BRZ is roomier, neutral steering and has the best feel brakes of any car that I’ve owned including the S2k.
better steering, better brakes
I went 87k on oe brakes.
125K on a 2018. Factory pads and rotors. All even wear and still far from the squealer tabs.
2021 with 87k miles. I'll probably need to change the pads in the next 15k-20k miles.
the VB brakes are fine until they get really hot at which point they fade badly.
personally, yeah i don't find the brakes to be particularly worse than my other non performance cars. i did feel like that at first but once i got used to it it was no issue.
The base model brakes on the 2022 WRX are the least confidence inspiring brakes I’ve ever encountered.
I find the brakes in the 25 WRX to be soft and not a lot of bite in them. If Im braking and need to apply more brake pedal if feels as if nothing is happening brake wise from my initial depress. I'd like more bite with the pads.
Mechanically, the wrx brakes are fine, but the feel is so freakin stiff compared to other cars that it really takes a bit to get used to. In emergency braking, you press the pedal thinking you'll stop fine, but you don't press hard enough and come in faster than you thought, press down harder and it's still not triggering abs, and you crash. It's so damn hard to trigger ABS in this car
