Lynk & Co 02 Big Brake Kit Upgrade / TTSPORT Classic 8703
The Lynk & Co 02 is one of the more aggressive hot hatches on the market right now — a 2.0T pulled from the 03+, 254 hp, front-drive only after dropping the AWD hardware, and a claimed 6.2-second 0-60. This particular 02 belongs to a young owner who wanted the brakes to match the rest of the car's attitude, so the shop fitted a TTSPORT TT8703 big brake kit up front.
The upgrade is straightforward: a TT8703 six-piston forged caliper, a 380x34mm high-carbon heat-treated curved rotor, and TTSPORT stainless steel braided lines — all tucked behind the car's factory 19-inch wheels.
Vehicle & Kit Specs
| Item | Specification |
|---|---|
| Vehicle | Lynk & Co 02, 19-inch factory wheels |
| Front caliper | TTSPORT TT8703 forged aluminum-alloy six-piston caliper, 3.4 kg, total piston area 54.96 cm² |
| Front rotor | TTSPORT 380x34mm high-carbon heat-treated curved rotor, carbon content wc > 0.60%, vented |
| Brake lines | TTSPORT stainless steel braided brake lines |
The caliper comes with dust boots as standard, sealing the piston bores against grit and brake dust so the seals last longer under regular street and track use.
Why It Works
- The TT8703 caliper body is cast as a single piece from aluminum alloy, which keeps the structure stiff under load — a rigid caliper flexes less at the pads, so pedal feel stays consistent instead of going soft when you push hard.
- Material was removed only where calculations showed it was safe to do so, dropping unsprung mass to 3.4 kg without letting the caliper body expand outward under clamping force — that outward flex is what normally eats into brake performance and causes uneven pad wear.
- The 380x34mm rotor's high-carbon content (wc > 0.60%) raises hardness and heat resistance, resisting oxidation, rust, and warping better than a standard rotor, while the vented design pulls heat away from the friction surface to hold off fade during repeated hard stops.
- The full setup clears the Lynk & Co 02's factory 19-inch wheels, so there's no need for spacers or a wheel change to run the bigger rotor and caliper package.
