XYZ Racing Hollow Front Brake Kit — Fiat GRANDE PUNTO (2005-2009)

The Abarth conversion turned Fiat’s capable supermini into a turbocharged front-driver with chassis responses the standard braking hardware was never calibrated to match. Track sessions in a 199-platform Abarth Grande Punto expose the gap quickly: repeated hard stops heat-soak the standard discs, pedal travel creeps, and you start modulating corner entry speed to compensate for hardware the car’s dynamics have already outgrown.

This XYZ Racing front brake kit closes that gap at the axle where the Grande Punto needs it most. It is a single-axle kit, a matched pair of front calipers and discs. The two-piece floating discs dissipate heat more aggressively than the stock setup, and three pad compounds give a kit that can be configured for road use, mixed street and track, or committed circuit sessions.

What this brake kit does for your 2005-2009 Fiat Grande Punto

On a front-wheel-drive car, the front axle already does most of the braking work under any meaningful deceleration load, and on the Grande Punto that responsibility falls on hardware sized for the full model range rather than the Abarth at its ceiling. The two-piece floating discs pull heat away from the friction surface faster, keeping pedal feel consistent across consecutive hard stops. Three compounds extend the kit’s usefulness: Street is the quiet, low-dust default for owners who drive quickly on public roads and want stronger initial bite and better fade resistance; Sport covers regular circuit outings with fast-road use in between; Racing is the track compound for those running the Grande Punto in dedicated sessions where sustained high pad temperatures are the norm. Painted caliper colours come in Red, Yellow, Gold, Black, or Anodized Black at no extra cost, with a Custom Color in any Pantone for an upcharge and premium polished-forged or candy finishes beyond that, visible through open alloys without a separate paint or refurbish job.

About the Brake Kit

XYZ Racing’s front brake kit uses two-piece floating discs designed to manage the heat load that compact turbocharged front-drivers generate in hard use. The construction increases thermal capacity without adding the rotating mass heavier cast-iron setups carry, which matters on a car the Grande Punto’s size where unsprung weight has a perceptible effect on how the chassis responds mid-corner. The caliper body is hollow-cast as standard, with the Hollow Racing upgrade, no dust cover, a 1000C rating, and a two-year warranty, for committed track use. Three compounds are offered, Street, Sport, and Racing, covering the spread from occasional spirited driving through to competition use. Discs come drilled or slotted at the same price, braided lines firm up the pedal, and two-tone centre bells in five anodized colours or titanium are selectable at checkout. The kit covers the front axle, where the thermal load on the Grande Punto concentrates.
