Fits Honda EF CRX DELSOL (1987-1991)

Brake pad compound

Street: quiet, low-dust, strong cold bite for road driving. Sport: higher temperature range and more bite for fast road and occasional track. Racing: maximum fade resistance for sustained track use (noisier and dustier cold). Match the pad to how hard you actually brake.

Disc size

Caliper grade

Hollow is the standard caliper: a lighter hollow-body forged caliper with a dust cover and a 5-year warranty. Hollow Racing drops the dust cover for sustained high-temperature use (rated to 1000°C, 2-year warranty) — the track-grade choice.

Caliper colour

Painted colours are included. Polished-forged finishes are mirror-polished forged calipers (Titanium, Gold, Silver); candy colours are a deep, mirror-reflection paint. Both are premium upgrades — fuller detail further down the page.

Disc style

Drilled discs (cross-drilled holes) vent gas and water and look aggressive; slotted discs (surface grooves) wipe the pad face clean and resist fade under sustained hard use. Same price — choose on looks or how you drive.

Centre bell

The centre bell is the CNC-machined aluminium hat that joins the disc to the hub. Standard anodized is included; a two-tone bell adds an anodized accent ring in your choice of colour; titanium is the lightest, forged option.

Carbon-ceramic rotor

Carbon-ceramic rotors are a special-order track upgrade: far lighter than steel, fade-resistant at extreme temperatures and extremely long-lived. The price follows the disc size you choose above. The standard two-piece steel rotor is included.

XYZ Racing Hollow Front Brake Kit — Honda EF CRX DELSOL (1987-1991) — 286 mm
286 mm

Few 1980s coupes reward a committed driver the way the EF CRX does, and few expose the limits of factory braking quite so rapidly once you start using that chassis in earnest. At under 900kg in Si form, the EF carries corner speed that loads the front axle hard on the way in, and repeated heavy braking builds heat faster than the standard discs were ever sized to manage.

This XYZ Racing front big brake kit for the Honda EF CRX DELSOL is the answer to that specific problem. It is a matched pair of front calipers and two-piece floating discs for the front axle, with the factory rear brakes retained so the balance stays correct, and three selectable pad compounds that match the system precisely to how the car is used.

What this brake kit does for your 1987-1991 Honda EF CRX DELSOL

On a front-wheel-drive platform the front brakes carry the majority of deceleration load at every event, and on a car as short-wheelbase and light as the EF CRX, weight transfer under braking is immediate and pronounced. The hollow-vane disc face improves thermal management over a solid rotor, pulling heat away from the pad surface more effectively under sustained use. The two-piece disc pairs a forged alloy centre bell with a floating iron friction ring, reducing rotating and unsprung mass; on a car this weight-sensitive, that has a measurable effect on how quickly the wheel responds to direction changes and surface inputs.

Three pad compounds let you set the front-end character: Street is the quiet, low-dust default with a sharper initial bite than stock and no warm-up window, Sport adds heat range for fast road and the occasional track day, and Racing keeps response consistent through the higher temperatures that circuit use generates.

About the Hollow Front Brake Kit

The caliper body is hollow as standard, forged to keep mass down while staying rigid under clamp load. For sustained high-temperature track use, the optional Hollow Racing caliper deletes the dust cover, is rated to 1000C, and carries a two-year warranty.

Included painted caliper colours are Red, Yellow, Gold, Black, and Anodized Black at no extra cost. A Custom Color matched to any Pantone is £150. Premium polished-forged finishes cover Titanium, Polished Gold, and Polished Silver, with candy finishes in Candy Teal, Candy Blue, Candy Red, and Candy Orange. Discs come drilled or slotted at the same price, and the centre bell can be upgraded to a two-tone anodized finish in five colours or to titanium, all selectable when you order, so the installation can be finished to match the build.

Fitment for the Honda EF CRX DELSOL (1987-1991)

This kit covers the Honda EF CRX DELSOL from 1987 through to the end of the 1991 model year. Confirm your chassis is EF-coded before ordering. If the car has been modified from standard, particularly if previous caliper or hub work has been carried out, verify your front suspension geometry and caliper mounting points are still within original specification.

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.
