Dixcel brakes are now available at Torque GT, with a selection of pads and discs held in stock and ready for delivery!

What's particularly interesting for DC5 owners is that you now have another option for brake discs, other than Honda OEM blanks. Dixcel offer both their own replacements (which are slightly cheaper than the Honda discs) as well as slotted versions for increased performance.

To celebrate the launch, we're offering everyone an automatic 10% off on any Dixcel products ordered until the end of July

Here's a quick run-down on the current in-stock lineup, all of which can be ordered HERE.

ES Type Pads




ES (Extra Speed) is DIXCEL's affordable street pad, offering improved performance over the standard replacement pad, without braking the bank. ES is the perfect pad for anyone who uses their car day to day and enjoys the occasional spirited drive.
  • Designed for fast road use, with better than OEM braking performance
  • High fade resistance makes for stable brake performance
  • Scorched pad friction surface to improve bedding in process
  • Non-asbestos and non-steel compound
  • Operating temperature of 0-600℃

Z Type Pads



We're seeing a steep increase in performance vehicle owners using their cars for daily driving and occasional trackdays. The problem commonly faced is that street pads aren't tough enough to work properly under constant hard braking, and track pads seldom work from cold effectively. To get around this, DIXCEL took a selection of high performance, road going vehicles and set to work running extensive road and track trials. The result, is the Z Type pad.
Z Type is a true Street and Circuit crossover pad, offering a much higher friction level and effective operating temperature compared to standard or ES Type pads, whilst also working from cold.
  • Designed for Street or Track use
  • Consistent performance, even from cold
  • Stable braking and a high fade resistance
  • Graphite metallic friction material
  • Operating temperature of 0-850℃


PD Type Brake Disc




Intended as a high quality premium replacement for factory brake discs, DIXCEL's PD rotors are precision designed to meet and exceed the requirements of factory brake discs. Featuring a precise mixture of additives in the disc material, each rotor has a high resistance to durability, heat and cracking. Each disc comes with DIXCEL's own anti-corrosion coating to limit the spread of unsightly surface corrosion to the brake disc bell, keeping them looking fresh behind the wheel for longer.
  • High quality OEM replacement brake discs
  • Improved durability and resistance to heat
  • Applied with anti-corrosion coating
  • Improved disc life

SD Type Brake Discs



Exactly the same as the PD type, but with precision machined grooves for greater friction and improved performance. After extensive testing, a 6 slot design with a specific angle, depth and width of slot was chosen. This specific combination was shown to be the optimal for improving friction, whilst also taking into consideration other factors such as pad wear, noise and gas ventilation. The rotors can be installed with either slots facing forward or in reverse. Reverse rotation offers the best possible amount of braking friction, but sacrifices pad life, whereas forward rotation will slightly reduce effective friction but improve pad life.
  • All the high quality benefits of the PD rotor, including durability and heat resistance
  • 6 slot design increases friction by up to 20%
  • Can be installed in either forward or reverse rotation
