XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit — Honda CIVIC FD2 TYPE-R (2005-2011)

The FD2 Type-R was the first Civic to wear factory Brembos up front, which is exactly why its rear axle becomes the limiting factor once you start braking in anger. The XYZ Racing rear brake kit for the Honda Civic FD2 Type-R rebalances that equation, giving the back of the car the thermal headroom and bite the front has always had.

Built for the heavier four-door Type-R, this rear setup is a pair of rear calipers and discs, left and right, pairing hollow-vane two-piece floating discs with a caliper you can run on Street, Sport or Racing pad compounds. For repeated stops from three-figure speeds on a circuit day, it keeps rear bias predictable at the point where the standard discs would already be heat-soaked.

What this rear brake kit does for your 2005-2011 Honda Civic FD2 Type-R

Because the FD2’s front brakes were never the weak point, the gains here are felt at the rear axle where they matter for balance. A rear kit with genuine thermal capacity holds brake bias steady deep into a corner, so the car settles rather than going light at the back under trail-braking. The hollow-vane discs shed heat faster than the standard solid discs, which delays the fade that turns a firm pedal soft by the third hard lap. Matching the pad compound to how you drive keeps the rear biting consistently: Street for quiet road miles, Sport for fast road with the odd track day, Racing when you are chasing a time. Braided lines hold the pedal firm as the fluid heats.

About the Hollow rear brake kit

The discs are two-piece floating rotors with a hollowed internal vane structure that trims rotating mass and pulls heat out of the friction face quickly. Less mass at the wheel gives the FD2’s rear suspension less to control, while the faster heat path keeps the disc in its proper operating window under sustained load. The kit is built specifically for the rear of the car and accepts three pad compounds, Street, Sport and Racing, so the same hardware covers a road-biased build or a full circuit specification. The caliper is hollow-body as standard, with an optional Hollow Racing upgrade for hard track use that drops the dust cover, takes a 1000C rating and carries a two-year warranty. Included finishes are Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and 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 to suit your wheel and brake theme.
