Tesla Model 3 Brake Pads – Competition & Racing Spec

-

quick product info sheet

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.

Product Details

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

      Tesla Cybertruck Wheel Spacers - 30mm & 50mm  - UP INVINCIBLE®
      I went with the 30mm spacers just to give the Cybertruck a slightly wider stance. These are very well-built. I have put almost 2,000 miles on the truck since installing the spacers and couldn't be happier. The driving dynamic did not change noticeably and I have not noticed a significant reduction...

      Enduro Drive Unit Oil Cooler And Magnetic Filter for Tesla Model 3 and Tesla Model Y
      This definitely helps cool down my drive unit quicker. I'm able to run a hot lap at the track, then a single cooldown lap to bring the drivetrain temperature back into the green. It was awesome seeing it cool down within a lap at Buttonwillow.

      I installed these parts and I am very satisfied. The quality is great, the engines don't heat up anymore and with that magnet I make sure that there are no filings in the engines. A very good investment.

      Incredibly well tuned for the Model 3. My car is completely flat and on rails through every turn. Very firm in all settings yet still just comfortable enough to daily drive in the first 4 clicks with the oil bypass feature. Super easy to adjust back and forth from weekend driving to daily driving....

      Very impressed with this tire and wheel set. I have a blue Model Y and I think that the Satin Asteroid Graphite go really well with my car’s color. I also went with the Yokohama 275/40/20 wide tire set up and they make the ride way more comfortable than before, a perfect addition to my UP comfort...

      I loved upgrading my front brakes to BFB Carbon, after a few track days and realized I want the rear as well, plus now the aesthetics are on point! (look weird with only the front carbon IMO)
