Description
Upgrade your braking system with the FactionFab V2 Front Brake Pads for 2015-2021 Subaru WRX, engineered for enthusiasts who demand reliable stopping power, precise pedal control, and consistent performance during daily driving, autocross, and light track use.
Designed as a versatile Stage 1 performance brake pad, the FactionFab V2 series delivers an ideal balance of aggressive street performance and everyday comfort. These pads utilize a premium semi-metallic friction compound that provides excellent heat management, allowing consistent braking performance even during repeated high-stress braking situations.
Unlike organic and ceramic brake compounds that can retain heat due to their resin content, the semi-metallic formulation used in the V2 pads efficiently transfers and dissipates heat through its metal composition. This results in improved thermal stability, predictable braking behavior, and dependable stopping performance across a wide range of temperatures.
With a 0.39µ average coefficient of friction and 0.44µ cold coefficient, FactionFab V2 Front Brake Pads provide strong initial response, excellent modulation, and reliable stopping power for daily driving, spirited road use, and autocross events.
Precision-engineered OE-style backing plates, gas slots, chamfers, and textured steel shims ensure proper fitment, reduced vibration, improved heat dissipation, and extended pad durability.
