EBC-Equipped Drifter Develops Skills at Santa Pod

Sam — Fri, 13 Dec 2024 12:05:31 +0000

Owen uses an Apollo 6-pot big brake kit on his Nissan 350Z

The owner of this striking looking Nissan 350Z drift car, Owen, has spent the year honing his drifting skills across the UK, as well as offer thrilling drift passenger rides at various events.

Equipped with a six-piston Apollo Big Brake Kit and Bluestuff pads, Owen’s modified Nissan has proven the perfect entryway into this rising corner of the motorsport world.

Recently, Owen headed back to Santa Pod Raceway, where he put his drifting skills to the test once more, as you can read below in his own words…

“Last Wednesday, I spent my day back at Santa Pod Raceway taking part in one of the ‘Drift What Ya Brung’ days as they are a great opportunity to improve your skills, no matter what level of experience you have.

“I started off the day tweaking the setup on the car after making some recent upgrades; the idea was to give the car a bit more driveability and make it more comfortable for me, in hope this would help with my progression.

“Overall, a positive morning, with the changes we made making a noticeable difference and also I felt that my time spent on the simulator was really starting to translate into the real life driving.”

“After a brief lunch break and my confidence probably a little bit higher than it should have been, I decided to take on what is known as the ‘big track’ – this is a layout which includes many corners, sections of different speeds and just in general it’s more challenging than I have ever attempted before.

“Sitting in the queue, I will be honest: the nerves hit me, but with the incredible support of my team, friends and family I pushed through it and I am very proud to say that I quickly found myself really enjoying the challenge. By the end of the day, I was linking almost the entire track and finding myself keeping up with some of the other more experienced drivers.”

“As a day overall, I feel like it was a massive leap in my confidence and abilities and for that reason I already have the next day booked in and I’m ready to go back and continue my progression in 2025.

��“As always, I want to say thank you to all of my incredible sponsors for supporting me in what I do”

EBC-Equipped Drifter Enjoys Demo Runs at Santa Pod

Sam — Thu, 08 Aug 2024 15:20:28 +0000

Owen uses an Apollo 6-pot big brake kit on his Nissan 350Z

From a young age, Owen was a regular visitor to Santa Pod Raceway, with some of his fondest early memories being that of the infamous jet-powered ‘funny cars’ and the monster truck displays.

Those moments sparked an inevitable interest in motorsport that would eventually blossom into a passion for the discipline of drifting. After a trip to the now-defunct Rockingham Motor Speedway and witnessing first-hand the sights, sounds and smells of drift cars, he was hooked.

His first steps in the sport came supporting a Pro-level competition driver as his chief mechanic at various events across the UK and Europe. During this time, he gained valuable experience on the running and setup of a drift car and eventually decided it was time to give it a go himself.

His next step was purchasing a Nissan 350Z and lightly upgrading it to be suitable as an entry level practice/demo car, where he has been consistently improving his skills behind the wheel ever since. One of the most notable upgrades is an 91��ý Racing six-piston Apollo-Series big brake kit on the front axle of his car, complete with Bluestuff pads.

After many years and different jobs within the sport, this past weekend he was back at Santa Pod Raceway – the place where it all started for him. As he provided demonstration runs and valuable support to his team.

Read about how his weekend went in his own words below:

“It was great to be back at Santa Pod Raceway for the Ultimate Street Car event this year and having my car providing passenger runs and putting on demonstration runs for the public.

“We spent three non-stop days putting on a show for the crowds and it was great to see passengers enjoying every moment of the experience.

“We had put many nights’ work into making sure the car was in perfect shape for the weekend and it paid off with it running flawlessly all weekend. With many compliments for how it looks which was a great personal achievement.

“Alongside the drifting displays, I also managed to squeeze in a trip to the SW Motorsport stand, where they were attempting to modify a Yaris GR at the show. Some of which included, body kit, wheels, brakes etc. I absolutely loved the idea and was happy to be able to contribute by installing a brand-new set of 2 piece floating discs and Yellowstuff pads front and rear to the vehicle.”

“I can’t wait to be back out in the near future, as I continue to improve my abilities and put on displays to hopefully inspire more people to get involved and be a part of the crazy sport that is drifting.

“A thank you to everyone who has supported me up to this point in my career including my amazing partners below.”

