3. Nissan Z (RZ34) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nissan_Z_(RZ34)

   Carbon-fiber driveshaft of the standard Z is replaced by a steel driveshaft. In case of suspension upgrades, stiffer bushings, mounting points and larger dampers were added to the Z Nismo. Its upgraded brakes featured larger 4-piston calipers, 15.0-inch brake rotors in the front and 13.8-inch rotors in the rear, clamped by a heavy-duty brake pad.

4. Disc brake - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disc_brake

   A disc brake is a type of brake that uses the calipers to squeeze pairs of pads against a disc (sometimes called a [brake] rotor) [1] to create friction. [2] There are two basic types of brake pad friction mechanisms: abrasive friction and adherent [ further explanation needed ] friction. [ 3 ]

5. Brake pad - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake_pad

   Brake pads convert the kinetic energy of a vehicle to thermal energy through friction. Two brake pads are contained in the brake with their friction surfaces facing the rotor. [1] When the brakes are hydraulically applied, the caliper clamps or squeezes the two pads together onto the spinning rotor to slow and stop the vehicle.

7. Motorcycle braking systems - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motorcycle_braking_systems

   Larger rotors can be used to increase braking force, but this also increases weight and inertia. To overcome this brake manufacturers developed calipers four, six and even eight pistons. [14] Increasing the number of pistons increases the swept piston area, allowing for longer, narrower brake pads and smaller discs.
