Caliper render for this kit:

The Starex TQ’s weight is not incidental to the braking problem, it defines it. Hyundai’s long-wheelbase TQ platform regularly carries eight or nine passengers, or significant cargo mass, and the front discs responsible for shedding that inertia from motorway speed have been doing it on stock components since 2007.
This XYZ Racing front big brake kit replaces that original setup with a larger caliper assembly and hollow-vane two-piece discs sized for the TQ’s demands. It is a front-axle kit, a matched left and right pair of calipers and discs for the corners that do the heavy work. Three pad compounds let you configure the same kit for high-mileage fleet running, heavy daily use, or sustained-load work: Street as the quiet, low-dust default, Sport for harder conditions, and Racing for the most demanding sustained-load operation. You choose the compound when you order.
What this brake kit does for your 2007-2026 Hyundai STAREX TQ
A vehicle at the TQ’s gross weight generates considerable thermal load in the front brakes during heavy or repeated deceleration. The hollow-vane disc increases the surface available for heat rejection and routes air through its internal structure, which translates directly to reduced fade when the brakes are asked to work repeatedly, the exact scenario that exposes stock componentry on a loaded van. The two-piece floating design lets the iron ring expand against its bell without coning, keeping the disc flat and the pedal firm. The front axle carries the majority of the braking effort on the TQ platform, making an upgraded front assembly the highest-return modification for stopping performance on this chassis. Caliper colour runs across Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black at no extra cost, with a Custom Color in any Pantone, so fleet operators and individual owners can specify to their own preference.
About the Hollow Front Brake Kit
XYZ Racing’s brake kits target commercial-derived and passenger-van platforms where braking demands routinely exceed what passenger-car engineering assumes. The caliper is a hollow-body forging as standard, light but stiff under load, and an optional Hollow Racing upgrade for the most demanding use drops the dust cover, is rated to 1000C and carries a two-year warranty. The disc is central to heat management: airflow through the hollow-vane structure draws heat away from the friction surfaces faster than a solid-face equivalent, maintaining bite as the brakes cycle through repeated hard use, and you can specify it drilled or slotted at the same price. Pad compound is a configuration choice at order: Street for mixed-use daily running, Sport for more demanding conditions, and Racing for the STAREX TQ under sustained high-load work. Beyond the no-cost painted colours there are premium polished-forged Titanium, Polished Gold and Polished Silver and candy Teal, Blue, Red and Orange finishes, and centre bells can be upgraded to two-tone anodizing in five colours or titanium, all selectable at checkout.
Fitment for the Hyundai STAREX TQ (2007-2026)
This front big brake kit is designed for the Hyundai STAREX TQ generation, covering 2007 through to 2026. The TQ designation is the second-generation H1 platform; verify your chassis against this designation, rather than the earlier H1 or Grace models, before purchasing to confirm compatibility.

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.
