Does the BRZ Get Pad Knockback
Just wondering if the BRZ suffers from pad knockback. I don't think it would, but just want to confirm before getting a BRZ. Thanks!

I've had no issues (track, autocross, street), and haven't heard of anyone else having issues.

The pad-knockback issue was with the 04 STi due to the brembos and the 5x100 hubs/bearings. As the smaller 5x100 bearings would flex the face of the rotor would knockback the pads in the turns and then you would have to double pump the brakes to get pedal at the end of the front straights.
With the advent of the newer style bearings, even those who have put brembos on the 5x100 05+ Leg and 08+ WRX, there hasn't been much chatter of pad knockback to my knowledge.
