DBA T3 4000 Series Single Front Slotted Brake Rotor

Part #: DBA4654S-10

Overview

The DBA T3 4000 Series Single Front Slotted Brake Rotor is engineered for high-performance braking in both street and track environments. Designed for Subaru STi models from 2004 to 2014 and the 2017 BRZ, this rotor combines advanced materials and innovative design to deliver superior heat management, durability, and consistent braking response. Whether you're a spirited driver seeking enhanced stopping power or a track enthusiast pushing your vehicle to its limits, this rotor helps optimize your vehicle’s braking performance while maintaining reliability and longevity. Constructed with DBA’s exclusive XG150 high-carbon alloyed iron, these rotors are built to withstand extreme heat without warping or degradation. The TSP (Thermal Stability Process) treatment further enhances thermal resistance, ensuring consistent performance under demanding conditions. The unique Kangaroo Paw ventilation system promotes excellent heat dissipation, reducing brake fade during intense driving sessions. The slotted design not only improves pad bite and debris removal but also dampens vibrations, resulting in a smoother, more responsive braking feel.

Key Features

This rotor features a precision-machined surface with a durable slotted pattern designed to enhance braking response and pad life. The high-carbon alloy construction provides increased strength and thermal stability, making it ideal for aggressive driving. The TSP process ensures the rotor maintains its structural integrity under high temperatures, while the Kangaroo Paw ventilation system maximizes cooling efficiency. The slotted design helps manage brake dust and water, maintaining optimal contact between pad and rotor for consistent stopping power. Its direct bolt-on fitment simplifies installation, making it a practical upgrade for performance-minded drivers.

Construction & Design

The rotor’s high-carbon alloyed iron core is engineered for maximum heat resistance and durability. The slotted surface pattern is precisely machined to ensure uniform contact and effective debris removal. The Kangaroo Paw ventilation channels are integrated into the rotor core, providing enhanced airflow and cooling during heavy braking.

Driving Feel & Feedback

The slotted design and high-quality materials work together to deliver a responsive and predictable braking experience. Drivers will notice improved pedal feel and reduced brake fade, especially during spirited driving or track use. The vibration-dampening slot pattern contributes to a smoother braking response, enhancing driver confidence.

Installation & Fitment

This rotor is designed as a direct replacement for the original equipment on specified Subaru STi and BRZ models. Proper installation requires standard hand tools and should be performed by a qualified technician to ensure optimal performance and safety.

What’s Included

The package includes one front slotted brake rotor, ready for installation. Hardware or additional components are not included and should be verified against your vehicle’s requirements.
