Caliper render for this kit:

The Toyota Corona Exsior’s front-wheel-drive layout does what every FWD saloon does under hard braking: it loads the front axle with everything the car has, then asks the stock discs to deal with it. On a car built to a family-saloon brief in 1993 those discs were sized conservatively, and three decades of heat cycles have not improved matters. For owners running the Exsior with any ambition at all, the front brake assembly is the most overdue upgrade on the car.
This XYZ Racing front big brake kit answers that for the 1993-1997 Corona Exsior, pairing hollow-vane two-piece floating discs with a choice of three pad compounds and a matched pair of front calipers. It is a front-axle kit developed for this platform’s demands, not a generic disc-and-pad combination with a compatibility sticker.
What this brake kit does for your 1993-1997 Toyota Corona Exsior
FWD load transfer under braking concentrates almost all deceleration force at the front axle, and the Exsior’s modest original specification leaves headroom this kit exploits. The two-piece floating disc reduces rotating and unsprung mass at the front wheels, which affects both pedal feel and brake consistency over a sustained run, and lets the iron ring expand against its alloy bell without coning. Lower rotational inertia translates to a pedal that responds cleanly from initial application rather than building through the vague first third of travel that worn-out OE iron delivers.
The three pad compounds let the specification follow the car’s actual use. Street is the quiet, low-dust default for a preserved daily that rarely sees real heat. Sport is the right choice for a driver using the Exsior’s chassis properly on winding roads. Racing is there for the owner who has taken this saloon to a hillclimb or track session, where sustained thermal loading is the benchmark. The included calipers come painted in Red, Yellow, Gold, Black, or Anodized Black at no extra cost.
About the XYZ Racing Hollow Front Brake Kit
The caliper is a hollow-body forging as standard, and the two-piece disc carries hollow vanes that cut rotating mass at the front axle without reducing the friction contact area. A lighter rotor dissipates heat faster under sustained loads, resists thermal warping through repeated hard application, and adds less gyroscopic resistance to front-axle inputs than a heavier equivalent. On a front-driven car like the Exsior that reduction in rotating inertia is felt through the steering during a braking event, with less mass to overcome when the wheel changes direction mid-stop.
Three compounds are included because the Corona Exsior’s ownership in 2026 spans preserved originals, enthusiast road cars, and active motorsport. The Racing compound needs proper heat cycling to perform and is not suited to cold, short-stop urban use, a distinction worth understanding before specifying. Discs come drilled or slotted at the same price, and the centre bell can be upgraded to a two-tone anodized finish in five colours or to titanium when you order. Beyond the included painted colours you can specify any Pantone as a Custom Color for £150, a premium polished-forged Titanium, Polished Gold, or Polished Silver, or a candy Teal, Blue, Red, or Orange. Serious track users can add the optional Hollow Racing caliper, rated to 1000C with no dust cover and a two-year warranty.
Fitment for the Toyota Corona Exsior (1993-1997)
This front brake kit covers the Toyota Corona Exsior across the full 1993 to 1997 production span. It is engineered for the front axle of the Exsior’s FWD drivetrain, and the front-specific design reflects the load demands that layout places on the leading brakes.

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.
