Brake pads OEM Subaru or OEM Porsche

the brakes are way better and more responsive than our old Nissan.

the subarus brakes feel and stop great, but can get pretty hot in spirited street driving.

Every single time I install non OEM brakes on my Subaru they warp within a year, my Subaru brakes always last me 3+years. I have replaced about a dozen brake kits in my driveways. The Subaru brakes are the best.

i had this same work done on mine after i brought her home last year. cost about the same (im in a HCOL area). did the air filters myself, saved a few bucks. but everything else: brakes, spark plugs, etc... 08's are a .1, if its yours, might as well add in a borescopes through the plugs for piece of mind!

We have a 2019 Crosstrek Limited with Eyesight and no sunroof that my fianc\u00e9 bought new and now has ~78k miles on it. Zero mechanical issues, did the brakes at around 75k miles, and did have the head unit die earlier this year, which was not fun (Subaru of America thankfully warrantied the unit after reaching out to them). Interior wears pretty well considering she doesn't take care of the car much and she often takes our 2 large dogs around in it. For the money, I think they are hard to beat, even with the CVT.

Had the same issue with my 987.2 S, ended up upgrading to a GT3 master cylinder and brake ducts, giro disc rotors and RS29 pads. Obviously running decent brake fluid and change it regularly. It’s now great and can handle many laps of Oulton Park without fading.

My wife has 2014 XT since new and we are at 93k miles all stock brakes including rotors and pads. The only thing changed was brake fluid as part of regular maintenance interval.

Reacquainting with traditional brakes felt strange. Kept releasing the accelerator, expecting it to brake. Takes getting used to.

Macan GTS’ are going through hell right now with PSCB brakes. Plenty of tickets just saying to replace the pads and rotors and customer to monitor lmao.

I had my brakes replaced in January of this year and the dealership didn't charge me. Within about 4 months they started squealing again. I took it back and they basically told me to pound sand. I shouldn't need a 3rd set of brakes on a car with 30k miles. This has been very disappointing and really soured my opinion of Subaru.
