Description
The Audi 2008–2017 A5 platform can place very different demands on its brakes once it moves beyond casual street use. This Brembo front package is built for that next level of duty.
Hardware summary
Brembo GT-R systems sit above the conventional GT range, emphasizing lighter, higher-spec hardware and stronger track-focused capability for drivers who repeatedly work the brakes hard.
- Axle: Front
- Brembo family: GT-R
- Catalog specification: 6-Piston; 380x34mm 2-Piece
Where this kit earns its keep
The underlying chassis is a performance-oriented chassis where improved heat capacity, pedal consistency, and repeatable braking are valuable during demanding street or track driving. A correctly sized Brembo system gives the driver more margin when braking zones are repeated and tire grip or vehicle speed has increased beyond stock use.
Who benefits most
Best suited to advanced HPDE, time-attack, and heavily modified street/track cars where repeated high-speed braking and lower component mass are meaningful priorities.
Available configurations
- Rotor Style: Type 3 Slotted, Type 1 Slotted
- Caliper Finish: Nickel
The available slotted configuration is oriented toward drivers who value an active friction surface during repeated performance use.
