The Story
Rear Brake Kit for Subaru Legacy and Impreza
The DFC GEOSPEC Coated Rotors with 5000 Advanced Brake Pads - Ceramic and Hardware kit is built for rear brake service on select Subaru Legacy and Subaru Impreza applications. Part number 4512-13044 combines coated rotors, ceramic pads, and matching hardware in one service kit for a cleaner brake job.
- Rear disc brake kit for select Subaru Legacy and Subaru Impreza models
- DFC GEOSPEC coated rotors with a silver-gray corrosion-resistant finish
- 5000 Advanced ceramic brake pads with post-cured friction material
- Scorched pads for reduced break-in time and more immediate stopping response
- Premium rubber-steel-rubber shims for improved noise, vibration, and harshness control
- Hardware designed with PTFE coating, vulcanized rubber, and stainless steel construction
- Rotors machined to tight tolerances with a non-directional finish for smoother pad bedding
Product Line Details
DFC Complete Brake Kits are organized to simplify brake service by combining the main wear components needed for a single axle. The GEOSPEC rotor line is processed dry and ready to install, while the 5000 Advanced pad line is formulated for stable friction performance across a range of driving conditions. Together, they provide a matched rear brake service solution for Subaru Legacy and Subaru Impreza rear brake maintenance.
Fitment
- Fits 1995-1999 Subaru Legacy, rear
- Fits 1998 Subaru Impreza, rear; vehicle production date to 6/98
- Fits 1993-1996 Subaru Impreza, rear
- Fits 1990-1994 Subaru Legacy, rear
Common Repair Uses
- Rear brake noise from worn pads or fatigued hardware
- Uneven braking feel caused by rotor wear or corrosion
- Reduced stopping performance from aged friction material
- Brake pulsation related to rotor surface condition
- Service intervals where pads, rotors, and hardware are replaced together
Installation Notes
Confirm rear axle fitment by year, model, and the listed production-date note for the 1998 Subaru Impreza before ordering. The coated rotors are shipped dry and ready to install, which helps reduce prep time during service. For best results, clean all mating surfaces, inspect caliper operation, and follow proper pad bedding procedures after installation. Part number 4512-13044 is intended for rear brake service only on the listed Subaru applications.
Quality Assurance
DFC rotors are manufactured to OE-style specifications using G3000/G11H18 cast iron, then inspected for critical dimensions and balance. Each rotor includes a 12-month warranty against defects in material and workmanship. The 5000 Advanced pads are post-cured, scorched, and assembled with premium shims to support consistent friction and quieter operation.
