Exclusive North American Distributor


2005-2007 Chevrolet Corvette C6 / Z51 / Z06 and 2005-2007 Cadillac XLR / XLR-V
6-Piston, 14.88” 2 Piece Rotor AP Racing Front Brake Kit Part # AP6000 and AP6000R

Our 6-Piston, 2-piece rotor AP Racing front brake system is the ultimate brake upgrade for the C6 Corvette. AP racing is the same manufacturer chosen by the factory C6.R race team. Packing a massive increase in stopping power, this kit gives the performance-minded driver full confidence whether at a track day or running the canyons. As with all AP Racing kits, it is designed to perform with the factory OE master cylinder and is fully compatible with factory ABS subsystems. The world famous AP Racing 6-Piston aluminum calipers with 14.88" (378mm) cross-drilled and slotted two-piece rotors ensure that your Corvette will stop time and time again, reducing the fade found in the stock brakes. This kit DOES FIT behind stock Z06 wheels. Complete with caliper mounting brackets, DOT-compliant stainless steel brake lines, Mintex Xtreme brake pads and all the necessary high-grade installation hardware.

Mintex Xtreme Pads do not compromise wear and noise for superior stopping capability. These pads are good from 0-1300º F and do not squeal like most "high performance" pads. They also work cold, unlike other compromised pads which may leave you shaken up on the first stops of the day.

Now you can possess the same advanced brake technology preferred in NASCAR, Formula 1, World Rally Car (WRC), Champ Cars, and more at an affordable price. A 4-Piston Rear kit is currently under development so you can upgrade every corner.

Available in two colors: Red calipers with black script or Black calipers with yellow script.

Other applications available. For more information, please contact Brake-Pros at 800-711-4123.
