The pads with good braking power are usually dusty.

You can try Dixcel ES or Bendix Ultimate

Ok? Much cheaper on shopee mall vs other brand.

It's in my wishlist. Some member reviewed that that pads need to be heated to perform as intended.

It will be my next pad after my current pad is due.

I asked about buying few of these for my Iriz for track use with the local rep whom carry bendix in malaysia and was told need to wait at least 3/4 month for it lol shocking.gif

Not sure what other alternative I have especially for track use, the stock pad was not bad but at 300 bucks for one set is a little bit painful as it wore out very fast especially 4 hours of track day icon_question.gif

Not sure what other alternative I have since Iriz brake pad size is not common and I don't intend to change the brake system too.

Used TRW dtec mainly cz stock Honda brakepad is junk, always juddering down Karak highway. 2nd affordable value, no juddering, dust I believe is less.

Brembo, few buddies told too many fake on market, need to find genuine seller. If it me, shopee mall only.

My Honda brake pad feels fine maybe because its ORI that came with the car from factory? But yea next service need to replace pads so looking for something better. As Hingan pads don't know from where.. I heard front is from China the rear from Italy?

If you are not those touge kind or like to race. Normal ceramic pads will do. Also, Dixcel ES & Bendix Ultimate or Performance Kind will eat your brake disk.

If u change pad at Honda SC, standby rm700+/pair. Long time ago at rm650/pair. If it good, ok, but It's not. After few months on that pad, it start juddering at high speed braking. Return to SC, will ask to skim rotor again and again if under warranty.

I don't mind, it's an acceptable compromise. I'll just replace the rotors when needed.

My car has high torque, so the normal pads is not good enough for competent braking.

Nope.

Dixcel ES is primarily organic instead of metallic.
I'm almost finishing a set of fronts (rears still got 40-50% left) in just a year.

torque has no influence on braking... weight of the car has...

You are right, but because the car has high torque, I tend to drive faster easily most of the time, which affects braking when my car is already 1.6 tonnes in weight.

Can check with William from Hingan on where the pads come from. typically it's either Japan or China. I usually take the Nissin ones from him. So far it's been great at half the cost from SC.

Yes.

You can immediately recognise it by the packaging.

I usually ask for Nissin straight up. It should be from Japan.

How much mileage in the year?
How is the behaviour? From the website pressure chart, the friction seems to be pretty linear.

I'm look looking at Z type for a while. I want stronger brake during low pressure/shallow pedal.

Z type has slightly stronger initial bite low brake pressure at mid/low speed than ES. Average friction is similar with my OE pads.

The ori pads fiction is HH rated (0.5u+ for both low temp and 400C+), performance after market option for my car is almost non-exist.
Either too less friction or never make one for my car. Z type is the rare odd.

Aug 2023 (around the time i replaced full set Dixcel ES) to Sep 2024 I gotten about 25k km

Very good braking, consistent, but it does get a bit mushy after really intense downhill and hard/late braking on the corners and speed bumps.

Zero track activities with Dixcel ES though.

My next is indeed a full set of Z type.
