Alcon CAR89 "Motorsport" 6-Piston Front Brake Calipers (Pair) - 27.0/31.8/38.1mm Pistons - Universal
The Alcon CAR89 "Motorsport" is a race-spec 6-piston radial-mount caliper machined from billet aerospace-grade aluminium. This version runs 27.0 / 31.8 / 38.1mm staggered stainless steel pistons, and it is the caliper we supply in the CAR89 "Motorsport" option of our Alcon front big brake kits. Anti-knockback springs, hard stainless wear plates and a bolted pad retainer give a stiff caliper and a consistent pedal under repeated heavy stops. It has no dust boots, so it is built for track and competition cars.
Choose leading or trailing orientation to suit your brackets. Also available with larger 30.2 / 34.9 / 38.1mm pistons. If your car is road-registered, the CAR89 "TA6" keeps high-temperature dust seals and can be engineered for road use.
Note: Sold as a pair (left and right). Needs brackets and rotors to suit your car. Installation by a professional is recommended.
