The Story
Front Brake Kit for Subaru Impreza and Legacy
Dynamite Friction DFC GEOSPEC Coated Rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads - Ceramic and Hardware, part number 4512-13043, is a front disc brake kit built for select Subaru applications. It combines coated rotors, ceramic brake pads, and matching hardware components in one service package for a cleaner brake job on compatible front axle applications.
- Fits 1997-2001 Subaru Impreza, front
- Fits 1997-2000 Subaru Legacy, front
- DFC GEOSPEC coated rotors with a silver-gray corrosion-resistant finish
- Dry-processed rotors ready for installation without oil removal
- G3000/G11H18 cast iron rotor construction for OE-style durability and stability
- Non-directional rotor finish for more even pad bed-in and smoother braking
- DFC 5000 Advanced ceramic pads with post-cured friction material
- Scorched pads to reduce initial break-in time
- Premium rubber-steel-rubber shims for improved noise and vibration control
- Hardware kit designed with PTFE coating, vulcanized rubber, and stainless steel
Product Line Details
The DFC GEOSPEC rotor line is engineered for corrosion resistance and consistent fitment, while the 5000 Advanced pad line focuses on stable friction performance and reduced noise. Together, they create a front brake service kit for drivers looking for an OE-style replacement on a Subaru Impreza front brake kit or Subaru Legacy front brake kit application. Part number 4512-13043 is also a useful reference when searching for a front brake rotor and pad kit for these vehicles.
Common Brake Issues This Kit Can Address
- Brake pulsation from worn or uneven rotors
- Noise caused by fatigued or corroded hardware
- Reduced stopping performance from worn pads
- Uneven pad wear from aged caliper hardware
- Rust buildup on exposed rotor surfaces
Installation Notes
Use this kit on the front axle only for the listed Subaru applications. The rotors are shipped dry and do not require oil cleaning before installation. Follow standard brake service procedures, inspect calipers and guide pins during replacement, and verify pad bedding after installation. Part number 4512-13043 should be matched to the vehicle’s year, make, model, and front position before ordering.
Quality Assurance
DFC rotors are machined to tight tolerances, finished with a non-directional surface, and inspected for balance and critical dimensions to meet OE specifications. The rotors include a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship.
