Caliper render for this kit:

The Honda Accord CL places the full demand of braking at its front axle. FWD architecture means the rear discs contribute relatively little, and the factory caliper-and-disc combination was dimensioned for routine road use rather than the repeated, sustained loading of a track day or a hard run on a fast B-road. That thermal ceiling arrives sooner than most CL owners expect. The XYZ Racing front big brake kit replaces the stock front hardware with a larger swept area and a stiffer caliper that recovers composure between stops far more quickly.
The kit is configured before fitting: choose the caliper finish and the pad compound so the installation suits both the car’s use and its build.
What this brake kit does for your 1998-2003 Honda ACCORD CL
Braking physics on a front-wheel-drive car concentrate heat and load at the leading corners, and the 6th-generation Accord CL’s stock setup fades earlier than the chassis deserves under sustained hard use. The larger front discs the kit delivers over standard mean more swept area to absorb and dissipate energy, raising the thermal ceiling noticeably above original equipment. Pedal feel firms up and becomes more linear thanks to the stiffer caliper, which matters specifically on a FWD car where precise front-brake modulation on corner entry keeps the nose from pushing wide. Street is the quiet, low-dust road default; Sport raises the threshold for drivers mixing fast-road use with occasional track days; Racing is for circuit sessions under prolonged, sustained loading. Discs are offered drilled or slotted at the same price.
About the front big brake kit
The XYZ Racing front big brake kit is a complete front-axle upgrade for road and circuit use, shipping as a matched pair of front calipers and discs. Three pad compounds define the character. Street delivers improved bite and cleaner feel over the factory setup without requiring a warm-up cycle. Sport raises the thermal threshold for fast-road and sprint use. Racing is for circuit sessions where the front brakes will be under sustained loading. The hollow-vane disc manages heat through internal airflow, and the caliper is a hollow-body design as standard, with an optional Hollow Racing upgrade rated to 1000C, supplied without a dust cover and carrying a two-year warranty.
Caliper colour is a separate choice. Included finishes are Red, Yellow, Gold, Black, and Anodized Black at no extra cost, so the final installation suits a Honda ACCORD CL that stays understated or one that leans into the build aesthetic. A Custom Color in any Pantone is available for an added charge, with premium polished-forged finishes in Titanium, Polished Gold, and Polished Silver and a candy range in Teal, Blue, Red, and Orange above the painted set. Centre bell upgrades are offered in five anodized two-tone colours or titanium, selectable at checkout. All three compound options are confirmed for the 1998-2003 ACCORD CL front fitment.

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.
