Fits Holden COMMODORE (1999-2003)

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 — Holden COMMODORE (1999-2003) — 330 mm
330 mm

The 1999-2003 Holden Commodore wears its mass well until the brakes are asked to deal with it repeatedly. VT Series II and VX-generation models, including the LS1 V8 SS variants, carry around 1,700 kilograms of rear-wheel-drive saloon, and the stock front braking hardware was not designed with sustained hard driving in mind. The XYZ Racing front big brake kit addresses that directly.

Three pad compounds are specified at the point of order. That spread covers the genuine range of use this platform sees, from motorway commuting to back-road driving to organised track days where the front axle takes repeated large deceleration loads.

What this brake kit does for your 1999-2003 Holden Commodore

The front brakes carry most of the deceleration load on any large rear-wheel-drive car, and on a Commodore that means managing the momentum of 1,700 kilograms each time the pedal goes down. Street is the quiet, low-dust compound for a car that covers the majority of its miles on public roads. Sport raises the bite threshold and extends temperature tolerance, the right grade for drivers who push hard without moving into circuit use. Racing handles repeated high-energy stops without progressive fade building through a session. The enlarged hollow-vane disc gives the swept area and heat capacity a 1,700kg saloon demands, and discs are offered drilled or slotted at the same price.

About the front big brake kit

The XYZ Racing front big brake kit is a complete front-axle braking upgrade for the 1999-2003 Holden Commodore, shipping as a matched pair of front calipers and discs. The disc construction puts thermal management under sustained braking ahead of everything else, a practical requirement on a heavy saloon rather than a marketing claim. The caliper is a hollow-body design as standard, with an optional Hollow Racing upgrade, rated to 1000C, supplied without a dust cover and carrying a two-year warranty, for serious track use.

Pad compound is selected at order stage from three grades, Street for predominantly road use, Sport for spirited driving with improved heat tolerance, and Racing for track-day applications. Included caliper colours are Red, Yellow, Gold, Black, and Anodized Black at no extra cost. A Custom Color in any Pantone is available for an added charge, with premium polished-forged finishes in Titanium, Polished Gold, and Polished Silver and a candy range in Teal, Blue, Red, and Orange above the painted set. Centre bell upgrades are offered in five anodized two-tone colours or titanium, selectable at checkout. As a front-positioned kit, it addresses the axle that does the majority of the braking work on this generation of Commodore.

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.
