Caliper render for this kit:
The RA6 and RA7 Honda Odysseys occupy an unusual corner of the UK JDM import scene. They are heavy, front-wheel-drive family haulers that carry considerably more front-axle load than their domestic minivan reputation implies, with factory front brakes calibrated for light family motoring rather than the more demanding use that characterises how many of these vans are actually driven here. The FWD layout concentrates the full burden of deceleration at the nose, and the Odyssey’s mass makes that imbalance more pronounced than on a lighter front-drive car from the same era.
The XYZ Racing front big brake kit upgrades that package for Honda Odyssey RA6/RA7 owners who want a front-axle stop matched to the van’s actual demands. Three pad compounds and a choice of caliper colour mean the kit can be specified around how the car is driven, not just how it sits on a spec sheet.
What this brake kit does for your 1999-2003 Honda ODYSSEY RA6/ RA7
Two-piece floating discs improve heat dissipation across repeated stops, a meaningful step forward on a vehicle whose weight forces the front brakes to work harder than on most FWD cars of this vintage. Three pad compounds let you match bite and temperature tolerance to the way you use the Odyssey: progressive, quiet and low-dust in Street compound for daily duty, more assertive in Sport spec for fast-road work, and high-temperature Racing specification for sustained harder applications where the factory pad material starts to give ground. Caliper colour is set when you order from Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black at no extra cost, whether you want the upgrade to disappear behind the alloys or register as a deliberate visual element.
About the Hollow Front Brake Kit
This is the front-axle brake upgrade for vehicles where the standard hardware is underspecified relative to actual driving demands. The caliper is a hollow-body forging as standard, and the two-piece floating discs manage heat more effectively than conventional solid rotors, an advantage that becomes tangible on a high front-axle-load vehicle such as the Odyssey, where repeated hard stops generate significant caliper and rotor temperatures before the OEM setup begins to fade. Three pad compounds span the range from everyday road use to race-level heat tolerance, so owners are not forced to choose between comfortable daily driveability and higher-performance stopping. For serious track use the optional Hollow Racing caliper removes the dust cover, is rated to 1000C and carries a two-year warranty. Discs come drilled or slotted at the same price, the centre bell can be upgraded to a two-tone anodized finish in five colours or to titanium, and beyond the included caliper colours you can specify a Custom Color in any Pantone for £150, plus premium polished-forged finishes (Titanium, Polished Gold, Polished Silver) and candy finishes (Candy Teal, Candy Blue, Candy Red, Candy Orange).
Fitment for the Honda ODYSSEY RA6/ RA7 (1999-2003)
This kit covers the Honda Odyssey RA6 and RA7 across the 1999 to 2003 model years. Both chassis codes are included within a single product specification, reflecting the shared front brake geometry across the RA6/RA7 generation. Confirm your variant using the chassis code on your V5C or JDM import documentation 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.
