Light on weight. Long on looks. Our 2-Piece rotors combine the natural advantages of a cast-iron braking surface with the weight savings and rapid heat dissipation of an aluminum hat. Drilled and slotted to keep the swept area cool and clean, our lightweight vented rotors reduce unsprung weight to improve both braking and suspension performance. ECS Tuning 2-Piece rotors are direct bolts on that work with factory and many aftermarket brake components; no mods required.

Reduce weight. Reduce heat. Reduce warping. ECS Tuning engineered 2-Piece semi-floating rotors offer real world benefits that can be felt on both the street and track! Our 2-Piece rotors combine the advantages of weight savings and rapid heat dissipation to provide a rotor superior to stock while preventing warping and extending component life. The reduction of unsprung weight improves handling characteristics under all situations. This reduction in rotational inertia allows for quicker acceleration, decreased braking distances, and more responsive handling.

The BMW Z3 is a favorite to many enthusiast with its smaller lightweight design and high revving M powered engine. The real fun begins when you start installing a few high performance mods to really increase the horse power, but with all that new power there needs to be an upgrade to stop it. ECS Tuning found a way to fit our 2-piece rotors from our M3 CSL kits to your BMW Z3M, increasing the surface area for greater stopping power. The larger rotor increases the brake torque and reduces the fade simply meaning, consistent hard braking.

The E36 M3 is a favorite to many enthusiast with its smaller lightweight design and high revving M powered engine. The real fun begins when you start installing a few high performance mods to really increase the horse power, but with all that new power there needs to be an upgrade to stop it. ECS Tuning found a way to fit our 2-piece rotors from our E46 M3 CSL kits to your E36 M3, increasing the surface area for greater stopping power. The larger rotor increases the brake torque and reduces the fade simply meaning, consistent hard braking.

See and feel the difference with ECS Tuning 2-Piece rotors. Lightweight aluminum hats paired with cross-drilled and slotted cast-iron friction provide the best of both worlds in braking performance. Aluminum reduces inertial mass, improving steering feel, acceleration, and deceleration. Cast iron has immense thermal capacities and great wear characteristics. 2-Piece semi-floating construction ensures the two materials work together in concert. What does this mean? Traffic-stopping looks and fade-free stops, every time.

This AERO Package brought to you by ECS Tuning is modeled after the iconic Golf R400 concept that debuted at the 2014 Beijing Auto Show. Although the aggressive bodywork of that concept car may not make it to Volkswagen showrooms, you can still sport it on your MK7! The R400 AERO Package is made from high-quality polyurethane just like your factory bumpers for durability and flexibility. It comes primed in grey and is ready to be painted. The front bumper is not designed to support fog lights without custom modifications.

The hard bends in the stock hose always end up cracking and leaking, but since the water pump thermostat assembly is tucked up above the subframe, it can be difficult to pinpoint the leak. When you upgrade your OE rubber hose to the ECS aluminized silicone hose, you don't just get a longer lasting, more flexible hose, but also one that's better suited to withstand high underhood temperatures. We use silicone because of its more pliable nature as well as its resistance to heat. The next step was wrapping it with aluminum to offer further protection from the exhaust system.

The VW MK5/MK6/MK7 and Audi TT/A3 platforms are exceptional cars for enthusiasts. As these cars age, it is important to address those maintenance concerns from worn and degraded parts, especially if you are modifying your car for performance. Unfortunately, this often requires new bushings and suspension components that need special tools to service at home. We would like to introduce an easier solution to tackle maintenance, improve your suspension, and do it all at home. Brand new from ECS Tuning are the ECS Polyurethane Rear Control Arm Bushing Kits for your Volkswagen or Audi.

These 15mm thick plates were CAD designed using simulation to maximize stiffness, and precision CNC machined from billet 6061-T6 aluminum then black anodized for a perfect fit and exceptional corrosion resistance. Sets include proprietary chromoly, heat treated, and nickel plated steel fastening nuts to give our plates the ultimate look and protection.

If you live in an apartment or you can't get your car up on ramps or stands but want to change your oil, then this is exactly what you need. This tool enables you to drain from the dipstick tube and refill like normal, without getting under the car or fighting with drain plugs. Not only is it convenient it's also efficient: most cars leave oil in the pan when being drained from the plug—sometimes up to a half quart. The extractor, however, can reach this remaining broken down fluid to make room for even more uncontaminated lubricant. Extract the extra work from the job.

Your Porsche is the best multi-tasking vehicle ever designed. Able to seamlessly transition from a daily driver to a weekend toy, all the way to a full-on track car, the Porsche Carrera platform has been dubbed as the ‘everyday supercar’ for good reason.

Rennline now offers interior upgrades, like the Track Mats and 4-piece Pedal Sets, that allow you to easily modify your interior for a more performance-oriented feel. Protect your interior and improve your driving experience with new Rennline products for your Porsche.

When attending to your vehicle's ignition system, the best approach is to replace as many system components as possible at the same time. Doing so allows each part to wear evenly over time, maintaining an accurate service schedule. ECS assembled Ignition Service Kits are conveniently bundled sets of six spark plugs and sixteen ignition coil wires, allowing you to take care of these critical limited-life parts in a single servicing. Misfires, poor idling, and general poor engine performance can be remedied with one of two kits.
