XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit — Volkswagen SCIROCCO (2008-2017)

The Mk3 Scirocco carries most of its mass over the nose, so the rear axle spends its life lightly loaded – which is exactly why the standard rear discs glaze and lose feel on a circuit while the fronts are still doing the real work. The XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit for the Volkswagen Scirocco (2008-2017) puts a larger disc at the back to restore brake balance and keep rear retardation honest under repeat heavy stops.

Built around a hollow-vane disc to shed rotating and unsprung mass, this rear kit suits owners running the PQ35-platform Scirocco – from the 2.0 TDI GT to the 265bhp Scirocco R – who want stable pedal feel across a full session rather than a single big stop.

What this big brake kit does for your 2008-2017 Volkswagen Scirocco

On a front-driven coupe like the Scirocco, the payoff from a rear upgrade is stability under braking. A larger rear disc adds thermal mass, so the back axle resists fade and holds a steady bias when you trail-brake into a tightening corner. The hollow-vane disc trims weight at each rear corner, which sharpens how quickly the wheels respond to brake and throttle inputs. Run the Racing pad compound and the rear stays composed deep into a track session instead of going soft after a handful of hard stops; the Street compound gives quieter, lower-dust manners for daily use, with Sport adding more bite and heat range for a spirited fast-road run. The net effect is a Scirocco that settles on turn-in and rotates more willingly, because the rear is finally carrying its share of the braking load.

About the Hollow Rear Brake Kit

The Hollow Rear Brake Kit takes its name from its hollow-vane disc, which removes material where it isn’t needed to lower rotating and unsprung mass without giving up the swept area and heat capacity a track rear demands. The two-piece floating discs are supplied as a matched left-and-right pair and run on a position-specific rear caliper sized for the Scirocco’s rear hub. That caliper is hollow-cast as standard, with a Hollow Racing upgrade for serious track use that drops the dust cover, is rated to 1000C and carries a two-year warranty. XYZ Racing offers three pad compounds: Street for quiet, low-dust everyday driving, Sport for fast-road drivers who want more initial bite and heat tolerance, and Racing for circuit work where outright fade resistance matters most. Discs come drilled or slotted at the same price, and braided lines keep the pedal firm under heat. Calipers can be specified in Red, Yellow, Gold, Black or Anodized Black at no extra cost, with Custom Color in any Pantone, polished-forged Titanium, Polished Gold or Polished Silver, and candy finishes in Teal, Blue, Red or Orange, so the hardware behind the wheels matches the rest of the car. It is a bolt-on rear setup aimed squarely at lifting thermal headroom over the factory brakes.
