Caliper render for this kit:

The AP2 revisions calmed the AP1’s habit of snapping into lift-off oversteer, but the F22C-powered S2000 still rotates on its rear axle harder than almost anything else of its generation. That makes the rear brakes a balance tool rather than an afterthought, and it is exactly where this XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit for the Honda S2000 AP2 earns its place.
Fitted to the back axle, this big brake kit gives the rear of the car the thermal headroom and modulation it needs when you trail the brakes into a corner and ask the tail to help the nose turn. With pad compound options spanning Street, Sport and Racing, you set the rear bias to suit a Sunday B-road or a full track session without changing the hardware.
What this brake kit does for your 2004-2009 Honda S2000 AP2
The first thing you feel is a firmer, more progressive rear pedal that holds its bite as heat builds. On a rear-driven car that lives on throttle-and-brake balance, that consistency is what lets you lean on the rear under braking without it going light and stepping out unpredictably. The hollow-vane disc construction trims rotating and unsprung mass at each rear corner, which sharpens the way the AP2 picks up and changes direction. Choose the Racing compound and the rear copes with repeated heavy stops; the Sport pad adds heat range for fast road and occasional track work, while the Street pad keeps daily manners, low dust and quiet running. Your choice of caliper colour lets the kit sit behind the wheels the way you want it to.
About the Hollow Rear Brake Kit
The Hollow tag refers to the disc design, which removes material to cut rotating and unsprung weight while keeping the swept area needed to shed heat. The two-piece floating rotors run cooler under sustained load, and the caliper body is hollow as standard. The kit pairs those discs with a caliper and a choice of three pad compounds, Street, Sport and Racing, so the same hardware covers road, fast-road and circuit duty. Discs are offered drilled or slotted at the same price. Calipers come in Red, Yellow, Gold, Black or Anodized Black at no extra cost, with premium polished-forged Titanium, Polished Gold and Polished Silver, candy Teal, Blue, Red and Orange, or any Pantone shade as a custom colour. It is a rear-specific kit, sized and bracketed for the S2000’s back axle rather than a generic fitment forced to suit, so the disc, caliper and mount work as one assembly.
Fitment for the Honda S2000 AP2 (2004-2009)
This kit is built specifically for the Honda S2000 AP2 across the 2004 to 2009 model years and mounts to the rear axle. Confirm your car is the AP2 (F22C) chassis rather than the earlier AP1 before ordering, then select your pad compound and caliper colour to match.

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.