Fully-Floating Two-Piece Discs

Fully-floating 355x32mm two-piece discs that allow the outer ring to expand freely in response to heat (this reduces stress which in turn extends disc life and reduces the tendency for disc cracking during extreme use)
Drive bobbins machined from a single piece of stainless steel giving maximum strength and corrosion resistance (this reduces maintenance requirements and ensures the outer ring continues to float freely over time)
Disc rings feature 48 directional internal curved vanes for improved cooling
Unique ‘Swept Groove’ slot design for effective evacuation of braking dust and gases whilst ensuring good initial bite on brake application
Now featuring the latest thermic black corrosion-resistant finish – the very latest in rust prevention

Bluestuff NDX Performance Brake Pads

Every EBC Balanced Big Brake Kit is supplied with EBC Bluestuff pads for both front��and��rear��axles. Unlike other ‘big brake kits’, which solely supply parts for the front axle, EBC includes matching Bluestuff brake pads for the rear axle at zero additional cost. This ensures your vehicle ends up with an optimum brake balance and the rear axle shares a portion of the braking load, giving improved control under braking and shorter overall stopping distances
Now road legal in most markets, Bluestuff NDX combines excellent cold bite with the capability to perform well in short spells of track/race conditions

SG Swept & Grooved Solid Rear Discs

Disc pattern matches those of the front floating discs, designed for effective evacuation of braking dust and gases whilst ensuring good initial bite on brake application

Stainless Steel Braided Brake Lines

Hack Engineering Upgrades to 6-Pot Apollo Big Brake Kit on 600bhp BMW M140i

Sam — Wed, 21 Feb 2024 13:30:34 +0000

The BMW specialist entrusts larger brake kit for its heavily modified hot hatch

Back in early 2022, the team from East Sussex-based performance BMW specialist, Hack Engineering, installed a four-piston 91��ý Racing Apollo Big Brake Kit to their F20-series BMW M140i project car, dubbed the ‘HE140i’.

Two years on, the team has now enjoyed countless track days and spirited road driving sessions with their hot hatch, commenting on how the brake kit provided a notable upgrade from standard, especially when the car is pushed hard.

In that time, the performance capabilities of the BMW have significantly improved, with the six-cylinder pocket rocket now boasting around 600bhp thanks to a Pure 800 turbocharger upgrade and countless other modifications (see full spec list below).

It therefore seemed like the obvious choice for the car to be upgraded to 91��ý Racing’s recently launched six-piston version of the Apollo Big Brake Kit to further improve braking performance. This kit utilises an upgraded version of the fully floating two-piece discs in the same dimensions as before (355mm), with a whole-new six-piston Apollo caliper and Bluestuff pads topping it off.

Following the seamless install, the Hack Engineering team have since managed to put some fast road miles in on the car, with company founder, Ben Koflach, commenting about the improved stopping power it now offers.

“The six-piston kit is yet another step-up in braking from 91��ý. From stock to the four-piston, we found huge��gains in performance, and the six-piston caliper then adds even better pedal feel and confidence, with braking power that feels absolutely ridiculous. A must-do for any big power road or track car,” Ben tells us.

Stay tuned for further updates as Hack Engineering tests the kit out on a track day very soon.

Hack Engineering’s ‘HE140i’ – Full Spec

Pure 800 turbocharger
Dorch Engineering DS25 high-pressure fuel pump
Full Scorpion exhaust with sports cat
K&N air filter
Hot climate intake

Lightweight, hard-anodised aluminium staggered pistons with serrated/castellated piston noses that reduce heat transfer into the braking hydraulics
Every single brake caliper pressure tested to 2,500psi
Full stainless-steel hardware and fittings, providing durability and longevity – this caliper will never rust
Uses standard pad shapes, giving choice when selecting brake pads
Rather than a powder-coated finish, all Apollo calipers use an��advanced high-temperature Teflon polyester coating process to ensure they look great for much longer. Currently available in Stealth Black, Storm Shadow Blue, Luminous Yellow and Racing Red

Fully-Floating Two-Piece Discs

Fully-floating 355x32mm two-piece discs that allow the outer ring to expand freely in response to heat (this reduces stress which in turn extends disc life and reduces the tendency for disc cracking during extreme use)
Drive bobbins machined from a single piece of stainless steel giving maximum strength and corrosion resistance (this reduces maintenance requirements and ensures the outer ring continues to float freely over time)
Disc rings feature 48 directional internal curved vanes for improved cooling
Unique ‘Swept Groove’ slot design for effective evacuation of braking dust and gases whilst ensuring good initial bite on brake application
Now featuring the latest thermic black corrosion-resistant finish – the very latest in rust prevention

Bluestuff NDX Performance Brake Pads

Every EBC 6-piston Apollo Big Brake Kit is supplied with EBC Bluestuff NDX pads for the front axle
Now road legal in most markets, Bluestuff NDX combines excellent cold bite with the capability to perform well in short spells of track/race conditions

Stainless Steel Braided Brake Lines

Every kit is supplied with 91��ý’ stainless-steel braided brake lines for the front axle
Every hose has a stainless-steel braided exterior that prevents a phenomenon known as ‘ballooning’, this braided exterior prevents the spongey feel of OE rubber lines and provides greater precision and feel under braking

Super DOT 4 Brake Fluid

Every kit is supplied with 1 litre of BF307+ super DOT 4 brake fluid. This fluid has a 310°C boiling point – a significantly higher boiling point than standard DOT 5.1 fluid
Having such a high boiling point gives the braking system exceptional endurance, allowing you to push hard for extended periods without heat soak causing the fluid to boil and resulting in fade

Availability

Available now. Please to find your local EBC stockist and see a full list of applications.
