{"product_id":"ebc-big-brake-kit-bbk052","title":"EBC Apollo Big Brake Kit for Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X | BBK052","description":"\u003ch2\u003eGive your Evo X a brake upgrade worthy of the car\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn Evo X makes a compelling case for investing in the whole driving experience. The EBC Apollo BBK052 road kit combines six-piston front calipers and 355 x 32 mm floating front discs with matching Bluestuff pads at both axles. Rear swept-and-grooved solid discs and braided lines all round make this a particularly comprehensive upgrade for the listed applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKit reference: BBK052. Exact SKUs for every available configuration are listed below.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA balanced road kit with more in the box\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe new front hardware is only part of the value. Matching rear pads work with the original rear calipers, and the rear discs carry a swept-and-grooved pattern to complement the front assembly. Braided lines serve both axles. Up front, the reinforced calipers and floating discs address pedal response and repeated heat, so the package has substance to match its appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe road-kit front discs use drive bobbins machined from single pieces of stainless steel and 48 directional internal curved vanes for cooling. Swept Groove slots help clear braking dust and gases from the contact surface, while the thermic black finish provides corrosion resistance. Those details give the discs a practical role in managing heat and keeping the floating assembly working freely.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCalipers made for the way you use your car\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe road calipers are designed, manufactured and assembled in the UK from heat-treated, low-pressure cast aluminium. Their two-piece bodies use grade 12.9 bridge bolts, with hard-anodised aluminium pistons, stainless-steel bleed nipples and wear plates. The material and construction put substance behind the appearance of the upgrade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExternal dust boots keep road dirt and debris away from the pistons, with high-temperature EPDM fluid seals behind them. A hard-anodised body gives corrosion protection beneath the high-temperature colour coating, while the single pad-retention bolt allows quick pad changes when servicing is due.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoose your kit\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe four painted road configurations share the 355 x 32 mm six-piston front specification and the road-kit components described here. Race competition uses hard-anodised competition calipers and RP-X race pads; its confirmed front hardware is set out separately below.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlack, Blue, Red and Yellow are the painted road-caliper choices, with external dust boots and aluminium pistons. Choose the finish you want to see behind your wheels without changing the kit specification for that version.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRace competition is a different hardware and pad specification: hard-anodised calipers, stainless-steel castellated pistons and RP-X race pads. It is intended for dedicated track and race use, rather than chosen as another paint colour.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRoad-kit front pads: Version 1: Bluestuff.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBluestuff combines cold bite for road use with capability for lighter track work.

Wheel diameter alone does not establish spoke or caliper clearance. Send us your kit choice and wheel details if you need help arranging the check.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy choose a floating disc?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe friction ring can expand independently of its mounting bell as it heats up. That reduces thermal stress during repeated braking and is one of the engineering differences behind a fully floating two-piece kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat changes when I choose Race competition?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou choose hard-anodised competition calipers, stainless-steel castellated pistons and RP-X race pads for dedicated circuit use. The painted road calipers use aluminium pistons and external dust boots. Use the exact SKU table to keep the chosen disc size and caliper configuration together.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat makes this different from changing pads and discs?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA big brake conversion includes new front calipers as well as the discs and pads.
