Product Information

EBC Brakes Racing’s Apollo Big Brake Kits represent the ultimate upgrade when it comes to improving stopping power.

Complete with stunning, British-engineered six-piston calipers and all the hardware you need to completely replace all equivalent components of the front axle of your vehicle’s stock braking system, these complete kits give a firmer and more responsive brake pedal feel and allow you to drive much longer without the onset of brake fade.

Apollo Big Brake Kits are also supplied with front braided brake lines and high-performance fluid, ensuring a brake upgrade that delivers maximum braking performance.

These kits are now available for one of the most acclaimed sports cars of the last two decades: the E46-shape BMW M3 – a car that is still an extremely common sight at race tracks and B-roads around the world.


Features:

  • Dimensions: 355x32mm
  • EBC’s lightweight-yet-strong aluminium 6-piston brake caliper
  • Two-piece bolted design that incorporates high-tensile 12.9-grade steel bolts for reinforcement of the caliper bridge section (computer FEA analysis shows that this offers significant improvements in caliper stiffness compared to a monobloc design)
  • Machined from heat-treated low-pressure castings (this offers a noticeable performance advantage over conventional gravity cast calipers, exhibiting higher overall strength and a comparable caliper body stiffness to forging)
  • High-temperature fluid seals coupled with full boot-type dust seals give maximum protection against road grime and debris
  • Lightweight, hard-anodised aluminium staggered pistons with serrated/castellated piston noses that reduce heat transfer into the braking hydraulics
  • Every single brake caliper pressure tested to 2,500psi
  • Full stainless-steel hardware and fittings, providing durability and longevity – this caliper will never rust
  • Uses standard pad shapes, giving choice when selecting brake pads
  • Rather than a powder-coated finish, all Apollo calipers use an advanced high-temperature Teflon™ polyester coating process to ensure they look great for much longer. Currently available in Stealth Black, Storm Shadow Blue, Luminous Yellow and Racing Red
  • Fully-floating 355x32mm two-piece discs that allow the outer ring to expand freely in response to heat (this reduces stress which in turn extends disc life and reduces the tendency for disc cracking during extreme use)
  • Drive bobbins machined from a single piece of stainless steel giving maximum strength and corrosion resistance (this reduces maintenance requirements and ensures the outer ring continues to float freely over time)
  • Disc rings feature 48 directional internal curved vanes for improved cooling
  • Unique ‘Swept Groove’ slot design for effective evacuation of braking dust and gases whilst ensuring good initial bite on brake application
  • Now featuring the latest thermic black corrosion-resistant finish – the very latest in rust prevention
  • Every EBC 6-piston Apollo Big Brake Kit is supplied with EBC Bluestuff™ NDX pads for the front axle
  • Now road legal in most markets, Bluestuff™ NDX combines excellent cold bite with the capability to perform well in short spells of track/race conditions
  • Every kit is supplied with EBC Brakes’ stainless-steel braided brake lines for the front axle
  • Every hose has a stainless-steel braided exterior that prevents a phenomenon known as ‘ballooning’, this braided exterior prevents the spongey feel of OE rubber lines and provides greater precision and feel under braking
  • Every kit is supplied with 1 litre of BF307+ super DOT 4 brake fluid. This fluid has a 310°C boiling point – a significantly higher boiling point than standard DOT 5.1 fluid
  • Having such a high boiling point gives the braking system exceptional endurance, allowing you to push hard for extended periods without heat soak causing the fluid to boil and resulting in fade
