Caliper Clearance

Most 18” wheels will clear the outer diameter of the caliper on a 355mm kit. However, the more
critical clearance is the gap between the spokes of the wheel and the face of the caliper. Do not
assume a 19, 20 or even 24 inch wheel will clear the face of the caliper.

Wheel Spacers

Wheel spacers can provide extra clearance to the outer face of the caliper. This will also space out the
entire wheel, widening the track width of the vehicle. Fender clearances should be checked on
lowered cars, and longer lug studs or wheel bolts are usually required. Note: The Wheel Industry
Council has issued guidelines advising wheel spacers not be used.

It is the responsibility of the customer to insure wheel spacers are properlyIt is the responsibility of the customer to insure wheel spacers are properly

Brake Vibration - THIS IS IMPORTANT!

The most common cause of brake vibration is improper bedding of pads and rotors or improper
pad selection for the specific driving environment. Rotor runout may also cause vibration, but
precision manufacturing and inspection typically means runout is not an issue. Double disc grind­ing insures the rotor runout is within +/- 0.002” when installed on our aluminum hat and controls
thickness variation within 0.0003”. Under the most extreme conditions, any rotor may warp, but
uneven pad deposition is a more typical vibration cause. If the system is not properly bedded in, or
street pads are run on an open track, uneven pad deposits will occur causing an ever worsening
vibration. Failure to immediately address a pad deposition/vibration issue may lead to permanent
damage of the rotors. Please read and understand the bed-in procedures included with this manual.
If you have any questions, please contact the StopTech Customer Service Department for assistance.

Brake Noise

Certain brake pad compounds make more noise than others. Proper anti-squeal shim plates be­tween the caliper pistons and backing plate of the pad help reduce the problem. Anti-squeal lubri­cants are also available to reduce some of the noise. The reality is, performance pads are more prone
to brake squeal.

Do not assume your wheels will fit. An outline drawing of your StopTech Big
Brake kit is available on our website at http://www.stoptech.com. Measure the
distance from the outer face of your stock caliper to the inner face of your wheel
spokes, or make a template according to the instructions on the website and deter­mine if a wheel spacer may be necessary. DO THIS BEFORE YOU INSTALL
YOUR KIT!

Cleaning of Rotors:Cleaning of Rotors:

Cleaning of Rotors:

Cleaning of Rotors:Cleaning of Rotors:

The AeroRotors supplied with this kit are coated with a water soluable, environmen­tally friendly rust inhibitor. This coating MUST BE WASHED OFF WITH SOAP
AND WATER before installation. Brake cleaner is not as effective as soap and water.
Even if it doesn’t look as if anything is coming off the rotor, the rust inhibitor is there
and must be entirely cleaned. Rotors will quickly rust without protection. If the
rotor is not rusty, it’s still coated. After cleaning, you will see the rotor immediately
start to develop a slight rust color. This is normal and desirable as it indicates all the
rust inhibitor has been removed.

Proper rotor and pad break-in is essential to the performance of your new brake
system. Failure to properly break-in the brakes will seriously impact how well they
work and how long they last. The number one cause of brake vibration is uneven pad
material deposition on the rotor. Proper break-in will greatly minimize such prob­lems.

Follow the break-in procedures listed later in this manual as closely as possible.

If you have any questions about wheel fitment, rotor cleaning or
break-in of a particular pad type, please call our Customer Service
Department @ 310-325-4799 X 105 or you can e-mail directly to

Use an 11mm flare wrench to slightly
loosen the hard line fitting from the stock
brake line.

Switch to an 11mm stubby wrench if available
and remove the rubber line from the hard line.
Place one of the rubber caps over the end of
the hard line. This should effectively control
fluid loss for the duration of the installation.

Remove the caliper with stock brake line
attached. There may be some leakage from
the open end of the brake line, especially if
the pads/pistons on the caliper are retracted.

Remove the stock rotor by first removing the
retaining bolt with a 6mm Allen wrench. It
may be necessary to strike the outer edge with
a non-marring hammer if corrosion prevents
the rotor from simply pulling off. If so, place a
wheel bolt in one of the holes first to prevent
the rotor from falling when it comes loose.

- Determine the left and right side calipers. The calipers are marked on each box. As a

check, the bleed screws always go to the top of the caliper.

Remove the 2 bolts holding the caliper bridge using a 5mm Allen wrench.

Remove the caliper bridge taking note of the direction it is installed in and the correct location of
the pad retaining wire clip, which typically, but not always, stays attached to the bridge.

Bridge Bolts

In order to stiffen the caliper, the
bridge is a snug fit and the bolts
may be tight when removing. Keep
turning bolts gently with pressure
applied in the direction of removal.

