The 034 Motorsport 390mm x 34mm 2-Piece Floating Front Brake Rotor Upgrade Kit for the Gen 1 & 1.5 Audi R8 is a complete replacement brake rotor and caliper spacer kit designed to work perfectly with the factory brake calipers on the Gen 1 & 1.5 R8. This upgrade kit weighs approximately 10.8kg per rotor and reduces rotating weight by 0.27kg per corner compared to the factory rotors' 11.1kg. This weight-saving design allows the rotors to not only be lighter but also maintain the correct thermal mass to effectively capture and dissipate heat. 72 directionally curved vanes force cool air through the rotor, optimizing heat dissipation and improving overall braking performance. By increasing the diameter of the front rotor, the factory caliper can deliver greater stopping power. This larger front rotor also offers improved cooling capacity compared to the factory rotor, essential for both daily driving and intensive track use. In terms of NVH (noise, vibration, and harshness), user feedback has shown the 034 Motorsport 2-Piece Brake Rotors to transmit zero to low levels of noise into the car's interior. This makes them suitable for both street and race applications, balancing ride comfort and performance. The J-slot design on the rotor aids cleaning of the brake pads and reduces noise compared to traditional drilled rotors, further enhancing the overall driving experience.
