Carbotech RP2 Rear Brake Pads for the 2022+ Toyota GR86 models.
Carbotech brakes utilize a Ceramic Kevlar and metallic construction in a range of compounds that out-perform competitive brakes. Carbotech brakes are made from compounds that offer higher initial bite, torque and fade resistance—providing consistent brake modulation and performance over a wide range of operating temperatures.
Toyota GR86 models come with either base (floating-style) calipers or Brembo (fixed-style) calipers. Please select the correct caliper type before adding to cart.
In addition, Carbotech brakes are rotor-friendly, saving money and keeping your vehicle out of the service shop far longer than the competition.
- Assured stopping power
- Increased overall performance and handling
- Excellent modulation and release characteristics
- Better control when entering the corners
- Longer brake pad and rotor life—up to four times longer than the competition!
- Non-corrosive dust for ease of wheel cleaning
The RP2™ compound was engineered for endurance racing based on our highly successful XP™ Series formulations. RP2™ has a strong initial bite, a little less modulation than our XP12™, but still maintains the rotor friendliness of our XP™ series compounds. RP2™ has great fade resistance with a temperature range of 250°F to 1450°F+ (121°C to 787°C). RP2™ is as rotor friendly as our XP™ series compounds.
NOT FOR STREET USE!
Bed-In Process:
All new brake pads require a bedding process. The proper way to bed your brake pads and brake discs (rotors) is to bed them on the racetrack, NOT on the street. Start this process by pumping your brakes a few times to ensure proper installation. Once on track, perform several moderate (medium) near stops (to a very slow rolling speed) to thoroughly warm up the pads and rotors. This should take 1-2 laps. This allows a thin layer of the pad material to be transferred into the micro-grooves of the rotor.
After the pads/rotors are warm, perform a series of hard near stops (to a slow rolling speed) until some brake fade is felt. This process should take about 2-4 laps (depending on the track). Once this occurs, then stay off the brakes (as much as possible) and bring your car into the pits/paddock to completely cool. Do not lock the tires during this operation.
Allow brake pads and/or rotors cool down to ambient temperatures; no less than 30 minutes. The total bedding procedure should not take more than 5-6 laps or about 10-15 minutes. Failure to properly bed in your pads could cause friction material to chunk and break up, resulting in poor pad performance and pad life. Improper bedding can also lead to overheating your pads and causing them to glaze over, resulting in the car not being able to stop or slow properly.
