Product Description

The AP Racing Pro 5000R Front Brake Kit (390x36mm) for the Porsche 981 GT4 and 718 GT4 has been developed for fast road, track day and motorsport applications, delivering substantial improvements in braking performance, pedal feel and thermal capacity over the factory braking system. Designed as a direct bolt-on upgrade, the system provides exceptional stopping power and consistency under repeated high-temperature use.

Using large 390x36mm two-piece front discs, lightweight aluminium bells and precision-engineered mounting hardware, the kit substantially improves heat management and braking stability during demanding use. The larger rotor assembly increases braking torque and fade resistance, maintaining consistent performance throughout prolonged track sessions.

Customers can choose between genuine AP Racing discs/rotors or a more cost-effective aftermarket two-piece disc/rotor option. At Clubsport Garage we have extensively tested the aftermarket rotor assemblies on our own F87 M2 Competition track car with excellent results in terms of performance, durability and consistency. Several customers previously running AP Racing rotor assemblies have also moved to the aftermarket setup and reported similarly positive results, making them an attractive option for reducing long-term running costs without compromising braking performance.

AP Racing Pro 5000R calipers do not utilise dust seals. This motorsport-focused design allows reliable operation at significantly higher temperatures than conventional road calipers. Vehicles used regularly on the road may require more frequent inspection and cleaning, particularly during harsh weather conditions.

An optional anti-rattle pad retention spring kit is available separately for customers wanting to minimise brake pad movement and reduce unwanted noise during everyday driving.

Caliper Options
CP9660 Pro 5000R
The standard six-piston forged aluminium caliper, offering exceptional braking performance, pedal feel and thermal management for fast road, track day and motorsport use.

CP9668 Endurance Pro 5000R
An endurance-focused six-piston forged aluminium caliper designed around increased pad volume and improved heat management for prolonged heavy braking. This option is particularly suited to intensive track use, endurance events and customers prioritising reduced pad wear and service intervals.

FAQs

What is the difference between CP9660 and CP9668 calipers?
The CP9660 is the standard six-piston motorsport caliper offering excellent performance across fast road and track use. The CP9668 Endurance caliper features increased pad volume and improved heat management for prolonged heavy braking and endurance-focused applications.

What is the difference between AP Racing and aftermarket disc options?
Both options provide excellent braking performance. The aftermarket disc assemblies have been extensively tested and provide a more cost-effective solution with reduced long-term running costs. Genuine AP Racing discs remain available for customers wanting an OEM AP Racing friction ring setup.

What disc patterns are available?
This kit is supplied exclusively with J-Hook disc patterns, selected for their excellent heat management, braking consistency and durability under track use.

Do the calipers have dust seals?
No. These are motorsport-grade calipers designed for high-temperature track use and therefore do not utilise dust seals.

Are brake pads included?
No. Brake pads are supplied separately so you can choose the compound best suited to your driving style, with options available from Pagid, Endless, PFC and Ferodo.

Is this suitable for track use?
Yes. This system has been designed specifically for repeated heavy braking and prolonged high-temperature operation.
