Nissan R35 GT-R owners push hard, so brake performance has to keep up with boost, grip and launch control. This page groups brake discs, pads and full setups for the two key variants: R35 GT-R CBA (2009–2011) and R35 GT-R DBA (2012–2016).

The CBA cars typically run 380 mm front and rear discs, while DBA models step up to a 390 mm front disc with 380 mm rear. The products listed under each version are aimed at those exact sizes, so picking hardware that matches the car’s spec is straightforward.

Expect to see:

• Performance front and rear discs ready to take repeated high-speed stops
  
• Uprated pad compounds that keep bite strong as temperatures rise
  
• Options aimed at fast road, track days and full-send builds
  

CBA GT-Rs that still run stock brakes can feel out of their depth once power and tyre grip climb. Swapping to performance discs and pads tightens pedal feel, sharpens initial bite and keeps braking consistent when the car is deep into triple figures.

DBA owners chasing more power, aero and serious track work benefit even more from the right brake setup. The extra disc size up front deserves pad compounds and disc designs that deal with heat without going soggy halfway through a session.

Pick the correct R35 GT-R CBA or DBA section, match disc sizes to the car, then build a package around discs, pads and fluid. The result is simple: confidence to stay in it longer, brake later and still hit that apex with the car fully under control.
