Caliper render for this kit:

The FD2 Civic’s K20A commits everything to the front axle: 222bhp through a single driven end, an 8,400rpm ceiling that rewards holding gears deep into braking zones, and a short wheelbase that loads the front tyres hard under trail-braking. On track that combination makes the front brakes the component most likely to define the ceiling of your session. This XYZ Racing front big brake kit for the Honda Civic FD2 (2005-2011) addresses that constraint at its source.
The kit is a matched pair of front calipers and two-piece floating discs, sized for the FD2’s front hubs and engineered to manage heat where the car generates the most of it. It fits the front axle only, leaving the factory rear brakes intact so the front-to-rear balance the chassis was set up around stays correct.
What this brake kit does for your 2005-2011 Honda CIVIC FD2
Front-wheel drive concentrates braking, steering, and traction demands through the same two corners at once, and the FD2’s short wheelbase amplifies nose loading under heavy deceleration. A well-matched front kit pushes back the heat-soak fade that builds as fluid temperatures climb during sustained hard stops, the kind that starts as longer pedal travel and ends as lost confidence on the approach to a marker.
The two-piece disc runs a forged alloy centre bell with a floating iron friction ring, which trims rotating and unsprung mass at the front corner and lets the FD2’s already talkative steering return cleaner feedback under load. The hollow-vane disc face draws cooling air through the rotor body, slowing the temperature rise that triggers fade. Three pad compounds let you tune the front-end character without changing hardware: Street for a quiet, low-dust road default, Sport for more bite and heat range across fast road and the occasional track day, and Racing for full circuit use.
About the Hollow Front Brake Kit
The caliper body is hollow as standard, a forged construction that keeps weight down without giving up stiffness under clamp load. For owners who run sustained track sessions, an optional Hollow Racing caliper is available: it drops the dust cover, is rated to 1000C, and carries a two-year warranty for serious circuit duty.
Painted caliper colours are included at no extra cost in Red, Yellow, Gold, Black, and Anodized Black. A Custom Color option matches any Pantone reference for a £150 upcharge. Premium polished-forged finishes are offered in Titanium, Polished Gold, and Polished Silver, with candy finishes in Candy Teal, Candy Blue, Candy Red, and Candy Orange. Discs come drilled or slotted at the same price, and the centre bell can be upgraded to a two-tone anodized finish in five colours or to titanium, all selectable when you order.
Fitment for the Honda CIVIC FD2 (2005-2011)
This kit is specified for the Honda Civic FD2 across its 2005-2011 production span. The FD2 chassis designation covers the naturally aspirated, front-wheel drive Civic of this generation, which reached the UK predominantly through grey import from Japanese production and is distinct from the European-specification FN2 Type R sold here officially. Installation is front-axle only. Confirm your car’s build date falls within the listed range before ordering.

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.
