Carbon-ceramic rotors available for this kit

Special-order upgrade: two-piece floating carbon-ceramic rotors in place of the steel discs, supplied with their own matched carbon-ceramic pads. Roughly half the weight of iron, no fade on long descents or track days, no corrosion, almost no brake dust, and a disc life that outlasts iron many times over. Select it in the Carbon-ceramic rotor option below; the price follows the disc size you choose.

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.

The GG-chassis Mazda 6 (2002-2008) arrived as something the family car segment needed: a front-driver that genuinely rewarded a driver willing to use it. In non-MPS specification, the naturally aspirated 2.0-litre and 2.3-litre cars, the standard front brakes were sized for comfort motoring, not the way these cars actually get used by enthusiasts. This XYZ Racing front big brake kit addresses that gap directly.

Fitting larger front discs with a hollow-vane construction and offering three pad compounds, the kit upgrades the most load-bearing point of the 6’s braking system, the front axle, without touching the rear balance the GG platform’s engineers spent considerable effort calibrating. You receive a pair of front calipers and a pair of front discs, configured above this copy when you order.

What this brake kit does for your 2002-2008 Mazda 6 (NON MPS)

Under hard deceleration on a front-wheel-drive platform, weight transfer loads the nose heavily, so the Mazda 6’s front axle does most of the stopping work, which is precisely where the factory brakes begin to show their limits under sustained load. The hollow-vane disc improves heat evacuation at the friction surface, delaying fade during repeated hard stops on a fast B-road or a track-day circuit. Two-piece floating discs cut rotating and unsprung mass at the front, and braided lines firm the pedal by removing rubber-hose expansion. Three compounds serve genuinely different use cases: Street is the quiet, low-dust default for daily drivers wanting more confidence, Sport for those who run the 6 hard on fast roads, and Racing for circuit days where the brakes see high temperatures repeatedly.

About the Hollow Front Brake Kit

The kit takes its character from the disc construction. Hollow-vane discs reduce rotating mass against an equivalent solid disc while maintaining structural integrity under repeated thermal cycling, a meaningful gain at the front of a 1,300 kg saloon owners use hard. The caliper is a hollow-body forging as standard, light yet stiff, and for circuit use the optional Hollow Racing caliper deletes the dust cover, is rated to 1000C, and carries a two-year warranty. The kit arrives ready to specify to your compound and finish, covering the full range from daily-road use to circuit sessions.

Discs can be drilled or slotted at the same price, with centre bells available two-tone in five anodized colours or titanium. Included caliper colours, at no extra cost, are Red, Yellow, Gold, Black, and Anodized Black. A Custom Color in any Pantone is £150, with premium polished-forged Titanium, Polished Gold, and Polished Silver finishes and a candy range of Candy Teal, Candy Blue, Candy Red, and Candy Orange.

Fitment for the Mazda 6 (NON MPS) (2002-2008)

This kit covers the Mazda 6 in non-MPS specification across the full GG/GY platform run, from 2002 to 2008, saloon, hatchback, and estate variants. It is a front-axle fitment. Confirm the naturally aspirated engine variant before ordering; the MPS used different front upright geometry and is not covered by this kit.

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.
