DBA 04-14 Acura TSX Front 5000 Series Slotted Rotor w/Black Hat

Sharing all the benefits of the 4000 Series, DBA's 5000 Series rotors are a composite 2 piece direct replacement brake rotor. DBA uses only the highest quality materials to ensure optimal performance under the most strenuous circumstances, combining high carbon cast-iron rings with aerospace grade aluminum hats (T6061-T6), held together with National Aerospace Standards (NAS) bolts and crimp nuts. The 5000 Series share all of the performance technology featured in the 4000 Series, with the added benefits of further weight reduction and improved heat management via aluminum hats. The use of aerospace grade aluminum hats reduces the unsprung weight of the brake rotors, while allowing for uniform radial disc expansion through the cast iron rings, and reduced heat transfer from disc to hub via the aluminum hats. DBA offers both complete assemblies for first time replacement (hats and flat discs bolted together) along with replacement hats and flat disc rotors (rings). This allows drivers to re-use their DBA 5000 Series hats with DBA replacement flat discs (rings). DBA recommends the 5000 Series for high performance street vehicles, track day and club racing and rally applications.

Note for Pistons, Rings, Rotors, Rods and engine internals

Unless otherwise specified, some brands supply brake rotors, pistons, strut mounts, rods and rings separately. In some cases, titles may indicate plural, or 'set' - eg the term “ring set” often refers to the rings for a single piston only. If you’re unsure about what’s included with this product, please contact our team for clarification.

Images are supplied by the manufacturer and may be generic. While all efforts are made to provide accurate pictures, there may be differences in the actual product, such as colour, quantity, version, or included components. Please carefully review the description and specifications for details on inclusions or any variations. Some items may be sold individually or in sets, and images may occasionally depict additional products or quantities not included in your purchase.

Reference Information

T3 5000 Series Slotted Rotor, Black Hat

Look "down under" for great stopping power; the Aussies from DBA have delivered their Club Spec 5000 T3 brake rotors. Teeming with technology, innovation, and great attention to detail, these 2-piece 5000 Series road-and-race rotors offer winning performance for motorsports and other extreme applications. Inside and out, they're designed for maximum cooling and ultimate braking power. Plus, the non-friction areas are painted with high-temperature engine enamel for "no-worries" corrosion resistance and lasting good looks. Choose the model designed for fitment on your vehicle.

DBA's Club Spec 5000 T3 technology features:
• XG150 high-carbon alloy iron—specifically formulated for high heat absorption and dissipation
• Thermal Stability Profiling TSP—a unique process that enhances the microstructure of the rotor so they can take more heat for longer periods and maintain stability
• T3 universal slot pattern—strategically placed to move gasses, heat, and debris away from the rotor surface for consistent stops, to dampen vibrations and harmonics for more responsive pedal feel, and eliminate the need for left and right discs
• Kangaroo Paw ventilation—patented, high-tech system of 144 teardrop pillars that provide greater surface area, strength, and increased heat dissipation
• Thermographic Temperature Monitoring TGHP—heat paint markings that change color at specific temperature thresholds, allowing you to monitor peak braking temperatures and rotor fatigue
