Fits Nissan GLORIA Y32 (1991-1995)

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 — Nissan GLORIA Y32 (1991-1995) — 380 mm
380 mm

The Nissan Gloria Y32 was engineered to carry senior executives in unhurried comfort, which tells you everything about how Nissan calibrated the factory braking package. For a rear-wheel-drive saloon pushing upward of 1,500kg at the kerb, the original front setup was adequate for its intended pace, not for the expectations owners bring to these cars today.

This XYZ Racing front big brake kit replaces that hardware with a matched pair of front calipers and two-piece floating discs, sized to what the Y32’s weight and driven character actually demand. Pad compound is your choice of Street, Sport, or Racing, and the caliper arrives painted in one of five included colours.

What this brake kit does for your 1991-1995 Nissan GLORIA Y32

On a heavy rear-drive saloon, threshold braking loads the front axle hard. That is where the Y32’s mass concentrates under deceleration, and where disc diameter and compound performance matter most. The larger swept area gives heat more mass to dissipate, delivering more consistent pedal feel through repeated heavy stops and less fade down a long descent. The hollow-vane discs draw airflow through the disc body to carry heat away from the contact zone, and the two-piece floating construction lets the friction ring expand against the alloy bell without coning, holding the disc true and trimming rotating and unsprung mass.

Pad choice matches the friction to the use. Street is the quiet, low-dust default that suits the GT’s role as a brisk executive express. Sport adds bite and a wider heat range for harder road work. Racing holds its coefficient more reliably as temperatures build. Caliper colour is your choice of Red, Yellow, Gold, Black, or Anodized Black at no extra cost, with a Custom Color in any Pantone shade available, plus premium polished-forged finishes (Titanium, Polished Gold, Polished Silver) and candy finishes (Candy Teal, Candy Blue, Candy Red, Candy Orange), to integrate with factory alloys or the wider aftermarket fitment most VIP and modified builds run.

About the Hollow Front Brake Kit

The caliper is hollow-bodied as standard, keeping mass down without losing stiffness on a heavy platform. For serious track use the optional Hollow Racing caliper removes the dust cover, is rated to 1000C, and carries a two-year warranty. The kit is a direct-fit application to the Y32 front suspension geometry, with caliper mounting points specific to this platform rather than adapted from a universal bracket. Discs come drilled or slotted at the same price, the centre bell can be upgraded to a two-tone anodized finish in five colours or to titanium, and braided lines complete the front axle. Pad compound is selected at the point of order, so the friction material arrives matched to the disc from the outset.

Fitment for the Nissan GLORIA Y32 (1991-1995)

This kit covers the Nissan Gloria Y32 across its full production run from 1991 to 1995. The Y32 platform was shared with the Cedric of the same generation, so confirm your chassis code is Y32 before ordering, as hub and caliper mounting geometry differs from both the preceding Y30 and the subsequent Y33. This is a front-axle fitment; rear braking is not included.

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.
