to the
aluminium alloy hat, reduces the “unsprung” weight for
better handling and reduces heat-related stress: the mounting system
is designed to allow a specific amount of float in both radial and
axial directions. Brembo has engineered special springs that are
used on every other fastener in order to slightly preload the assembly.
This has been done to prevent excessive noise from the system during
street use. The one-piece discs (both for the Sport and GT lines)
are specifically designed in the goose-neck area to minimize thermal
distortion and thus disc warping under severe use conditions. The
one-piece discs provide excellent stopping power ranging from everyday
traffic conditions to more spirited high performance driving, and
fit into the budget of any enthusiast.
