Description
Upgrade your braking performance with the FactionFab V2 Rear Brake Pads, engineered for high-performance Subaru applications requiring consistent stopping power, excellent modulation, and reliable thermal control. Designed for 2018-2021 Subaru STI models and 2024+ Subaru WRX TR / TS models equipped with the upgraded Brembo brake system, these pads provide the perfect balance of daily driving comfort, autocross capability, and light track performance.
The FactionFab V2 Brake Pads feature a premium semi-metallic friction compound designed to deliver consistent braking performance while efficiently managing heat under demanding conditions. Unlike organic and ceramic compounds that can retain heat due to resin content, the semi-metallic material composition allows faster heat dissipation, helping maintain predictable brake response during repeated high-temperature braking events.
Built as a versatile Stage 1 performance brake pad, the V2 compound offers a 0.39µ average coefficient of friction and 0.44µ cold coefficient, providing strong initial bite, smooth modulation, and reliable stopping power in both everyday driving and performance environments.
Precision-engineered with OE-style backing plates, gas slots, chamfers, and textured steel shims, these pads provide proper fitment, reduced vibration, improved heat transfer, and extended pad life. Whether you are commuting, attending autocross events, or enjoying occasional track days, FactionFab V2 Rear Brake Pads deliver dependable braking performance without excessive noise or harsh street characteristics.
