XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit — Honda ACCORD CL9 (2002-2008)

The CL9 Accord carries most of its mass over the front axle, so the rear brakes spend much of their life as bystanders, until you start stopping hard and often. On a fast road run or a track session, the standard rear discs heat-soak and the pedal goes long, blunting the balance that lets the 2.4 i-VTEC saloon turn in cleanly. The XYZ Racing rear brake kit for the Honda Accord CL9 (2002-2008) puts real thermal capacity on the axle that usually gets ignored.

This is a rear-specific kit built to work with the car’s front-biased braking rather than fight it. With three pad compounds and a two-piece floating disc design, it gives the CL9 a rear end that stays composed through repeated stops instead of cooking two corners into a session.

What this brake kit does for your 2002-2008 Honda Accord CL9

Fit the kit and the first thing you notice is a firmer, more consistent pedal that does not sink as the rear discs come up to temperature. The hollow-vane rotors shed heat faster than the solid factory items, which keeps the rear axle contributing under trail braking instead of fading. Choose the Racing compound and the rear stays planted through back-to-back stops, Street keeps daily refinement with quiet, low-dust bite, and Sport bridges the two for fast-road work. Because the kit addresses the rear specifically, it sharpens overall brake balance: the CL9’s nose-heavy layout already loads the fronts, so a rear that recovers quickly stops the car squirming under heavy braking. The caliper finishes let the hardware match the wheels it sits behind.

About the Rear Brake Kit

The kit is supplied as a matched pair of two-piece floating discs and calipers for the back axle. The rotors are drilled or slotted at the same price and carry internal hollow vanes that lower unsprung weight at the rear and open up more surface area for heat to escape. Paired with XYZ Racing’s rear caliper, the assembly clamps harder and runs cooler than the OEM Accord rear setup. Three pad compounds are offered: Street for quiet, low-dust road use, Sport for fast-road bite, and Racing for sustained track temperatures, so the same hardware suits an everyday CL9 or one that sees regular lapping. The hollow-body caliper is standard, with an optional Hollow Racing upgrade for serious track use that drops the dust cover, is rated to 1000C and carries a two-year warranty. Included painted finishes are Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black at no extra cost, with a custom Pantone colour at £150, plus premium polished-forged Titanium, Polished Gold and Polished Silver and candy Teal, Blue, Red and Orange. It is engineered as a bolt-on rear upgrade for the CL9 platform, keeping factory-style mounting while adding the thermal headroom the standard rear brakes lack.
