Product Description

The PowerStop Z23-1365 is a front brake pad set engineered specifically for performance vehicles equipped with Brembo 4-piston front calipers - covering the 2008-2014 Lexus IS F, 2013-2014 Ford Mustang with Brembo package, and 2018-2020 Subaru WRX STI. The Z23 carbon-fiber infused ceramic formula steps up stopping power over stock pads while keeping dust levels low and brake noise virtually eliminated, making it a practical upgrade for street-driven performance vehicles that still need to be livable day to day.

Each pad is precision manufactured using positive mold technology for consistent friction density across the full pad face, and the powder-coated backing plate adds corrosion protection that extends service life. Installation hardware and ceramic lubricant are included for a complete, tool-ready pad swap. These pads are for the front axle only and are designed as a direct replacement for the OE Brembo pad compound - verify your Mustang is equipped with the Brembo caliper option before ordering, as non-Brembo Mustang trims require a different pad.
