The right fluid (the purpose of this thread) and good pads make all the difference with any setup. Some cooling helps as well.

STI Brembos are the same and it weighs about the same, so same issues, but even the smaller WRX setup is OK with good stuff. Not race ready, but trackable...

Going off due to lack of brakes means they weren't paying attention. Brakes seldom fail all at once. Ignore fade at your own risk.
