Caliper render for this kit:

The CT9A’s Active Yaw Control rear differential is only as effective as the front axle’s confidence under braking. Every EVO9 driver who has pushed one hard on road or track knows the sensation: the front bites, the rear rotates, and the car pivots with an immediacy that is entirely the point. What sustains that feeling over a long run is consistent, repeatable front deceleration, and that is exactly where this XYZ Racing Hollow Front Brake Kit raises the standard over the original hardware.
Even GSR variants that left the factory with Brembo four-pots fitted are running hardware designed to a specification set in the early 2000s. Track sessions, hillclimbs and sustained fast-road use expose the thermal limits of original calipers and pads faster than the rest of the 4G63 platform allows. This kit is a front-axle upgrade, a matched pair of left and right front calipers and discs.
What this brake kit does for your 2005-2008 Mitsubishi EVO9
A larger swept area at the front axle reduces the heat load per unit of braking effort, keeping pedal feel consistent when the EVO9 is being driven as intended. The hollow-vane disc construction moves heat out of the disc body far faster than the solid-face OE rotor during the repeated, aggressive stops demanded of a CT9A in high-performance use, and the lighter disc trims rotating and unsprung mass at the front. Three pad compounds cover the car from weekend fast-road use through to circuit and time-attack applications without swapping hardware. Street is the quiet, low-dust road default; Sport adds bite and heat range for mixed road and occasional track days; Racing is the dedicated circuit compound for continuous heat cycles. Caliper colour is included at no extra cost in Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black, so the kit sits correctly behind whatever wheel combination the car currently runs.
About the Hollow Front Brake Kit
The Hollow series centres on a hollow-bodied caliper as standard and two-piece floating rotors engineered for accelerated heat management during sustained performance driving. Discs are available drilled or slotted at the same price, plumbed on braided lines for a firm, repeatable pedal. The three-tier pad selection gives owners a clear path through progressively demanding use cases: Street covers break-in and light road use, Sport suits the driver who attends occasional track days without switching to race-only hardware, and Racing is there for dedicated circuit work where heat cycles are continuous. For serious track use an optional Hollow Racing caliper upgrade is offered, run without a dust cover, rated to 1000C and backed by a two-year warranty. Caliper colour is included in Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black, with a Custom Color to any Pantone for £150, premium polished-forged Titanium, Polished Gold and Polished Silver, and candy Teal, Blue, Red and Orange.
This is a front-axle upgrade built for the EVO9’s braking demands in higher-output and higher-use configurations. It works with the CT9A front suspension geometry without requiring additional ancillary modification.
Fitment for the Mitsubishi EVO9 (2005-2008)
This front brake kit is specified for the CT9A-generation EVO9, covering the 2005 to 2008 production run across GSR and RS variants. The kit is designed for EVO9 front axle geometry specifically; confirm your chassis designation before ordering, as EVO8 and EVO9 front suspension dimensions differ and cross-generation fitment is not guaranteed.

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.
