6-Piston Forged Aluminum Caliper

The Ksport SuperComp Big Brake Kit offers the ultimate in stopping power, integrating advanced brake technology to significantly reduce brake fade and continuously refresh the brake pad surface. The extreme lightweight SuperComp caliper is machined from aircraft-quality billet aluminum and features a differential bore configuration with larger pistons than Ksport's ProComp calipers. It includes aluminum pistons for better heat resistance, high-temperature seals, and stainless steel brake pad wear plates. The opposed piston design enhances pad wear and caliper rigidity compared to OEM systems, while D.O.T. compliant stainless-steel braided brake lines improve pedal response and feel by preventing expansion under pressure. This system comes standard with a 2-piece floating disc assembly, which reduces rotating and unsprung weight. The floating disc design also prevents thermal stresses from warping the disc or cupping the braking surface. Buyers can choose between cross-drilled rotors, recommended for daily-driven vehicles due to cooler operation, or slotted rotors, recommended for more track-focused use. The unique slot design on the rotors reduces braking noise and expels gas and pad debris more efficiently. Ksport Big Brake kits are built to order, with an estimated production and delivery time of 4-6 weeks. Fitment is available for the 1996-2003 Audi A3, and the product listing encourages users to confirm fitment with the provided search tool. It is crucial to verify compatibility, as fitment issues can lead to restocking fees unless the mistake is on the seller's part or a fitment recommendation from their sales team proves incorrect.
