In this review the TRQ Rear Brake Pads Ceramic are evaluated for owners of 1990-1996 Nissan 300ZX and 2006-2007 Subaru Impreza WRX seeking an affordable, direct-fit replacement. The bottom line: these ceramic pads deliver reliable stopping power and a familiar feel close to original equipment while making installation easier with pre-assembled, direct-replacement components. For a DIYer who wants straightforward fitment guidance and video support, these pads offer strong value, though some buyers should double-check fitment before ordering.
Key Features
- Ceramic friction material: Provides consistent brake feel and reduced dust compared with many semi-metallic compounds, helping keep wheels cleaner.
- Direct-fit design: Pre-assembled components match OE form to reduce installation time and avoid modifications during replacement.
- Compatibility reference numbers: Includes reference numbers such as 26696FE070 and PGD461M to assist confirming correct fit for listed vehicles.
- Extensive DIY video library: TRQ offers a large catalog of installation videos so owners can view procedures before attempting the job themselves.
- Bonded friction attachment: The ceramic friction is bonded to the backing plate for consistent wear and secure attachment under normal use.
Who It's For
These pads are best suited for owners of 1990-1996 Nissan 300ZX and 2006-2007 Subaru Impreza WRX who want a ceramic, direct-replacement pad that mimics stock feel and offers straightforward DIY installation. The integrated video resources make them a solid option for home mechanics who prefer to "view before they do" to reduce install-time uncertainty.
Shoppers who need uncommon sizes, aftermarket performance pads for track use, or a guaranteed silent fit for vehicles outside the listed years should look elsewhere. Also, because some customers reported fit discrepancies, anyone unsure of exact fitment should confirm fit using the vehicle fitment tool or full compatibility chart before purchase.
