StopTech Introduces Sport Kit Brake Upgrades for 2013 Scion FR-S
StopTech®, the ultra-performance and racing brand from Centric Parts®, has announced the availability of Sport Kit brake upgrades for the new 2013 Scion FR-S sports car. StopTech Sport Kits provide shorter stopping distances, better brake modulation, firmer pedal feel and less brake fade for stronger, more reliable performance on and off the track.
The StopTech Sport Kits for the 2013 Scion FR-S are available as a 4-wheel kit, or separately as a front axle or rear axle kit. Each axle kit includes a pair of slotted directional Power Slot® rotors, DOT-compliant stainless steel braided Teflon brake lines, and StopTech's highly-praised Street Performance Brake Pads that are good for high performance street and occasional track use.
StopTech Sport Kits represent the most in performance value by providing significant brake performance improvements using direct-replacement (OEM) sized components. StopTech Sport Kits are the easiest way for the enthusiast to upgrade their existing rotors, lines and pads for improved braking performance while retaining the existing factory calipers and wheel fitment. Available for 4-wheel, front axle or rear axle, the Sport Kits simplify the upgrade process by providing complete, pre-matched systems, without the hassle of mixing and matching individual components.
