Aerospace-Grade Brake Systems
The Material Reality
Look at standard OEM carbon ceramics from the big names. They use chopped fiber. Think of it like MDF or cheap particle board. It is just a bunch of short, weak fibers glued together. It chips easily, degrades quickly, and once that thin surface layer is gone, the rotor is expensive trash.
OPUS uses a 3D Continuous Long-Fiber Matrix. Think of it like solid, old-growth hardwood. Long, unbroken strands woven together for immense structural integrity. It resists wear, refuses to chip, and can be resurfaced multiple times.
3D Continuous Long-Fiber Matrix
Aerospace Pedigree
The technology inside an OPUS rotor was not developed for weekend track days. It was developed to stop 80,000-pound commercial airliners and military jets. Our exact carbon-ceramic friction material is currently trusted by Boeing, Airbus, and classified military aerospace programs worldwide.
We took that exact same extreme-environment stopping power and bolted it to your hub. If it can stop a jet on a short runway, it can handle your braking zone.
Delivery Standard
Proprietary Technology
You cannot buy this material anywhere else. Period. The 3D continuous long-fiber matrix used in our rotors is so heavily guarded that OPUS holds the absolute exclusive rights to it in the entire automotive industry.
No other brand, no other manufacturer, and no other distributor has access to this specific aerospace-grade friction technology. When you run OPUS, you are running a proprietary weapon that your competitors literally cannot buy.
Validation
We don't rely on dyno numbers; we rely on lap times. OPUS braking technology has been extensively tested and validated on the most punishing 12.9 miles of asphalt on earth: the Nurburgring Nordschleife.
Our continuous-fiber matrix has been instrumental in securing record-setting lap times for prototype hypercars, proving its dominance under the most extreme, sustained abuse imaginable.
Cold Bite and Pedal Feel
The biggest lie in the industry is that carbon ceramics have to feel numb when cold. OPUS shatters that compromise.
Because of our proprietary 3D matrix and universal pad compatibility, our system delivers the most aggressive, confidence-inspiring cold bite of any carbon-ceramic setup on the market. From the first stop sign out of your driveway to the final hairpin at the track, you get immediate, linear modulation and a rock-solid pedal feel that traditional ceramics simply cannot match.
Performance Data
Three independent data visualizations. One conclusion. The OPUS system outperforms both OEM options across every measurable dimension, from operating temperature ceiling to peak friction coefficient to total unsprung weight removed.
Performance figures shown are for the Porsche 991 GT3 / GT3 RS application. Specifications vary by vehicle fitment.
01 -- Friction Coefficient vs. Temperature
The OPUS compound maintains a higher, flatter friction coefficient across a wider temperature range than either OEM option, with no fade within its 100-900 C operating window.
02 -- Performance Radar
Across all six performance dimensions, the OPUS polygon fills the frame. The OEM systems do not.
03 -- Relative Performance Metrics
Scored 0-100 across seven performance categories. The OPUS system leads in every single one.
Unsprung Weight
Unsprung weight is the most consequential mass on a performance car. It is the weight your suspension cannot control. The OPUS system removes 44 lbs of it, more than the OEM carbon ceramic option removes, without the fragility, the oxidation risk, or the replacement cost.

The System
Every OPUS system ships with four friction discs, four brake pads, proprietary superalloy hardware pre-assembled, and four carrying and display cases. What separates the tiers is the hat, the finish, and the level of machine time invested. Any pad works with any rotor across all three lines.
Entry Tier
The OEM+ retains the stock visual profile while replacing every critical component with something better. The hat is forged from 7075 aluminum, the same alloy used in aerospace structural components, paired with our proprietary superalloy hardware. From the outside, it looks like it belongs. From the braking zone, it does not.
What's Included
Signature Tier
The Masterpiece takes the OEM+ foundation and removes everything that does not need to be there. The hat is FEA-analyzed and CNC-machined to reduce mass while maintaining identical structural integrity, making it approximately 20% lighter than the OEM+. The finish is F1-grade electroless nickel plating for superior heat and corrosion resistance. The result is a system you can see the engineering in.
The Masterpiece is the perfect fit for spirited canyon driving and occasional track days. It is built for the driver who wants the best of both worlds without compromise.
What's Included
Track Tier
The Motorsport is not a street system. It is designed exclusively for dedicated track cars that will never see a public road. The hat is machined from aerospace-grade aluminum-lithium alloy, the same material F1 teams use for brake components, making it the lightest hat in the OPUS lineup. The friction discs are a fully optimized motorsport-specific variant with the most aggressive cooling channel geometry in the range, engineered for maximum thermal evacuation under sustained competition loads.
The Motorsport pads are developed specifically for this tier: maximum aggression, maximum stopping power, zero concession to street drivability. If your car lives at the track, this is the only system worth considering.
