Overview
The Power Stop KC2071 is a front 1-Click caliper kit that supplies drilled and slotted vented rotors, red powder coated calipers and Z23 pads together.
Rather than sourcing rotors, calipers and pads separately, KC2071 combines them in one kit. Its contents are cross-drilled and slotted rotors, red calipers and Z23 Evolution Sport Carbon Fiber and Ceramic pads.
The calipers are remanufactured, lubricated and pressure tested in Chicago, IL. The pads are designed for more bite than many other brands while staying quiet and clean. The kit is a direct fit for the front axle with vented rotors and a natural color.
Kits like this suit owners who want a matched set rather than sourcing each part. The kit covers the front axle with vented rotors. Before ordering, confirm fit for your vehicle’s year, model and trim, and do not assume fit from similar kits.

Pad compounds and noise
Brake pad compounds trade off between stopping power, noise, dust and rotor wear. Ceramic-based pads generally run quieter when cold and leave less visible dust on the wheels, while metallic formulas tend to grip harder and wear rotors faster. Carbon and ceramic blends try to balance these traits, so the right choice depends on how the vehicle is driven.
Whatever the compound, new pads need a short bedding procedure before they reach full performance. Make several moderate stops from moderate speed, then let the brakes cool before heavy use. Check the pad surface and rotor finish after the first few hundred miles, and replace any pad that is glazed or unevenly worn.
- Choose a compound that matches your normal driving
- Bed in new pads before towing or hard use
- Check rotors for glazing during each pad change

Installation notes
