Tesla Model 3 Stage 4 Complete Carbon Ceramic Brake System

Stage 3 fits carbon ceramic rotors up front and keeps iron-compatible PFC pads at the rear. Stage 4 goes full carbon ceramic at both axles, adding a matching rear big brake kit with 15-inch floating rotors to the 15.5-inch fronts. That balances the car front to rear for the hardest use. If you already run Stage 3 and want the complete system, Stage 4 is the top tier.

The rear assembly is about 9.5 percent lighter than the factory setup, roughly 2.7 pounds saved per corner once hardware is counted. That comes even though you move from the small 13-inch stock rear rotor up to a giant 15-inch carbon ceramic floating rotor. Less unsprung mass sharpens how the chassis reacts, and the bigger effective radius multiplies braking torque and steadies the car under heavy deceleration.

Yes, the rear carbon ceramic rotors require 20-inch or larger wheels, and that requirement governs the whole build even though the front kit itself clears many 19-inch wheels. There is no way around it on the complete system because of the rear rotor diameter. Before ordering, confirm your exact wheels with us so there are no surprises when the kit arrives. Larger UP forged wheel packages cover this cleanly.

Yes. The Carbon Ceramic Rear Big Brake Kit is engineered to preserve the OEM electronic parking brake and stability-control functions, so the car behaves normally in daily use and keeps its safety systems intact. That is a real concern with rear big brake conversions, and it is handled here. You get race-grade rear hardware without giving up the everyday functions you rely on in traffic and on hills.

Red only. Unlike the Stage 2 and Stage 3 kits, which offer red or black, the complete Stage 4 system is offered exclusively with red calipers front and rear. It carries the SKU UP-M3-BRK-P4-RED. Red against the massive carbon ceramic rotors is a deliberate look, the visual signature of the most capable brake package we build for the Model 3.

For occasional track days, Stage 2 or Stage 3 usually covers you, and both cost far less. Stage 4 is built for drivers who run long sessions, chase personal bests, and trim regen back to manage heat, where full carbon ceramic at both axles resists fade lap after lap. It is also the choice if you simply want the most capable and impressive brake setup available. Buy it for how you actually use the car.

It fits all Model 3 variants from 2017 to present, including the 2024 refresh, in RWD, Long Range, and Performance. The carbon ceramic hardware is common across the range. The one hard constraint is wheel size, since the rear rotors need 20-inch or larger wheels regardless of model year. An early Long Range and a current Performance both take the same complete system.

Carbon ceramic friction material has high thermal capacity and low thermal conductivity, so it absorbs enormous heat while keeping braking torque consistent and reducing pad wear at high temperatures. Iron rotors reach a point on extended runs where they heat-soak and the pedal goes long. With 15.5-inch front and 15-inch rear rotors, Stage 4 holds firm, precise pedal feel deep into sessions that would cook a smaller iron system.

Yes. Professional installation and a high-temperature brake bleed are required for this system, and our team handles both, along with pad and setup guidance if you race. We recommend Motul RBF 660 or Endless RF 650 fluid. Because carbon ceramic hardware and the rear conversion are involved, this is not a driveway job. Track-driven cars should have the fluid serviced more often as it absorbs moisture.

The complete system carries the SKU UP-M3-BRK-P4-RED and is offered in red calipers only. It is a low-volume, top-tier build, so the page notes ordering now to secure the next available delivery rather than expecting immediate stock. Because it involves carbon ceramic hardware at both axles and a rear conversion, plan the purchase around that build time, and confirm your 20-inch or larger wheels with us up front so the kit is right when it arrives.

Tesla’s warranty covers factory-installed parts, but it does not automatically void your warranty if you install aftermarket components like Unplugged Performance brake kits. Under U.S. law (Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act), Tesla must prove that an aftermarket part caused a failure in order to deny warranty coverage. Our parts are engineered to work harmoniously with Tesla OEM Brake systems and can be professionally installed by Unplugged Performance in Hawthorne, CA or by an authorized installer to minimize risk. That said, any damage directly caused by misuse or improper installation may not be covered. We recommend retaining all factory parts so you can revert to stock if needed. Many Tesla owners enjoy peace of mind by using Unplugged Performance products, which are extensively tested and installed by certified professionals. If warranty concerns are top-of-mind, our team can help clarify compatibility and installation best practices to ensure a worry-free experience.

Unplugged Performance offers a comprehensive warranty on all parts and installations performed by our certified technicians. Warranty coverage applies to defects in materials and workmanship on items including lowering springs, coilovers, big brake kits, brake pads, stainless steel brake lines, shocks, and more. Should any covered part fail under normal use or display premature wear, we will repair or replace it at no additional cost—assuming the component was installed by us or at one of our authorized partners.

This warranty is valid for 2 years or 24,000 miles, whichever comes first, excluding consumable products like brake pads, rotors, and tires, starting from the installation date. Coverage extends to labor for warranty repairs when performed by Unplugged Performance or an authorized installer. It does not cover damage resulting from misuse, accidents, off‑road use, improper installation not done by us, or modifications that aren’t factory-approved.

To file a warranty claim, simply contact our service team. We’ll guide you through inspection, shipping (if needed), and repair or replacement logistics. transparencia and top-tier support are what you can expect from Unplugged.

Installing aftermarket parts does not automatically void your Tesla warranty. Under the Magnusson-Moss Warranty Act (www.sema.org/sema-enews/2011/01/ftc-validates-right-to-install-aftermarket-parts), a manufacturer cannot void your warranty simply because you installed aftermarket parts. Tesla must prove that the aftermarket part caused the specific failure in question to deny a warranty claim. UP recommends retaining all factory parts to allow reverting to stock if needed.
