Power Stop Z23 Evolution Sport K7574 Brake Kit (Civic)

It is a complete front-and-rear kit. The K7574 box includes Z23 carbon-fiber ceramic brake pads for both axles, four drilled and slotted zinc-plated rotors, rubberized shims, stainless installation hardware, and brake lube. It is filed here under brake pads because the carbon-fiber ceramic pad is the scored friction item, but you receive everything needed for a bolt-on front-and-rear brake job.

Z23 Evolution Sport is Power Stop's carbon-fiber-infused ceramic compound. Like other ceramics, it sheds lighter, lower-adherence dust than a semi-metallic pad and stays quieter, while the carbon-fiber content is marketed for a firmer bite. Carbon-fiber ceramic compounds are rated for firm, fade-resistant street braking; owners on Civic forums report a confident street pedal and clean wheels for daily and spirited driving. It is a street/sport compound, not a dedicated track or heavy-tow pad.

Yes. The kit ships with the pads, rotors, rubberized shims, stainless installation hardware, and brake lube for a true bolt-on install with no modifications. Owners note Civic-specific tips such as needing a JIS driver for the rotor set screws and resetting the electronic parking brake on the rear, which are vehicle procedures rather than missing parts.

No. Power Stop is a respected aftermarket performance brake brand, not an original-equipment supplier to Honda. The Z23 compound is an aftermarket upgrade over OE replacements; there is no confirmed OE part-number cross-reference or published SAE J866 edge code for K7574, which is reflected in the friction-spec-compliance score. Confirm the kit fits your exact Civic trim before buying.

The Amazon listing for Power Stop Z23 Evolution Sport K7574 Brake Kit (Civic) carries a California Prop 65 warning. California requires this warning on a very wide range of manufactured goods — including rubber, vinyl, plastic, and metal automotive parts — whenever trace exposure to any of roughly 900 listed substances (commonly phthalates or heavy metals) is possible, regardless of whether the specific product poses a meaningful health risk. As a passive accessory, Power Stop Z23 Evolution Sport K7574 Brake Kit (Civic) has no Safety Data Sheet, so there's no chemistry breakdown to translate beyond that.
