Caliper render for this kit:

The Nissan Livina’s compact-car origins show up most clearly at the front axle: the standard brakes were specified for a hatchback, not a seven-seat MPV at its rated payload. Under repeated heavy applications with a full load aboard (descending a gradient, managing extended motorway runs, stopping with every seat occupied) the OEM setup runs out of thermal headroom faster than the car’s weight and role demand.
This XYZ Racing front big brake kit addresses that mismatch directly with a matched pair of front calipers and two-piece floating discs, a larger swept area than the OEM disc, and your choice of Street, Sport, or Racing pad compound, matched to the Livina 1.6’s actual operating conditions.
What this brake kit does for your 2006-2013 Nissan LIVINA 1.6
On a front-wheel-drive MPV, the front axle shoulders the overwhelming majority of braking effort, and the load increases significantly with full occupancy and luggage aboard. The hollow-vane discs draw airflow through the disc body and dissipate heat more effectively than OEM solid discs, directly combating the pad glazing and pedal softening that characterise the standard setup under sustained use. The two-piece floating construction lets the friction ring expand against the alloy bell without coning, keeping the disc true and trimming rotating and unsprung mass at the front.
Pad choice matches material to use. Street is the quiet, low-dust default for daily running. Sport adds bite and heat range for higher-demand mixed driving. Racing maintains pedal confidence under load on sustained gradients. Caliper finishes start with painted Red, Yellow, Gold, Black, or Anodized Black at no extra cost (with a Custom Color in any Pantone shade available, plus premium polished-forged finishes Titanium, Polished Gold, Polished Silver and candy finishes Candy Teal, Candy Blue, Candy Red, Candy Orange) let the upgrade read as an invisible improvement or a deliberate statement through the wheels.
About the Hollow Front Brake Kit
The caliper is hollow-bodied as standard, keeping mass down without losing stiffness. For serious track use the optional Hollow Racing caliper removes the dust cover, is rated to 1000C, and carries a two-year warranty. The hollow-vane disc channels airflow through the disc body to manage thermal load that solid-disc setups cannot sustain under repeated heavy use, reducing disc temperature across a braking sequence and preventing the fade-related softening loaded MPVs encounter most acutely at the front axle. 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 braided lines complete the front axle.
Fitment for the Nissan LIVINA 1.6 (2006-2013)
This kit is confirmed for the Nissan Livina 1.6 produced from 2006 to 2013, covering the front axle. Buyers sourcing for non-standard-market variants should verify front hub dimensions and PCD against their specific build before ordering, as specification can differ across regional production runs within this generation.

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.
