What makes the Brembo GT|R different from the GT and GT|S systems for the Ferrari 550 and 575M?

The GT|R uses a CNC billet aluminum caliper body instead of the cast aluminum construction found in the GT and GT|S. It also features a ventilated stainless steel piston insert, a recessed dust boot, and a Nickel Plated finish for maximum corrosion resistance. Brembo classifies the GT|R as a race-specification caliper that retains Road Car Caliper validation.

Description

Brembo Front Big Brake Kit GT|R System for Ferrari 550 Maranello and 575M Maranello

Brembo’s Front Big Brake Kit GT|R System for the Ferrari 550 Maranello and 575M Maranello is the top tier of the GT lineup, a race-specification brake kit that retains full street ability. Where the GT and GT|S use cast aluminum caliper bodies, the GT|R steps up to CNC billet monobloc construction with a Nickel Plated finish and a ventilated stainless steel piston insert. The result is a caliper with the strength and corrosion resistance of a purpose-built race component, none of the noise or comfort penalties typically associated with a race system, and Brembo’s validation as a Road Car Caliper. It ships as a complete, pre-assembled front axle set with braided stainless lines and all mounting hardware included.

GT|R Billet Monobloc Caliper

The GT|R front kit uses a CNC billet aluminum six-piston monobloc Brembo caliper in a radial mount configuration. Billet construction delivers greater structural rigidity than the GT and GT|S cast calipers, and the ventilated stainless steel piston insert and recessed dust boot are built to handle extreme heat without compromising seal integrity or pedal feel. Available in Nickel Plated only, with a machined Brembo Racing red logo.

Rotor Options: Cross Drilled, Type 1, and Type 3

All three rotor configurations share the same base specifications. Outer diameter is 380mm, width is 34mm, air gap is 14mm, and annulus is 62mm, with a vented curved 48-vane design. Each disc assembly is a two-piece build: an advanced high-carbon alloy iron disc with corrosion-resistant plating mated to a hat, connected through a floating H-Bobbin system with an anti-rattle spring.
Cross Drilled rotors are the street and mild track choice, with the strongest initial bite of the three and reliable wet-weather performance, at the cost of being more prone to thermal cracking under sustained race heat. Type 1 Slotted rotors use Brembo’s straight-slot face pattern and suit drivers who spend more time on track, favoring stable brake feel and thermal resilience with lower wear. Type 3 Slotted rotors are built for competition use, prioritizing maximum initial response and a smooth pedal release at the cost of faster pad and disc wear.

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
