S80 Big Brakes

Affordable Big Brake Upgrades for your S80.

The calipers are no nonsense Forged Wilwood 4 piston, super high performance street compound pads, CNC machined steel adapters that are designed for 10x standard loads, grade 8 and 10.9 hardware throughout and top quality braided hoses.

This is the same caliber of brake package you would find on an E65 AMG or M6! The big guys all use one piece rotors and they work really well. You’ll love what these brakes do for your ride.

ROTORS: One piece iron vented and cross drilled for superior cooling in high performance driving conditions. The huge thermal mass and cooling efficiency of these rotors virtually eliminates brake fade. The standard rotors in this category are cross drilled. You may order slotted only rotors or cross drilled and slotted rotors for a fee. If you are using this kit in competition, we recommend you use slotted only or plain rotors. Plain rotors can be ordered at no additional charge.

CALIPERS: Th forged aluminum Wilwood four piston fixed mount calipers are extremely rugged and light to help reduce unsprung weight. The forging process allows for a very strong rigid design without the use of excess material, they are super light (4.5 lbs compared to stock iron calipers which typically range from 9 to 12 lbs each). For more information on calipers click here: (link to our NEW page “wilwood calipers used in Revolution Brake BBK’s”) These calipers are equally comfortable on the street, strip or the circuit. You know you’re in good hands with race proven parts.

PADS:Standard equipment in our production Big Brake Kits is high performance street compound. If you are a competition driver, please keep in mind that not only does Wilwood make 8 different pad compounds to suite your every driving need, but at least 10 other friction companies provide their own assortment of compounds. It would be difficult to completely exhaust your pad options for these calipers.

MOUNTING HARDWARE: Adapters are heavy duty steel, powder coated for corrosion resistance and appearance. All hardware is grade 8, 10.9 or better including flat washers. Adapters are designed to be light weight while insuring safety with our “Ten-x Adapters” design philosophy (adapters designed to withstand ten times the maximum brake torque capability of the BBK). In twenty years of brake system design and manufacture for all kinds of applications, we have never had a single adapter failure. One unfortunate racer reported after a high speed tangle with the wall “all that was left of my right front corner was the caliper bracket!!”

FLEX HOSES: Stainless steel braided Teflon hoses are an integral part of the package. This is an affordable upgrade, but we refuse to cut corners where it counts. These are the same high quality flex lines you will find in our expensive two piece packages used with standard fittings specific to the vehicle chassis concerned. Separate hose mounting hardware is included. Good hoses are a great final touch in the drive to eliminate system flex and keep your pedal firm.

This kit is designed for a perfect fit on the front of your vehicle. We guarantee an easy install, flawless workmanship, a perfect fit and excellent performance.
