This product line combines carbon fiber ceramic friction material with advanced design features such as slots and chamfered edges to provide smooth braking, reduced dust, and quieter operation. The inclusion of a mechanical pad wear sensor and all necessary hardware ensures a straightforward upgrade for your Toyota MR2 or MR2 Spyder's rear braking system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Details and Benefits\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese disc brake pads are engineered with a carbon fiber ceramic friction material composition that balances performance and longevity. The slotted design helps dissipate heat and gases generated during braking, while chamfered edges minimize noise and vibration. Both outer and inner pads have substantial friction material thicknesses (14.9 mm and 15.4 mm respectively), contributing to extended pad life. The mechanical pad wear sensor included allows for easy monitoring of pad condition, helping prevent unexpected brake issues. Additionally, the kit includes mounting hardware, pad shims, and brake lubricant to facilitate proper installation and optimal brake system function.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon Applications and Issues Addressed\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplacement of worn or damaged rear brake pads on Toyota MR2 and MR2 Spyder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReducing brake noise and vibration during daily driving\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproving brake pad lifespan with durable carbon fiber ceramic material\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaintaining consistent braking performance under normal driving conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnsuring timely brake maintenance with included mechanical wear sensor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes and Tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation of the Power Stop Z23-657 rear brake pads is straightforward with the included mounting hardware, pad shims, and brake lubricant.
