Fits Toyota CORONA (1988-1993)

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 — Toyota CORONA (1988-1993) — 380 mm
380 mm

The T170 Toyota Corona’s front-wheel-drive layout places the front axle under compound demand during hard braking: it steers, absorbs suspension movement, and carries the majority of stopping load all at once. Toyota refined the T170 into a composed, neutral family car, but the front brake specification was sized for moderate-pace transport on Japanese city roads, not for owners who now run these classics down UK B-roads or out for the occasional track morning.

This XYZ Racing front big brake kit fits the Toyota Corona across the full 1988-1993 production span. It supplies a matched pair of front calipers and two-piece floating discs, raising front braking capability well beyond what left the factory.

What this brake kit does for your 1988-1993 Toyota CORONA

Front-wheel drive concentrates braking stress exactly where the T170 is already busiest: the front axle absorbs weight transfer, generates cornering force, and now has to work harder at the pedal. The upgraded front hardware gives that axle consistent, repeatable feel under sustained load, the kind of fade resistance the original brakes rarely managed once temperatures climbed. The hollow-vane disc draws heat off the friction face faster than the solid OE rotor, and the two-piece floating construction lets the iron ring expand against its alloy bell without coning, keeping the pad working flat. Three pad compounds set the character of the system: Street is the quiet, low-dust default for Coronas that see daily use, Sport adds stronger bite and heat range for spirited road work, and Racing is the track compound for committed circuit sessions. The included calipers come painted in Red, Yellow, Gold, Black, or Anodized Black at no extra cost, so the hardware sits properly within a restored or modified build rather than advertising a rushed swap.

About the Hollow Front Brake Kit

The Hollow is XYZ Racing’s direct-fit front-axle brake upgrade, with a hollow-body caliper forging as standard and a two-piece disc whose internal vanes manage heat under repeated braking. Pad compound choice is the central decision: Street prioritises low dust and quiet running for everyday road use, Sport delivers stronger bite across a wider temperature window without needing a heat-up period to work, and Racing is formulated for sustained high-temperature braking where performance at operating temperature outweighs cold-bite behaviour. 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 when you order. The included painted colours are Red, Yellow, Gold, Black, and Anodized Black; beyond those you can specify any Pantone as a Custom Color for £150, a premium polished-forged Titanium, Polished Gold, or Polished Silver, or a candy Teal, Blue, Red, or Orange. The T170’s brake setup is straightforward to work with, and compound choice has the largest single effect on how this kit feels day to day. Cars built for serious track time can add the optional Hollow Racing caliper, rated to 1000C with no dust cover and a two-year warranty.

Fitment for the Toyota CORONA (1988-1993)

This kit is listed for the front axle of the T170-generation Toyota Corona as produced from 1988 to 1993. The T170 was offered in right-hand-drive specification across multiple markets, including the UK, and this fitment covers the generation as a whole. If aftermarket wheels are part of the build, verify PCD and offset against the T170’s hub specification before ordering.

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.
