I had to do a hard stop last week in my all stock 23 wrx and was surprised how fast it stopped.
The wrx pedal feel is actually decent, alright top end bite and it only shows it’s a smaller set of brakes when you’re further down the travel. Are the stock brakes adequate for the car and weight? YES. they do a good job imo to mimic the brake feel of cars with bigger calipers while also being smaller due to the cars price et .
The brakes on my '23 Limited are as good as or better than any car I've driven recently.
these brakes do the job well.
None of their brakes were as good as my VB or my 17 Outback.
I personally don’t like the way my wrx brakes. That’s just my personal preference. But yes the car brakes just fine for every day driving and isn’t a problem.
I didnt care for the feel of the pedal. Actual performance of the brakes is fine.
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
The WRX has brakes that are worse than all of them. It takes an amount of pedal pressure that had me check if the power brakes were working. The brakes on the WRX are ass.