After removing the bolts, it may be
necessary to tap the bridge out from
the inside of the caliper with a plas­tic or leather hammer or similar
tool. The handle of a tool works well
for this. With use, the bridge and
bolt will become easier to remove
and install.

Use a 14mm wrench to hold the stainless line
inboard fitting while using the flare wrench to
tighten the hard line fitting.

Note- It may help to have the wheels straight
to access the fittings with the wrenches.

After securing the line, turn the wheels lock­to-lock to make sure the line is not binding
of touching any moving parts of the suspen­sion. Adjust as necessary by re-clocking the
Banjo bolt on the caliper.

Place the stainless steel washer over the
inboard brake line fitting as shown.

Remove the rubber cap from the hard line and
screw the fitting into the new brake line by
hand for a few turns before tightening with an
11mm flare wrench.

The Z8 has a pad wear sensor on the left front and right rear corners. These sensors
can be carefully removed from the stock brake pad and re-inserted into the new pad
in the StopTech ST-40 caliper. You will likely need to re-route the lead wire, which
can typically be ty-wrapped to the new brake line.

Complete installation on both sides of the vehicle before bleeding the system.

Note: The calipers and lines will need to fill with fluid, quickly draining the master cylinder reser­voir. Keep a close watch on the fluid level when initially bleeding the system. Do not allow the
master cylinder reservoir to run dry and draw in air. Doing so may require the brake system to be
serviced by a certified brake technician.

Bleed the brake system using an 11mm wrench on the bleed screws:

- The sequence for bleeding the brakes should be:

1. Right outboard bleed screw

2. Right inboard bleed screw

3. Left outboard bleed screw

4. Left inboard bleed screw

Though a torque wrench is typically NOT used on bleed screws, as a reference, torque for bleed
screws should be

The majority of brake system problems are due to improper installation and/or break-in of the
rotors and pads. By reading and understanding the following, you will avoid the most common
causes of poor brake performance and vibration. FAILURE TO READ AND UNDERSTAND THIS
MAY CAUSE SERIOUS PERMENANT DAMAGE TO YOUR NEW ROTORS.

StopTech coats non-plated AeroRotors with a water soluable, environmentally friendly rust inhibi­tor that MUST be cleaned before use. A non-plated rotor looks like bare metal, plated rotors are
bright silver in color and do not need to be washed. Even though you may not see a change in the
rotor color, if the rotor is not rusty, the rust inhibitor is there. Use soap and water, NOT BRAKE
CLEANER to wash the rotors. A small piece of Scothbrite works well to scrub with. When cleaned
and rinsed properly, the surface of the rotor will immediately show a light rust color which is
normal.

Breaking in rotors and pads is critical to the optimum performance of your new brakes. When
breaking in new parts, you are not only heat cycling the pads, but depositing a layer of pad material
onto the rotor face as well. If not broken in properly, an uneven layer of pad material will be depos-

ited onto the rotor causing vibration.

Typically, a heavy braking street driver will experience approximately 1 to 1.1G’s of deceleration. At
this rate, ABS will be activated on such equipped vehicles. A moderate braking effort is needed to
properly break in rotors and pads. If ABS intervention or lock-up was called 100% brake effort, a
stopping force of approximately 70-80%, just short of ABS intervention or lock-up is a general
estimate of pedal effort you are trying to achieve.

After completeing installation, make a series of 10 stops from 60 to 5-10 MPH. At the end of each
stop, immediately accelerate to 60 again for the next stop. Run all stops in one cycle.

During the 60 to 5-10 MPH series of stops, the exact speed is not critical. Accelerate to appoximately
60 and begin the braking cycle. As you approach 5-10 MPH, it is not necessary to watch the
speedometer, keep your eyes on the road and approximate your speed at the end of each cycle.
DO NOT COME TO A COMPLETE STOP, AS YOU WILL IMPRINT PAD MATERIAL ONTO
THE ROTOR, CAUSING A VIBRATION.

There are several indicators to look for while breaking in the system:

On the 8th or 9th stop, there should be a distinct smell from the brakes. Smoke may be evident after
several stops as well.

Also on the 8th or 9th stop, some friction materials will experience “green fade”. This is a slight
fading of the brakes. The fade will stabilize, but not completely go away until the brakes have
cooled.

After the break-in cycle is finished, there will be a blue tint color on the rotor with a light gray film
on the rotor face. The blue tint indicates the rotor has reached the proper break-in temperature and
the gray film is pad material starting to transfer onto the rotor face. This is normal and good!
