Fits Porsche 964 CARRERA-2 (130) (1989-1993)

Brake pad compound

Street: quiet, low-dust, strong cold bite for road driving. Sport: higher temperature range and more bite for fast road and occasional track. Racing: maximum fade resistance for sustained track use (noisier and dustier cold). Match the pad to how hard you actually brake.

Disc size

Caliper grade

Hollow is the standard caliper: a lighter hollow-body forged caliper with a dust cover and a 5-year warranty. Hollow Racing drops the dust cover for sustained high-temperature use (rated to 1000°C, 2-year warranty) — the track-grade choice.

Caliper colour

Painted colours are included. Polished-forged finishes are mirror-polished forged calipers (Titanium, Gold, Silver); candy colours are a deep, mirror-reflection paint. Both are premium upgrades — fuller detail further down the page.

Disc style

Drilled discs (cross-drilled holes) vent gas and water and look aggressive; slotted discs (surface grooves) wipe the pad face clean and resist fade under sustained hard use. Same price — choose on looks or how you drive.

Centre bell

The centre bell is the CNC-machined aluminium hat that joins the disc to the hub. Standard anodized is included; a two-tone bell adds an anodized accent ring in your choice of colour; titanium is the lightest, forged option.

Carbon-ceramic rotor

Carbon-ceramic rotors are a special-order track upgrade: far lighter than steel, fade-resistant at extreme temperatures and extremely long-lived. The price follows the disc size you choose above. The standard two-piece steel rotor is included.

XYZ Racing Hollow Front Brake Kit — Porsche 964 CARRERA-2 (130) (1989-1993) — 380 mm
380 mm

The 964 Carrera 2’s rear-engine placement defines how the car must be driven. Trail braking, maintaining brake pressure through the corner’s initial phase, is the primary technique for managing the classic 911 oversteer tendency: it loads the front tyres, counteracts the pendulum effect of the flat-six’s rear overhang, and keeps the rear axle where the driver intends. Fade, inconsistent bite, or a pedal that loses feel mid-session removes that control at exactly the moment it matters.

The XYZ Racing front big brake kit for the Porsche 964 Carrera 2 (1989-1993) starts from that requirement. Three pad compounds span Street, Sport, and Racing grades, and the kit fits the front axle as a matched left and right pair with two-piece floating discs and braided lines.

What this brake kit does for your 1989-1993 Porsche 964 CARRERA-2 (130)

The hollow-vane disc reduces rotating mass at the front axle and dissipates heat faster than a solid disc, keeping bite consistent through the repeated heavy-braking events that define a track session or a committed road run in a 964. That consistency is what makes trail braking repeatable rather than approximate: a pedal that feels the same at the end of a lap as it did at the start gives the driver real information rather than managed uncertainty. The three compounds allow the system to be matched to how the car is used: Street for road miles and occasional track exposure, Sport for regular spirited driving where the brakes cycle frequently, Racing for sustained circuit work where temperatures climb and hold. The two-piece floating disc design lets the friction ring expand and cool independently of the alloy bell, which is what sustains that consistency under load.

About the Hollow Front Brake Kit

The hollow-vane front disc directs airflow through the rotor’s internal geometry, improving cooling over a solid equivalent and reducing the heat soak that erodes friction performance over a session. The XYZ Racing front kit is a front-axle fitment for the 964 Carrera 2, covering the full 1989-1993 production run. Pad compound selection across three grades, Street, Sport, and Racing, matches the system to the car’s actual role. The forged caliper is hollow-bodied as standard, with an optional Hollow Racing upgrade for serious track use, rated to 1000C with no dust cover and a two-year warranty. Discs come drilled or slotted at the same price.

Included painted caliper colours are Red, Yellow, Gold, Black, and Anodized Black at no extra cost, specified at order. A Custom Color in any Pantone is available, plus premium polished-forged finishes (Titanium, Polished Gold, Polished Silver) and candy finishes (Candy Teal, Candy Blue, Candy Red, Candy Orange).

Fitment for the Porsche 964 CARRERA-2 (130) (1989-1993)

This kit is built for the Porsche 964 Carrera 2 (variant code 130), covering production from 1989 to 1993. It is a front-axle fitment. Confirm your car is the rear-wheel-drive Carrera 2 specification, not the Carrera 4, before selecting compound and colour.

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.
