Make Your GT-R stop on a Dime with Alcon Brake Kit

When the first version of the Nissan GT-R launched in 2007, it made Nissan a sought after name in the industry. The look is something of an aspiring super car. The ability to use aftermarket parts gives the GT-R to be able to compete with the super cars of the world. The GT-R started out strong and through the years has only gotten better. They released the 2012 version with 530hp, which was an increase from the previous 473hp it launched the previous year. With more horsepower comes the need for better brakes.

Alcon put together the perfect brake kit for your street or track GT-R. Alcon has been providing the most elite vehicles with premium brakes for years. Their commitment to produce the best product, for the best cars, shows in this brake kit.The Alcon CCX Carbon Ceramic Super Kit gives two major benefits that you’ll be able to notice immediately. The first is the lightweight material that helps shed some of that unwanted weight. The second is the ability to not have to apply so much pressure when braking. This is due to the quality in not only the materials but the technology. Other added benefits are, that the pads and rotors have a low wear-rate, so they will have to be replaced less often. If you want your GT-R to run/ look like a super car, then give it the parts that super cars have.

Alcon Brakes Releases CCX Ceramic Replacement Rotors for Porsche

Following the successful introduction of the Nissan GT-R CCX Super Kit, Alcon is now applying the CCX technology to disc kits specifically designed to replace Porsche PCCB rotors.  Applications such as the Porsche 997 Turbo, GT3, GT2 can now benefit from the incredible racing design and engineering that Alcon brings to the game.

Carbon ceramic brakes are nothing new in the world of high performance road cars but Alcon CCX differs in that they work supremely well in all conditions. Furthermore, CCX brakes do not suffer from premature oxidation as other carbon ceramic brakes are prone to do so at elevated temperatures. Alcon’s unique design and composition ensures that wear rates for both pads and discs is actually lower than the OEM brakes.  Extensively tested over thousands of miles to ensure the braking effect adds value to the Porsche experience!  View all Alcon Brake Products Here.

With the CCX kit for the 911, Alcon set out to achieve something that had not been done before: to provide carbon ceramic brakes that are as suitable for everyday road use as they are on the race track. The CCX package is specifically designed to be fade resistant, provide excellent “bite” even when cold and improve the driver “feel”.

What’s included:

• Larger diameter discs mounted on aluminum hats.
  • Front 390mm (up from stock 380mm)
  • Rear 360mm (up from stock 350mm)
  • Caliper spacers include to raise caliper for bigger disc.
  • Alcon CCX-1 pads front and rear.

The benefits:

• The key difference between Alcon CCX and PCCB is that the CCX rotors can be re-surfaced multiple times for a fraction of the cost of new discs.
  • If PCCB rotors oxidize due to overheating, there is nothing that can be done to recover them.
  • Alcon CCX discs can be sent back to Alcon for re-surfacing, bringing them back to as-new condition.
  • Increased brake torque provided by larger diameter discs.
  • Alcon CCX kit can be fitted to 997s as a replacement for PCCB or standard iron rotors.

Pricing and availability:

• MSRP $21,895 (Part Number: DKC1131X061 – Complete front & rear kit)
• Available 3^rd week of February 2013.

Alcon Brakes Releases CCX Ceramic Replacement Rotors for Porsche

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 CCX specification for the Nissan GTR: 400mm front ventilated cross drilled CCX discs mounted to stainless steel bells 385mm rear ventilated cross drilled CCX discs mounted to stainless steel bells New 6 piston monobloc billet front calipers fitted with Alcon CCX-1 pads exclusive to Alcon supplied by Pagid 6 piston monobloc billet rear callipers fitted with Alcon CCX-1 pads exclusive to Alcon supplied by Pagid Complete with all hardware to enable fitment under the OE 20 inch GTR rims Brake later, brake harder – with improved stability – lap after lap, without fade. It’s just what you need when you’re attacking the track. Alcon CCX brakes offer almost a 30% reduction in brake disc mass over the original equipment, yet deliver a 10% increase in braking torque. 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  Alcon Releases CCX Super Brake Kit To Crush The Competition!
