STILLEN OFFERS NEW AP RACING 2008-2010 BMW M3 (E9x)
FRONT AND REAR BIG BRAKE KITS FOR
Features innovative Strap Drive System for road and track day applications
Costa Mesa, Calif. – AP Racing, the braking technology choice of professional race teams worldwide (including Rahal Letterman IMSA ALMS GT2 M3, BMW Motorsports FIA GT2 M3, etc), has introduced front and rear Big Brake System
for the 2008-2010 BMW M3 (E9x). Available from the Brake Pros product division of
STILLEN, these new brake upgrades fit most 18"
and 19" OE wheels. They are compatible with OE ABS, traction control, stability
systems and factory brake master cylinder.
Front systems may be ordered with AP Racing’s newly updated 6-piston CP5555 calipers finished in black (AP7100), red (AP7100R) -- or -- limited-edition Comp Gray (AP7100G). For optimum mechanical and thermal balance, complimentary rear systems are advised. The rear systems are supplied with AP Racing’s new CP5306 4-piston calipers in matching colors (AP7150 / AP7150R / AP7150G).
Manufactured for maximum stopping power and minimum brake fade, the kit offers high
performance braking capability with race proven technology and comes complete with
calipers, rotors, brake pads, coated stainless steel braided brake lines and all
necessary mounting hardware for immediate bolt-on.
Two-piece modular rotors float on an aluminum hat and have 72 directionally curved
vanes to maximize cooling in extreme brake situations. Both front and rear rotors
are available in a cross-drilled and slotted pattern for an aggressivepad bite
and better face cooling or can be purchased slotted only for aggressive track use. The AP Racing Strap
Drive System has been developed for both road and track day applications. It uses
a series of stainless steel straps to locate the disc to the mounting bell, producing
a flexible coupling between the hub and the disc faces. This allows the disc to
run true in the caliper under all conditions and also permits the disc to expand
and contract without being restricted.
Strong, durable and designed to withstand any punishment, AP Racing Brake calipers
are manufactured with a lightweight, pressure cast aluminum alloy 2-piece body and
finished with a hard anodized 2-part paint finish. This 2-piece design is more rigid
than commonly available monoblock calipers. Differential piston bores eliminate
pad taper and maximize braking efficiency, and the anti-rattle clip eliminates pad
knock and noise. A fixed radial mount ensures minimal caliper flex for the best
available brake feel under all operating conditions.
