Caliper render for this kit:

The second-generation Eclipse occupies a peculiar corner of performance-car history: a D30 platform that ran from FWD base models to the AWD turbocharged GSX, all sharing the same front brake architecture, sized for a car Mitsubishi positioned as a sporty coupe rather than a performance weapon. Thirty years on, the owners keeping these alive, and the DSM community has never stopped, have long since identified the front brakes as the weakest link when the 4G63T is making demands the OE caliper was never designed to support.
This XYZ Racing Hollow Front Brake Kit addresses the 1995-1999 Eclipse’s front-axle stopping deficiency directly. It is a front-axle upgrade, a matched pair of left and right front calipers and discs. Three pad compounds, Street, Sport and Racing, with caliper colour included in Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black, make this a kit configurable from daily use through to circuit sessions.
What this brake kit does for your 1995-1999 Mitsubishi Eclipse
Front brake load on the 2G Eclipse concentrates predictably. On the FWD GST, 210bhp through the front wheels means decelerating and accelerating through the same tyres; on the AWD GSX, the front axle still takes the dominant braking share under hard stops. The hollow-vane disc construction pulls heat out of the rotor body far faster than the solid OE item, and the lighter disc trims rotating and unsprung mass off the front axle. Three pad compounds match the product to your use. Street is the quiet, low-dust road default that cleans up OE-grade feel without making the car difficult in cold or wet conditions. Sport lifts pedal progression and bite for regular spirited driving. Racing holds its thermal window under sustained hard braking, and fade was always the 2G’s braking weakness, so this addresses it at the compound level.
On a 2G Eclipse where the DSM scene has spent three decades forming strong opinions about build presentation, included caliper colours in Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black are a practical detail rather than a cosmetic afterthought.
About the Hollow Front Brake Kit
The Hollow Front Brake Kit takes its name from the caliper, hollow-bodied as standard, paired with two-piece floating rotors whose internal vanes manage heat far better than the solid-cast OE equivalent, relevant on a platform that dates to 1995 and whose rotor mass and thermal capacity were sized to a modest performance brief. Discs are available drilled or slotted at the same price, plumbed on braided lines for a firm pedal. It is a front-axle fitment, consistent with the front-dominant braking shared across both FWD and AWD 2G Eclipse variants.
Three pad grades cover the range from daily driving to circuit use. Street suits owners who want improved feel over OE without sacrificing cold-bite or wet-weather behaviour, the right choice for an Eclipse that still earns its keep on the commute. Sport is calibrated for spirited road use, with sharper initial response and better pedal feel once temperatures build. Racing is built for circuit temperatures, where the 4G63T’s potential is realised fully and the front brakes work hard and repeatedly. For serious track use an optional Hollow Racing caliper upgrade is offered, run without a dust cover, rated to 1000C and backed by a two-year warranty. Caliper colour is included in Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black, with a Custom Color to any Pantone for £150, premium polished-forged Titanium, Polished Gold and Polished Silver, and candy Teal, Blue, Red and Orange.

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.
