There are many variables to consider when participating in a track or autocross event. One of the most important aspects is your braking system and the stopping power available at any given time. Proper braking is crucial for safety and performance. Aggressive driving generates significant heat in your braking system due to frequent and intense use. Problems arise when that heat transfers into your brake calipers, causing them to overheat. When this happens, the fluid inside your calipers can reach its maximum temperature and start to boil. This boiling fluid can lead to brake fade, reducing the effectiveness of your braking system and potentially creating dangerous situations on the track.

One solution is to place a thermal barrier between the back of the pad and the caliper piston, which slows the transfer of heat into the caliper and fluid. FactionFab Titanium Brake Shims do just that. Available for a wide range of Subaru applications, FactionFab Brake Shims are an easy way to protect against fading brakes and potential brake failure. Titanium has very low heat conductivity compared to steel, and placing a thin 1.0mm piece of titanium between the two surfaces insulates and dissipates heat faster than steel shims. This simple mod increases your brake performance while qualifying for almost all *SCCA and *NASA classes. If you want more hot laps on your track sessions while extending brake pad life, FactionFab Titanium Brake Shims are exactly what you need. *Check official SCCA and NASA rules

QUICK SPECS:

  • 4 Shims included in each kit
  • Made of CP3 / Grade 2 Titanium (alloy with great bending characteristics), which has very low heat conductivity compared to steel.
  • Shims are 1.0mm thick (better insulation compared to the 0.5mm thick competitors)
  • Acts as a thermal barrier to reduce heat transfer from the brake pad to the caliper piston.
  • Helps prevent brake fade and potential brake failure, extending brake pad life and improving performance on the track.

Why Drivers Choose FAST of West Chester

  • I can't recommend this place enough. Being able to trust a shop in the performance world is big. The 2hr drive to get there, is worth knowing the job will be done right. Very happy to have found this shop, to
    support my builds going forward.


    Donald Wojnar
  • I recently had the pleasure of working with FAST of West Chester for some performance upgrades on my 2022 WRX, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. I opted for a Borla S-Type exhaust and Cygnus Coilovers, and the team at FAST nailed the installation, fitment, and setup to a T.


    Adam Cranston
  • The team at FAST are excellence in every way. First, I consulted with Dave on mods for my HPDE track car. He listened and advised me on the best parts & mods to achieve my goals. He was patient & gave me space to research the options presented & worked with me through several changes before we built. Second, the build execution was flawless, proper heat shielding, bracing and poly everywhere. All components worked as advertised.


    Bryce Budd
  • This place has been my go to shop for all things Subaru. From simple service to performance parts and tuning, they have been top notch.


    William Brunell
  • Excellent shop. They installed a Cobb Stage 2 DP and Whiteline Sway bars and end links on my 2013 WRX. The work was done right and clean. The estimate was accurate. They were very knowledgeable, friendly and gave me the straight scoop on exactly what I was getting for the money
    and what I needed to get where I want to be with it. I'd recommend them
    to any car enthusiast.
