Caliper render for this kit:

The factory brief for the 2001-2006 EK Wagon was simple: compact urban transport for the Japanese domestic market, a 660cc engine, and brakes sized accordingly. What owners now driving H82W imports in the UK have found is that the platform’s kei-car kerb weight makes it a surprisingly potent tool once you start putting more capable hardware underneath it, and the original front calipers were never calibrated for anything beyond supermarket runs at sensible speeds.
This XYZ Racing Hollow Front Brake Kit addresses that gap directly. For the EK Wagon now being used for drag events, stripped track builds, or simply driven harder than Mitsubishi anticipated, it swaps the modest OE front hardware for a matched pair of left and right front calipers and discs that keeps pace with how the car actually gets driven.
What this brake kit does for your 2001-2006 Mitsubishi EK Wagon
The EK Wagon’s kei-car weight means the front axle sees far less inertial load than a conventional hatchback, which makes meaningful brake upgrades especially effective here, with less force required to achieve the same retardation and more margin before fade becomes a factor. The hollow-vane disc construction pulls heat out of the rotor body faster than the solid OE item and trims rotating and unsprung mass off the front axle, sharpening turn-in on a light car. Three pad compounds cover the full spread. Street is the quiet, low-dust road default. Sport suits mixed or more spirited applications with extra bite and heat range. Racing handles drag days and circuit sessions where initial bite and sustained fade resistance are priorities. Caliper colour is included at no extra cost in Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black, so the kit sits cleanly alongside any visual direction the build is heading.
About the Hollow Brake Kit
The XYZ Racing Hollow is a front-axle brake upgrade built around a hollow-bodied caliper as standard, two-piece floating discs and selectable pad compounds, aimed at vehicles that have outgrown their factory stopping hardware through use or intent. Discs are available drilled or slotted at the same price, plumbed on braided lines for a firm pedal. The compound range, Street, Sport and Racing, means the same kit serves a road-registered daily or a dedicated event car without sourcing separate hardware. 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 finish 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. For a platform like the EK Wagon, built to meet the demands of urban Japan rather than competitive UK use, the improvement in braking response and visual quality is immediate.

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.
