For a rear brake service on the listed Subaru applications, the Z17 range combines a low-dust ceramic formula with stainless-steel installation hardware. Part 17-2118 covers the 2018-2021 WRX STi and the specifically listed 2024 WRX TR and 2025 WRX TS, not all WRX trims.

Key features

  • Low-dust ceramic friction material: Formulated for daily-driver stock replacement.
  • Installation hardware: The Z17 range includes stainless-steel hardware; the specific pieces supplied depend on the application.
  • Noise-control design: Dual-layer rubberized shims, chamfers and slots help reduce braking noise.
  • Pad construction: OE-style positive molding supports consistent wear and performance.
  • Surface preparation: Thermally scorched pad surfaces support faster initial break-in. Follow the applicable installation and bedding instructions.
  • Backing-plate finish: Powder coating helps resist rust and corrosion.

Subaru WRX Parts and Accessories

Shop Subaru WRX exhaust applications by chassis, engine and existing system. Compare axle-back, cat-back and conversion-kit coverage before choosing sound character or tip finish. VA, GV and VB Applications Match the exact chassis and body listed for each system. A shared WRX/STI title does not establish compatibility across every generation, engine or sedan/hatch configuration. Axle-backs replace the rear section, while cat-backs include additional piping. Confirm current mid-section interfaces and the complete supplied components. Touring, Track and Conversion Choices For the VB suite, Touring uses drone-control technology while Track prioritizes a more pronounced sound. Consider everyday cabin sound and the manufacturer’s exact product guidance. A Track-to-Touring conversion requires the supported starting exhaust. Confirm conversion direction, existing part number and whether selected tips or hardware are included. Choose Your Part Identify exact chassis, engine and body. Choos...

Shop Subaru WRX STI exhaust and cabin-accessory applications by exact chassis and body. Match GV/VA system coverage and distinguish STI-specific requirements from other WRX listings. Exhaust Application and Sound Confirm exact year, chassis, engine and sedan/hatch layout before selecting a system. A WRX-led title should not be extended to STI without explicit manufacturer support. Compare Touring and Track sound character for the actual use. Choose the correct application before tip diameter or finish. Conversion Kits and Supporting Accessories A Track-to-Touring kit modifies a compatible existing exhaust. Verify the starting part number, conversion direction and complete contents instead of treating it as a cat-back. Floor liners require matching cabin contours and coverage; fog-light kits need the correct bumper/brackets and wiring. Pedal controllers independently require exact vehicle and connector support.
