Lynk & Co 05 Big Brake Kit Upgrade / TTSPORT Classic 8703S
The Lynk & Co 05 pairs a sharp coupe-SUV shape with Borg Warner's fifth-generation intelligent AWD system — a setup that can shift torque distribution in as little as 100 milliseconds, hit 0-62 mph in roughly 6-7 seconds, and put 90% of its peak 350 Nm torque down within 2 seconds. That's a lot of grip and acceleration for a stock single-piston front caliper to keep in check. This case swaps in TTSPORT's Racing Series TT8703S six-piston big brake kit to give the brakes the same confidence the drivetrain already has.
The stock single-piston caliper on the 05 doesn't leave much margin once the AWD system is putting power down hard and repeatedly. The owner opted for a full front-axle upgrade rather than just a pad or fluid swap.

The TT8703S is a one-piece cast body with six stainless racing pistons — no dust boots, just the exposed piston bores you'd expect on a caliper built for repeated hard stops rather than daily fade avoidance alone.
Why It Works
- A monobloc cast caliper body flexes less under load than a stock single-piston floating caliper, which translates directly into a firmer, more consistent pedal.
- The 380mm x 34mm rotor adds mass and surface area over the factory disc, giving the system more thermal capacity to absorb heat from repeated hard braking without fading.
- Stainless steel lines replace the factory rubber hoses, cutting down on hose expansion under pressure for a more direct pedal feel.
- Installed with the vehicle-specific bracket and a 25mm flange adapter, the kit clears the factory 20-inch wheels with a clean, full fit.
