Fits Audi S2 COUPE (1990-1996)

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 Rear Brake Kit — Audi S2 COUPE (1990-1996) — 330 mm
330 mm

The Audi S2 Coupe carries its iron-block 2.2 20v turbo five ahead of the front axle, and that weight bias shows up most clearly under braking, once the quattro driveline has shuffled torque around and the rear axle is asked to do more than the factory setup ever planned for. The XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit targets the back end specifically: more thermal headroom and a firmer, more progressive pedal for a car that is now a thirty-year-old classic still being driven hard.

This is a rear-axle upgrade, not a front-only headline fix. On a permanent four-wheel-drive coupe, balanced braking matters, and upgrading the front alone can leave the rear lagging and the car squirming on turn-in. Specify it to suit how you drive, from fast-road duty to occasional circuit work.

What this brake kit does for your 1990-1996 Audi S2 Coupe

Fit the rear kit and the first thing you notice is a pedal that stays consistent as the discs heat, rather than going long after a couple of hard stops down from three figures. The two-piece floating disc trims rotating mass at each rear corner, which helps the dampers and the quattro driveline react more cleanly mid-corner. Pad compound is your call, with Street for quiet, low-dust road manners, Sport for harder fast-road use and light track work, and Racing for sustained track sessions, so bite and temperature window match how you actually use the car. Braided lines hold a firm pedal as it warms. On a heavy five-cylinder coupe, getting the rear axle to carry its share of the braking load settles the chassis on entry and makes trail-braking far more predictable.

About the Hollow Rear Brake Kit

The Hollow Rear Brake Kit is a rear-axle package built around a two-piece floating disc with hollow internal vanes that sheds rotating weight without giving up swept area, paired with a forged caliper that is hollow-bodied as standard and finished in the colour of your choosing. Included caliper colours are Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black at no extra cost, with a custom Pantone shade available to match the car. Three pad compounds are offered, Street, Sport and Racing, each with its own friction level and operating-temperature band. The lighter disc comes up to temperature quickly on cold UK mornings yet has the venting to resist fade once you start leaning on it. Because the calipers, discs and pads are matched as a single kit, clamping force and pad area are sized to work together rather than cobbled from separate parts bins. Braided lines are included, discs come drilled or slotted at the same price, and the centre bell can be upgraded to two-tone anodized in five colours or titanium. It is engineered to add thermal capacity and pedal consistency to the rear of a quattro coupe whose original brakes were specified for 1990s expectations, not for repeated hard use three decades on.

Fitment for the Audi S2 Coupe (1990-1996)

This kit is cut for the Audi S2 Coupe across the full 1990 to 1996 production run. It is a position-specific rear-axle kit (SKU XYZ-BRK-BKR-AU-06-A-REAR), a pair of rear calipers and discs supplied for the rear only. Confirm your exact build year before ordering, since trim and running changes across the S2’s life can affect rear hardware.

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 330–356mm (rear). 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.
