Subaru WRX Brake Kit Guide: Performance Upgrade

The Subaru WRX is a rally-bred sedan that sees everything from daily commutes to autocross. Factory brakes fade on track and wear quickly with aggressive street driving and winter salt exposure.

Ghost Brakes offers a complete bolt-on brake kit for the Subaru WRX - G11H18 1-piece drilled and slotted rotors with carbon ceramic pads, GEOMET coating, and lifetime warranty. No caliper modifications required.

Why Subaru WRX Brakes Need an Upgrade

Factory brakes on the Subaru WRX are engineered for normal street driving - moderate speeds, light loads, and occasional hard stops. Push beyond that envelope with track days, towing, off-road use, or repeated spirited driving, and pad fade, rotor warp, and excessive dust become the limiting factors.

Ghost Brakes addresses all three failure modes with a matched rotor-and-pad system: drilled and slotted rotors for heat evacuation, GEOMET coating for corrosion resistance, and carbon ceramic pads for stable friction under heat and 60% less dust than OEM.
