These kits offer superlative performance for both normal driving and demanding track day sessions.

DESCRIPTION

The CP9660 and CP9668 calipers share many similarities, including a close visual resemblance. Both are forged, two-piece designs with a removable bridge for quick and simple pad changes. They share the same ventilated stainless steel, domed-back pistons with anti-knockback springs, and high temperature, low drag internal piston seals. Piston bore sizes are the same (27mm x 2, 31.8mm x 2, 38.1mm x 2) and both calipers have a hard anodized finish. They also feature internal fluid porting that eliminates an external fluid crossover pipe, and they each have only two inner, and no outer, bleed screws. The two designs also use the same pad backing plate shape, and share the same 180mm mounting centres and 42mm mounting offset on the inner caliper halves. They run on discs of similar size, but that's where the two designs diverge a bit :

The primary difference between the CP9660 and CP9668 is width.Even though the mounting offset on both calipers is the same (making them interchangeable on the same disc), both halves of the CP9660 are narrower than those of the CP9668. When installed on the same disc as the CP9660, the CP9668 will sit 11mm further inboard, while also extending 14mm further outward towards the wheel spokes.

The additional width of the CP9668 increases unsprung weight but was implemented to allow for a thicker brake pad to extend pad life. The CP9668 leverages a 25mm thick pad, while the CP9660 accepts an 18mm thick pad (standard OEM pads approx. 12mm).

Essex Designed Pad Tension Blocks are precision machined from billet aluminium, hard anodized, and topped with a heat-treated stainless steel spring. These anti-rattle blocks install in place of the original pad retention blocks in AP Racing's CP9660/CP9668 calipers. They place a small amount of tension on the top of the pad, substantially decreasing its movement inside the caliper. Included in each Pad Tension Kit are four pad tension blocks, which is enough for two AP Racing calipers.
