2-Piece Rear Performance Powder-Coated Brake Caliper Set

Vibrant Style and Enhanced Durability for Subaru Forester, Impreza, and WRX

Upgrade your vehicle's braking system with this premium Rear Performance Brake Caliper Set. Engineered for enthusiasts who demand both aesthetic appeal and reliable stopping power, these calipers feature a high-visibility Red Powder Coating. This specialized finish not only provides a custom performance look behind your spokes but also acts as a robust barrier against road salt, moisture, and brake dust corrosion—common enemies of standard cast-iron calipers.

Each unit in this set is a direct-replacement performance upgrade, pressure-tested to ensure zero-leak operation and consistent hydraulic response. Whether you are refreshing a high-mileage Forester or enhancing the track-inspired look of your WRX, this kit delivers the reliability of a new component with the visual impact of a performance-tier modification.

Installation and Technical Tips

• Banjo Bolt Preparation: When transferring your brake lines to the new performance calipers, always use the new copper crush washers provided. Clean the banjo bolt surface thoroughly to ensure a high-pressure seal that won't weep fluid over time.

• Powder Coat Care: To maintain the vibrant red finish, avoid using harsh, acid-based wheel cleaners directly on the calipers. A mild soap and water solution is sufficient to remove brake dust without dulling the protective coating.

• Slide Pin Lubrication: For optimal performance, ensure the caliper slide pins are coated with a thin layer of high-temperature silicone brake lubricant. This prevents the "floating" caliper from sticking, which can cause uneven pad wear and reduce braking efficiency.

• Hydraulic Bleeding: After installation, a full system bleed is required. Start at the rear passenger side (furthest from the master cylinder) and work your way forward. Use fresh DOT 3 or DOT 4 fluid to ensure the boiling point remains high for performance driving.
