Description
Upgrade your vehicle’s braking performance with the FactionFab V2 Rear Brake Pads, engineered specifically for CVT-equipped Subaru WRX models that require dependable stopping power, excellent pedal modulation, and consistent performance for daily driving, autocross, and light track applications.
Designed as a versatile Stage 1 performance brake pad, the FactionFab V2 series delivers the ideal balance between aggressive street performance and everyday drivability. These pads feature a premium semi-metallic friction compound that provides excellent heat management, allowing them to maintain consistent braking performance during repeated stops and demanding driving conditions.
Unlike traditional organic or ceramic compounds that can retain heat due to resin content, the semi-metallic formulation efficiently transfers and dissipates heat through its metal composition. This results in improved thermal stability, predictable braking behavior, and reliable performance when temperatures increase.
The FactionFab V2 Rear Brake Pads provide a strong and consistent friction profile with a 0.39µ average coefficient of friction and 0.44µ cold coefficient, delivering dependable stopping power for daily commuting, spirited driving, and autocross events.
Engineered with OE-style fitment, these brake pads feature precision backing plates, gas slots, chamfers, and textured steel shims to reduce vibration, improve heat dissipation, minimize noise, and extend pad life.

Performance Benefits
Reliable Street & Auto-X Performance
The FactionFab V2 semi-metallic compound provides consistent stopping power for everyday driving while maintaining the thermal stability needed for autocross and light performance use.
Improved Heat Management
The semi-metallic construction efficiently transfers heat away from the friction surface, helping reduce brake fade and maintain consistent performance during repeated braking.
Smooth & Predictable Braking Feel
The balanced friction characteristics deliver excellent modulation, allowing precise brake control in both normal and aggressive driving conditions.
Long-Lasting Durability
High-quality materials, OE-style backing plates, and reinforced shim designs help improve pad life while reducing unwanted brake noise.
