Version 4 Hat/Rotor combo FRONT

DESCRIPTION

This is our Version 4 Disc Brakes Australia hat and rotor combo made to our big brake kit spec...it fits ONLY our big brake kit. Price is ONE hat/rotor....but you should order at least a pair so we can send you a matched left and right set. This is a great choice for owners of versions 1, 2, and 3 looking to upgrade to the best rotor and hat combo available for our big brake kit.

Our Version 4 Miata Big Brake Kit goes another step and uses four DBA5000 rotors with Alumalite center hats made from light weight aircraft grade aluminum connected to directional slotted rotors with NAS bolts and lock nuts. The version 4 rotors use DBA's patented "Kangaroo Paw" ventilation technology. 'Kangaroo Paw' is a patented hi-tech disc rotor ventilation system, designed and manufactured by Disc Brakes Australia for Good-Win Racing LLC. The Kangaroo Paw design features a series of 144 diamond and tear drop shaped pillars and columns, individually spaced between the rotor faces. This system provides two key advantages. One advantage of this design is the ability to cool the rotor faster than ever before. This works on the same principal as an air-impeller, designed to extract hot air. As the disc rotor rotates, aerodynamic turbulence around the individual pillars and columns is generated, increasing the force of hot-air out from within the internal areas of the rotor. The second advantage is the increased dimensional stability across the disc rotor, directly achieved by the individually spaced pillars and columns.

These advantages of better cooling and better surface stability increase the disc rotor efficiency by as much as 20 per cent when compared to conventional rotor designs. A 20 per cent increase in disc rotor efficiency, directly translates to reduced brake operating temperatures, brake fade, disc rotor stresses, disc thickness variation, run-out and shudder. The bottom line is that these rotors usually last our track users three or four times longer than the rotors in our version 1 and 2 kits (thus, the greater entry cost is paid back several times in rotor replacement savings with many of our track customers reporting years of track use on one set of these rotors.).

These custom rotors also feature DBA's Thermal Stability Profiling (TSP). A bonus feature is Thermo-Graphic paint markings (see above picture)that indicate the peak temperature range you reached on track (which helps you fine tune your pad selection). Also, DBA's AlumaLite hats provide the greatest resistance to distortion for uniform disc expansion and added thermal protection for your bearings. Fits all years, all versions of the FRONT of the Good-Win Racing Miata Big Brake Kit.
