A Brembo GT big brake system built for the Chevrolet 1500 Tahoe / Suburban (GMT 9XX), 2007 to 2014, front axle. The discs are 380x34mm 2-piece.
GT|A calipers are the two piece design derived from Brembo’s original equipment applications. They are the most straightforward of the GT calipers to install and suit road cars that see occasional track use.
Six piston caliper, the usual choice for a performance saloon or coupe front axle.
Disc face: available cross-drilled or Type 3 slotted. Type 3 slots are the pattern Brembo uses in professional motorsport. They give a strong initial bite and keep the pad face clean as it beds in.
Fitment notes from Brembo: Requires modification to the OEM steering knuckle Brembo GT Systems are designed for vehicles at original ride height. Increased ride height is not compatible with the brake lines included in these systems.
What is in the kit: 6 piston aluminium calipers, 380mm 2-piece discs with bells, Brembo pads, caliper mounting brackets, braided brake lines and the fitting hardware. Contents vary slightly by application, so check the part number against the list below.
Part numbers
| Disc face | Base part | Full part number by finish |
|---|---|---|
| Cross-drilled | 1J19017A | – |
| Slotted Type 3 | 1J39017A | – |
The last character sets the caliper finish or the line. 1 is black, 2 red, 3 silver, 4 gold, 5 yellow, 6 white, 7 fluorescent yellow. S is a GT-S caliper and R is a GT-R caliper.
Wheel clearance is the thing to check first. A 380mm disc with this caliper needs a specific wheel offset and spoke shape, and the requirement for a GT-R caliper is different from the GT version. Send us your wheel size, offset and make and we will read the clearance drawing against it before anything is ordered.

Brake work is safety critical. Brembo asks that these systems are installed by a qualified technician, and the kit must be checked, bled and road tested to the instructions supplied with it before the car is driven.
