Caliper render for this kit:

The CVT fitted to every Z51 Murano removes the engine braking that manual-gearbox drivers take for granted through long descents. Every kilogram of the Murano’s considerable mass comes home via the front brakes, with no gearbox to share the deceleration demand. At motorway speeds with a VQ35DE V6 and a loaded SUV behind it, the OEM front callipers are sized for average-use assumptions, not the thermal load that repeated hard stops or a sustained mountain descent generate.
This XYZ Racing front big brake kit fits the Nissan Murano 4WD Z51 across the full 2004-to-2014 production run. It is a matched pair of front callipers and two-piece floating discs, configurable from routine daily use through to the conditions that expose the factory hardware’s limits via your choice of Street, Sport, or Racing pad compound.
What this brake kit does for your 2004-2014 Nissan MURANO 4WD Z51
The Murano’s raised ride height pushes its centre of gravity upward, so under hard braking substantial weight transfers onto the front axle, loading the front discs harder than the stock dimensions handle comfortably under sustained demand. The hollow-vane discs draw airflow through the disc body to increase heat-shedding capacity, which suits the CVT’s all-brakes-all-the-time architecture. 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.
Pad choice addresses use cases directly. Street is the quiet, low-dust default for commuting. Sport adds bite and heat range for spirited B-road or loaded-motorway work. Racing handles conditions that push the Z51 to its braking limits. Six calliper finishes, painted in 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) sit properly visible behind upsized alloys where the OEM hardware disappears entirely. The pedal feel improves because the discs are matched to the actual thermal demands of this platform.
About the Hollow Front Brake Kit
The callipers are hollow-bodied as standard, keeping mass down while staying stiff. For serious track use the optional Hollow Racing callipers remove the dust cover, are rated to 1000C, and carry a two-year warranty. On a vehicle like the Murano, where brake energy builds through continuous deceleration amplified by CVT operation rather than corner-entry braking, that sustained ventilation capacity matters more than peak bite temperature. 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. A single SKU covers all 4WD configurations of the Z51 produced between 2004 and 2014.
Fitment for the Nissan MURANO 4WD Z51 (2004-2014)
This kit is confirmed for the Nissan Murano 4WD Z51 chassis, covering the full 2004 to 2014 production span. Front position means these are direct replacements for the OEM front discs and callipers on the 4WD drivetrain. Confirm your car carries the Z51 chassis code before ordering; the earlier Z50-generation Murano uses different front-hub geometry and is a separate fitment not covered by this SKU.

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.
