VIN and factory brakes

Confirm model year, existing rotor/caliper package, OEM references and axle requirement.

Wheel clearance

Check barrel diameter, spoke profile and clearance around the full caliper and rotor assembly.

Caliper compatibility

Confirm the pad shape, caliper part number and complete mounting relationship before release.

Professional installation

Complete torque, fluid, leak, bedding and final road-safety procedures with a qualified technician.

How OWNSILENT manufactures C/SiC rotors

Inside the carbon-ceramic production process

These production references document OWNSILENT's general carbon-ceramic manufacturing process — carbon-fibre preparation, preform production and precision machining. They are reference production photography and are not specific to this vehicle.

Rotor processing chamber

The chamber and workpiece are clearly visible, but the exact finishing or treatment operation needs confirmation from factory documentation.

Carbon fibre sheet handling

A wide workshop view records careful sheet positioning before the material advances to the next visible preparation operation.

Carbon fibre sheet alignment

The straight-on composition makes the material width, layered construction and operator-controlled alignment easy to inspect.

Frequently asked questions

GT-R carbon-ceramic upgrade, explained

Does the GT-R come with carbon-ceramic brakes from the factory?+

The R35 GT-R is fitted with iron Brembo rotors as standard across its production run; carbon-ceramic is not a factory option. This is a full iron-to-carbon-ceramic conversion built around the verified factory Brembo calipers.

Is this conversion track-focused or street-legal?+

Both applications are supported. The specification, pad compound and cooling requirements are confirmed against how the car is used before production.

Can the factory Brembo calipers be retained?+

Yes, in the applications OWNSILENT supports the conversion rotor is engineered around the verified factory Brembo caliper. Its part number, mounting geometry, pad shape and condition must agree with the approved specification before production is confirmed.

Does this cover every GT-R model year?+

Rotor diameter, thickness, offset, hat depth and caliper clearance vary across the 2009–2024 R35 production run. The VIN and physical evidence from the current brake system confirm the exact specification.

What information should I send for a quotation?+

Send the VIN, model year, wheel size, clear photographs of the current rotors and calipers, and any OEM part numbers visible on the components.

Who should install the conversion?+

Installation, torque procedures, brake-fluid checks, bedding and final road-safety inspection must be completed by a qualified brake technician familiar with carbon-ceramic systems.
