Powerstop on my Durango RT. Never an issue and been great for years.
I've ended up with Power Stop on 3 Fords (Fusion, Escape, and Focus) and an Infiniti (Q50 3.0t AWD) and have been happy. Plus it's easy to just buy one kit and everything shows up together. I tend not to use their grease (I have a big tube of sil-glyde in the toolbox) and their retention springs for the rear calipers on the Escape didn't fit (this is not uncommon with other brands I've had on it as well). I've also had very good results with AKebono and used to swear by Wagner ThermoQuiet pads until I had trouble getting them a couple years ago and got the Power Stop parts.
Have the powerstop z36 on my gen 1. Next to non brake dust compared to the oem pads/rotors
Power Stop pads and rotors on my Ram 1500 are the best setup I have ever had. Nearly zero dust and consistent braking.
I used PowerStop (cross drilled) when I did my brakes two years ago. They seem pretty good.
I have Power Stop brakes on both my Miata (Z26) and my 3 (Z17). Been on for about 45k km on the 3 and 20k km on the Miata. Absolutely fantastic brakes... The Miata gets driven hard and the brakes have been flawless and powerful. The 3 is a daily driver and the brakes are better than OEM, but not to the point where they'd change the character of the car.
I put Powerstop geomet brakes on my '15 over the winter and they have been solid. I've been pretty happy. They also don't look rusty at all so far.
I installed PowerStop Drilled & Slotted Rotors with PowerStop Pads on my front brake setup. VERY powerful brakes and never had any issues with dust, noise, etc.
Love their fully rotors. Hate the brake pads. Ceramic Brake pads in my experiences with 5 cars throw off a lot of dust!
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
