Caliper render for this kit:

The CS-generation Lancer was never a performance car in standard trim. Mitsubishi built it as an affordable compact, and the front brake hardware reflects that economy of intent. Owners who push a Virage on a track day or a demanding B-road quickly discover where the factory specification runs out of composure. This XYZ Racing Hollow Front Brake Kit for the Mitsubishi Lancer Virage replaces that front hardware with a system sized to the demands owners actually place on these cars.
As a front-wheel-drive platform, the Virage puts a disproportionate share of deceleration work through the front discs, particularly under the repeated hard braking a circuit morning or a spirited mountain pass generates. This is a front-axle upgrade, a matched pair of left and right front calipers and discs. Three pad compounds, Street, Sport and Racing, let you set the thermal threshold to match how the car is used.
What this brake kit does for your 2001-2006 Mitsubishi Lancer (VIRAGE)
On a front-driven platform like the Lancer Virage, the front brakes bear the bulk of braking force under every significant deceleration. The hollow-vane disc construction reduces rotating and unsprung mass at the front axle, sharpening initial pedal response and helping maintain consistent feel across repeated stops, both of which heavier factory disc designs mask. Street is the quiet, low-dust road default that brings improved bite over factory rubber without sacrificing the cold-weather manners that matter on a daily-driven CS. Sport adds more bite and heat range for harder fast-road work. Step up to Racing for circuit use and the improved thermal headroom becomes apparent, particularly in the final sector of a long lap where fade on a stock Virage is the first limiting factor most owners notice. Caliper colour is included at no extra cost in Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black, so the kit is finished in line with the wider build rather than standing out as an afterthought.
About the Hollow Front Brake Kit
The XYZ Racing Hollow Front Brake Kit pairs a hollow-bodied caliper as standard with two-piece floating rotors whose internal vanes reduce rotational and unsprung mass without compromising the swept area required for sustained braking performance. The hollow disc dissipates heat far more effectively than the equivalently sized solid factory item, which matters on a front-wheel-drive platform where the front axle carries both steering load and primary braking duty at once. Discs are available drilled or slotted at the same price, plumbed on braided lines for a firm pedal.
Pad choice spans three grades: Street for everyday driving, Sport for owners who want improved bite during spirited use, and Racing for cars that see repeated track sessions where temperature resistance is the priority. 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 finish 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, each a meaningful visual upgrade on a car where aftermarket calipers are immediately visible through open-spoke wheels.
Fitment for the Mitsubishi Lancer (VIRAGE) (2001-2006)
This kit is listed to fit the Mitsubishi Lancer Virage produced between 2001 and 2006, covering the CS generation sold across European markets under the Virage designation. Buyers should confirm their variant’s front hub and disc mounting configuration prior to ordering, as fitment depends on the factory front brake specification for their specific model year and trim. Verify your build year against the compatibility data on the product listing before selecting your compound and caliper finish.

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.
