XYZ Racing Hollow Front Brake Kit — Lexus IS 300 (XE10) (2000-2005)

The XE10 IS 300’s 2JZ-GE sits ahead of the front axle, and while the naturally aspirated straight-six is no firebreather in standard trim, the rear-wheel-drive layout means braking load concentrates hard at the front under a proper stop. The factory sliding caliper and conventional vented rotor cope fine with everyday road use, but on circuit, or descending a long gradient at pace, the OEM front setup on the XE10 gives up sooner than the chassis deserves.

This XYZ Racing front big brake kit takes the heat side of that equation seriously. It is a front-axle upgrade: a matched pair of left and right calipers, two-piece floating discs with a hollow-vane friction ring, and braided lines. The hollow-vane disc improves thermal management through the disc body, keeping the pedal firmer and more consistent where a standard rotor builds heat and starts to fade.

What this brake kit does for your 2000-2005 Lexus IS 300 (XE10)

Three pad compounds, Street, Sport and Racing, let you specify the kit around how the car is actually used. The Street pad is the quiet, low-dust road default; the Sport pad steps up bite and heat range for an IS 300 that splits time between fast roads and the occasional track day; the Racing pad is there when the XE10 is being run in earnest at circuit sessions. The hollow-vane disc improves heat recovery between braking zones compared with the OEM vented disc, holding pedal consistency across a session rather than just the first few stops. Calipers are painted in Red, Yellow, Gold, Black or Anodized Black at no extra cost, so the finish suits whether the IS 300 is a clean fast-road car or a circuit regular that turns heads in the pit lane.

About the front big brake kit

The caliper is a hollow-body forged unit as standard. For sustained track work you can move up to the Hollow Racing caliper, which removes the dust cover, is rated to 1000C and is backed by a two-year warranty. The two-piece floating disc manages heat through its body far better than a conventional cast rotor, and that matters directly on a rear-wheel-drive platform where the front axle carries the braking load through every stop. 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 at checkout. Painted colours run Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black; beyond those you can specify any Pantone as a Custom Color for £150, or choose a premium polished-forged finish in Titanium, Polished Gold or Polished Silver, or a candy finish in Teal, Blue, Red or Orange. All three pad compounds share the same bracket and hardware, so swapping between road and track specification needs no extra tooling.

Fitment for the Lexus IS 300 (XE10) (2000-2005)

This front big brake kit is developed specifically for the XE10 chassis, covering the Lexus IS 300 from 2000 through 2005. Fitment is to the front axle as a left-and-right pair. If you are working from a late-build car, cross-reference your production date against the 2000-2005 span to confirm your hub specification falls within the supported range before ordering.
