As an R35 driver, owner, enthusiast or even a forum member you are aware of a lack of performance in towards the brake components. With replacement discs from the dealership offered at staggering prices, it is an issue that a dozen brake manufacturers have jumped on to address. When it comes to track use and R35 cars coming out of performance shops around the world boasting 1000+ WHP replacement friction rings an updated pad just doesn’t get the job done. As a world renowned leader in braking innovation Alcon has upped the ante and set the bar high!

Alcon’s motorsport experience and tested extensively on both the road as well as the very technical Nurburgring, CCX is the last word in braking when it comes to on-track performance.
Traditionally, it is accepted that carbon ceramic brakes are not generally suitable for road use as they rarely attain the high working temperature needed to work efficiently. This isn’t the case with the design of Alcon’s CCX system, where efficient braking starts from cold, delivering exceptional initial bite. Alcon CCX is confidence inspiring for all levels of driver ability.
Shorter stopping distances and increased vehicle stability under even the heaviest braking not only improves road safety but makes for the ultimate late braking on the track time after time.
“I found driving (or stopping) your GTR a really mindstretching experience. I’ve never known a car with such powerful, easily modulated, fade-free brakes.” Steve Cropley, AutoCar
