Inside the carbon-ceramic production process
These production references document OWNSILENT's general carbon-ceramic manufacturing process — carbon-fibre preparation, preform production and precision machining. They are reference production photography and are not specific to this vehicle.

Frequently asked questions
Solus GT carbon-ceramic replacement, explained
Why does a factory Solus GT rotor need replacing?+
As a track-only single-seater, the Solus GT sees repeated heavy braking loads. Factory carbon-ceramic friction rings wear down with track use and can crack under impact or extreme heat cycling, requiring replacement rather than resurfacing.
Why choose an aftermarket replacement over an OEM Solus GT rotor?+
As an extremely low-volume, track-only model, OEM Solus GT brake components carry very high prices and long lead times when available at all. OWNSILENT manufactures a chassis-matched aftermarket C/SiC replacement engineered to the same factory caliper geometry, at a lower reference cost confirmed after vehicle verification.
Can the factory carbon-ceramic calipers be retained?+
Yes, in the applications OWNSILENT supports the replacement rotor is engineered around the verified factory caliper. Its part number, mounting geometry, pad shape and condition must agree with the approved specification before production is confirmed.
Is every Solus GT identical?+
Rotor diameter, thickness, offset, hat depth and caliper clearance are confirmed against the individual chassis rather than assumed from the model name, given the extremely limited production run.
What information should I send for a quotation?+
Send the chassis identification, wheel size, clear photographs of the current rotors and calipers, and any OEM part numbers visible on the components.
Who should install the replacement?+
Installation, torque procedures, brake-fluid checks, bedding and final safety inspection must be completed by a qualified technician experienced with track-only hypercar carbon-ceramic systems.
