Tesla Model 3 Brake Pads – Competition & Racing Spec

-

For Tesla Model 3 owners that like to frequent the track as much as we do, we have released our Competition & Racing Spec brake pads. Designed to be a “pure racing-style solution”, these Competition brake pads include a include more aggressive, high-friction brake pad compound.

As a result, we do not advise regular use on the street, as users will see accelerated rotor wear, as well as increased noise and dust. Additionally, the race-oriented compound requires heat to provide optimal results. However, on-track performance during Autocross, Time Attack and other, track-specific driving events will greatly benefit from a more track-oriented, aggressive brake pad compound, even with OEM brake rotors.

For even more improved braking performance, we advise you to take a look at our Tesla Model 3 Iron Big Brake Kit (BBK) and Superlight Carbon Ceramic Big Brake Kit options to absolutely optimize your braking performance far greater than just a brake pad upgrade.

Unplugged Performance Tesla Model 3 Competition & Racing spec brake pads are designed to be a “pure” racing-style solution that includes a more aggressive, high-friction brake pad compound. As a result, we do not advise regular use on the street, as users will see accelerated rotor wear, as well as increased noise and dust. Additionally, the race-oriented compound requires heat to provide optimal results. However, on-track performance during Autocross, Time Attack and other, track-specific driving events will greatly benefit from a more track-oriented, aggressive brake pad compound, even with OEM brake rotors.

Simply put, these brake pads offer consistent performance over a very wide operating temperature range, reducing brake fade and offering a great aftermarket solution, perfect for on-track use.

SPECIFICATIONS:

  • Brake pad versions are available for both the factory Model 3 RWD / Dual Motor non-Performance calipers, as well as the factory calipers on the Model 3 Dual Motor Performance
  • Great pedal feel, incredible initial bite, improved heat resistance, and reduced stopping distance (when at proper operating temperatures)
  • Increased noise and dust levels over standard street-oriented or dual-use brake pads
  • Easy installation with no additional modifications or upgrades necessary

      I've just transformed my Cybertruck into an even more formidable beast, and let me tell you, this is the upgrade you didn't know you needed until you see it. The installation was as straightforward as it gets - a quick clean with alcohol, peel off the tape, press, hold, and voilà! It was like...

      Dominic Marcu - Racing Driver perfect! with their help I can have the desired setup for the competition car.
      Dominic M. April 12, 2023
      These springs were the first real mod I’d ever done to my Tesla and I’m so happy with the way they turned out. They really complete the look on my model 3. And I was surprised to find you don’t sacrifice anything in terms of ride comfort by adding them. The only problem is that now that I’ve...

      I really like this rear sway bar on my 2021 Model S Plaid. On the street it tightens up the car a lot. The car corners "flatter" and "feels" like the car has more grip and inspires confidence. I installed this in my driveway with the rear up on jack stands. It wasn't hard at all. I opted for...

      These brakes have been a game changer for the Plaid. It's a bulky 5000lb 1000hp monster and needs brakes that fit the bill. Unfortunately, the stock setup left a lot to be desired especially when climbing towards the higher speeds. At that point, the brake application felt more like a suggestion and...

      This has been one of the best upgrades Ive made to my Plaid. Really makes the car much more stable at high speed, corners better, and there is no loss in comfort even in the stiffest setting.. Very happy with this bar!

      Who likes shredded tires? Nobody! Fix the wonky camber on early Model S vehicles with this easy upgrade.

      I purchased the Camber and Toe arm set for my Tesla Model 3. These arms are well engineered, beautifully crafted and built solid. I highly recommend these products made by Unplugged Performance. The craftsmanship of the product and customer support is second to none. Highly recommended! Link:...

      The "Road Warrior" Curb Guards work as advertised for the most part. I did not find them to be as "protective" as advertised in all the Youtube and promotional videos. Just a day after I installed my Road Warrior wheels, I hit a curb while turning at a slight angle. This damaged the curb guard as...

      I bought my spoiler as soon as my new Model 3 2021was delivered to Vancouver in March 2021. A friend of mine had suggested getting this one specifically and when we added it to my new white Tesla with its dark glass roof-and my extra tinted windows this Black Carbon spoiler added a perfect finishing...
