Description
Upgrade your braking performance with the FactionFab V2 Brake Pads for 2022+ Subaru WRX Front Brakes, engineered for enthusiasts seeking reliable stopping power, excellent pedal feel, and consistent performance across daily driving, autocross, and light track applications.
Designed as a versatile Stage 1 performance brake pad, the FactionFab V2 pads deliver a balanced combination of street comfort and high-performance capability. Utilizing a premium semi-metallic compound, these brake pads provide improved heat management compared to traditional organic or ceramic compounds by efficiently transferring and dissipating heat during demanding driving conditions.
Whether you're commuting, carving corners, competing in autocross events, or attending occasional track days, the V2 Brake Pads provide predictable braking performance, strong initial bite, and excellent modulation without excessive noise or harsh street characteristics.
The semi-metallic friction material delivers a consistent 0.39µ average coefficient of friction with strong cold-temperature performance reaching 0.44µ, making these pads ideal for both everyday driving and performance-focused applications. Their stable thermal characteristics ensure reliable braking performance even during repeated high-stress braking situations.
Engineered with OE-style fitment, these pads feature precision-cut backing plates, gas slots, chamfers, and textured steel shims to reduce vibration, minimize brake noise, improve heat dissipation, and extend pad life.

Performance Benefits
Consistent Street & Performance Braking
The V2 semi-metallic compound provides dependable stopping power for daily driving while maintaining the thermal stability needed for spirited driving and light track use.
Improved Heat Management
Unlike organic and ceramic compounds that can retain heat due to resin content, the semi-metallic material efficiently transfers heat away from the friction surface, helping maintain consistent braking performance.
Reduced Noise & Vibration
OE-style chamfers, gas slots, and precision backing plates help reduce brake vibration and unwanted noise for a more refined driving experience.
