XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit — Honda CIVIC FN2 TYPE-R (2007-2010)

The FN2 Type-R has always braked harder at the nose than its rear axle could back up. Push a standard car through a fast circuit lap and the rear discs heat-soak long before the K20Z4 stops pulling, so the balance creeps forward and the car’s stubborn factory understeer gets worse exactly when you need the rear to stay planted. This XYZ Racing rear brake kit for the Honda Civic FN2 Type-R is about giving that rear axle back its share of the stopping job.

It is a pair of rear calipers and discs, left and right, mounting hollow-vane two-piece floating discs to a fixed caliper and letting you choose the pad compound to match how you drive, so the rear of the car keeps biting through repeated heavy stops instead of fading and dumping everything onto the fronts. On a 2007-2010 Type-R that earns its keep on track days, that is the difference between a car you can lean on and one that washes wide every time you brake deep into a corner.

What this brake kit does for your 2007-2010 Honda Civic FN2 Type-R

The headline gain is brake balance. With more consistent rear torque, the FN2’s tail stays settled under trail-braking and the nose-led understeer that defines this chassis is easier to manage rather than something you fight on every entry. The hollow-vane disc design shaves rotating and unsprung mass at the rear, which sharpens how quickly the brakes wake up and takes a little strain off the twist-beam axle’s geometry. Pick the Racing compound and the rear holds firm through a full session of heavy stops; choose Sport for a wider heat range on fast roads, or Street for quiet, low-dust daily running. Braided lines keep pedal feel linear rather than letting it go long once the discs are hot.

About the Hollow rear brake kit

The kit is built around a two-piece floating disc with hollow internal vanes rather than a solid casting, trimming weight while opening up more surface area to shed heat between braking events. That disc runs inside a fixed caliper, hollow-body as standard, which resists flex better than a sliding unit and keeps pad contact even as temperatures climb; a Hollow Racing upgrade for hard track use loses the dust cover, takes a 1000C rating and carries a two-year warranty. Pad compound is your choice across three grades: Street for quiet, low-dust manners, Sport for stronger bite and a wider heat range, and Racing for circuit duty where fade resistance comes first. Calipers are finished in Red, Yellow, Gold, Black or Anodized Black at no extra cost, with a custom Pantone colour and premium polished-forged (Titanium, Polished Gold, Polished Silver) or candy (Teal, Blue, Red, Orange) options, so the rear hardware can be left subtle or made to show through the wheel. The whole package is engineered specifically for the rear position on this chassis, not adapted from a generic fitment.
