PERFECT UPGRADE FOR YOUR HIGH-PERFORMANCE VEHICLE
The Z26 Street Warrior brake pad and hardware kit is recommended for high performance, high horsepower muscle and modified cars. The Carbon-Fiber Ceramic pads provide shorter stops under the most demanding conditions. The PowerStop Z26 Street Warrior Performance Upgrade brake pads are the only bolt-on upgrade that deliver more than just the braking power you need to rein in all those ponies, though. With our low dust and noise formula, you’ll spend less time cleaning those wheels and more time enjoying what matters most – the drive.
Power Stop Z26 Street Warrior carbon fiber-ceramic brake pads for your 2018-2020 Subaru STI are made for high performance street drivers who demand shorter stops under the most demanding conditions. Their brake torque is consistently higher than OE pads with outstanding thermal stability. These pads are best suited for high-horsepower cars and big wheel upgrades. They feature a hybrid carbon fiber and ceramic compound that resists fade up to 1,500 degrees. With Power Stop Z26 pads, you can count on superior pad bite without dusty wheels!
BREAK-IN PROCEDURE
The break-in procedure is critical to brake performance. The reason for a proper break-in is to establish an even layer of friction material deposited on the rotors from the brake pads. It is very important that this initial layer of friction material is evenly distributed.
- Step 1: Complete 5 moderate to aggressive stops from 40 mph down to 10 mph in rapid succession without letting the brakes cool and do not come to a complete stop. If you're forced to stop, complete the stop and either shift the vehicle into park or give room in front so you can allow the vehicle to roll slightly while waiting for the track light. The rotors will be very hot and holding down the brake pedal will force the brake pad to contact the rotor and possibly create an imprint on the rotor. This imprint may contribute to the creation of brake judder.
- Step 2: Continue the break in by completing 5 moderate stops from 35 mph to 5 mph in rapid succession without letting the brakes cool. You should expect to smell some resin as the brakes get hot. After this is complete, continue to drive the vehicle for as long as possible without heating the brakes excessively and without coming to a complete stop (Try for about 5 minutes at moderate speed). This is the cooling stage.
- Step 3: Once this is completed and the brakes have cooled to standard operating temperature, you may use the brakes normally. Never cool your brakes with water, as this can damage them.
