  • STOPTECH Brake System – Volkswagen Golf VII based cars

    Stoptech now offers uncompromising big brake systems for Volkswagen Golf VII based cars. Most of Stoptech exchange braking systems have a technical components MOT certificate.

    The new STOPTECH One-Piece-BBK-brake offers about 5 meters less of brake path, reached by use of 328 x 25 mm slotted or perforated one piece brake discs, 4-piston fix brake caliper, steel flex pipes and adequate brake pads.

    The price for the braking system is €1,490 plus €189 Euro for mounting, including professional running-in.
    A test over 10 braking actions of two Golf VII-GTI high performance vehicles, each one with KW coilovers, 19” aluminum rims and equal tires in head-to-head record – the one with serial braking system, the other one with one-piece Stoptech brake – has shown the following measuring results as presented in the following overview for wet and dry lane:
