Caliper render for this kit:

The base C6 Corvette carries a specific frustration for its track-day owners: the LS2 and LS3 engines generate pace that arrives at corners considerably faster than the standard front brakes were built to manage under sustained use. XYZ Racing’s front big brake kit for the Chevrolet Corvette C6 (non-Z06) targets that gap directly, adding front-end stopping capacity that keeps pace with what six litres of American V8 can actually deliver.
The Z06 left the factory with an uprated braking specification the base car’s buyers were expected to live without. For owners of the 2005-2013 C6 coupe or convertible, this matched pair of front calipers and discs is the logical corrective: a step up in front-end braking performance that addresses what the standard specification was never designed to sustain.
What this brake kit does for your 2005-2013 Chevrolet CORVETTE C6 (NON Z06)
The C6’s front axle carries the majority of the braking load under hard stops. The transaxle layout gives the car excellent static weight distribution, but physics still transfers mass forward under deceleration, and the standard brakes run out of composure before the chassis does. The two-piece floating discs draw heat off the friction face faster than the stock items and expand under temperature without distorting, so pedal feel stays consistent, and braided stainless lines keep that pedal firm where heat would swell a stock rubber line. Three pad compound options, Street, Sport and Racing, allow owners to set the bite profile to match exactly how the car is used, from quiet low-dust road running through spirited fast-road work to circuit sessions where the LS3’s top-end pull means you arrive at braking zones repeatedly and with intent. The included caliper colours, Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black, are visible through the C6’s open-spoke wheels, so the upgrade is functional as well as cosmetic.
About the Hollow Front Brake Kit
This is XYZ Racing’s front-axle brake kit for production sports cars that need more capacity than their standard parts provide. The vented two-piece floating discs come drilled or slotted at the same price. Three compound grades are available, each calibrated to a different use pattern: Street suits everyday road use with quiet, low-dust manners; Sport is matched to drivers who push consistently hard without a formal circuit programme; Racing is formulated for the heat cycles a tracked C6 generates across repeated sessions, where sustained high temperatures are the norm rather than an occasional event. The calipers are hollow-body as standard for low corner weight, with the Hollow Racing caliper available as an upgrade for serious track use, no dust cover, rated to 1000C and a two-year warranty. Caliper finishes run from the no-cost painted palette through Custom Color, any Pantone for a set fee, plus premium polished-forged (Titanium, Polished Gold, Polished Silver) and candy (Candy Teal, Candy Blue, Candy Red, Candy Orange) options, allowing the kit to integrate with wider livery choices or contrast against the standard silver and grey finishes that came on C6 calipers from the factory. Two-tone centre bells in five anodized colours, or titanium, are selectable at checkout.
Fitment for the Chevrolet CORVETTE C6 (NON Z06) (2005-2013)
This front brake kit covers the Chevrolet Corvette C6 in non-Z06 specification across the full production span from 2005 to 2013. That includes both the 6.0-litre LS2-engined cars produced through 2007 and the later 6.2-litre LS3 models from 2008 onward. The Z06 uses a different factory specification and is not covered by this fitment.

Choosing your spec
Every kit is built to order around the choices you make above. Here is what each option actually changes, so you can spec yours with confidence.
Brake pads — Street, Sport or Racing
Every kit ships with a full set of high-performance pads; the compound is your call.
Street is the right default for fast-road driving — a strong, progressive cold bite with low noise, low dust and long disc life. Sport raises the working temperature and adds bite and fade resistance for hard road use and the occasional track day, while still behaving on a cold morning. Racing is a track compound built for sustained abuse: huge fade resistance and bite once heat is in it, at the cost of more noise and dust when cold. Match the pad to how hard you actually use the brakes — there is no benefit to a race pad that never gets up to temperature.
Caliper grade — Hollow vs Hollow Racing
Hollow is the standard caliper on every kit: a hollow-body forged caliper, lighter than a solid one, fitted with a dust cover and backed by a 5-year oil-leak warranty. For most fast-road and spirited track use it is all the caliper you need.
Hollow Racing is the track-grade upgrade. It runs the same hollow body but without a dust cover (so there is nothing to melt at sustained high temperature), uses a twin-metal piston that isolates heat travelling from the disc to the oil seal, and is rated to 1000°C. Available 286–380mm (front). Warranty is 2 years on oil leaks and 10 years on appearance. Built for professional racing and repeated track days.

Caliper colour & finish
Painted colours (Red, Yellow, Gold, Black, Anodized Black) are included at no cost. Want an exact match to your car? Custom Color (+£150) paints the calipers to any Pantone code you supply (15–20 day lead time).
Polished Forged finishes are the flagship: a forged caliper given a mirror-polished surface treatment that shifts colour with the viewing angle. Beyond the looks, the polished surface dissipates heat better, resists rust and stands up to the weather. Choose Titanium (neochrome, +£350), Polished Gold (+£300) or Polished Silver (+£250). They look their best paired with a titanium centre bell. Care: clean only with a dilute neutral cleaner or water.
Candy colours (+£200) use a deep candy-paint and polishing process for a mirror-reflection, boutique finish — pick Teal, Blue, Red or Orange (shown below right).


Centre bells
The centre bell is the CNC-machined aluminium hat that joins the disc to the hub. The standard anodized centre bell is included. The Two-tone bell (+£200) adds an anodized accent ring — choose Red, Yellow, Orange, Purple or Silver right here at checkout. The Titanium centre bell (+£500) is a forged titanium bell (bolts not included) that finishes off the polished-forged look.
