Dixcel Z Type Front Brake Pads – Lotus Emira / Evora 3.5 V6 Supercharged

Dixcel Z Type brake pads are a high-performance street and weekend track compound designed for drivers who want stronger stopping power, higher heat resistance, and stable brake feel under demanding conditions. They offer a confident initial bite and maintain consistent friction even as temperatures climb, making them ideal for fast road driving and occasional circuit use.

The graphite-metallic compound handles repeated high-speed braking without fading. Even after hard use, pedal feel stays stable and predictable. Cold performance also remains strong, so the pads feel responsive during normal daily driving while still offering the thermal capacity required for spirited runs.
