Any cross drilled and/or slotted rotor upgrades you can recommend for the Z?
I will probably be matching them with Hawk pads.


Thanks in advance.
/\ I'd say you have two "budget" options:

1. just do fluid, lines, and pads and keep the stock base calipers.

2. upgrade to the sport package akebono oem brake calipers/rotors and still do the fluid, lines, and pads. Z1 sells an upgrade kit along with some of the other vendors I'm sure.

The stock sport package rotors aren't bad, they're not "blingy" like a set of dba slotted and or cross drilled ones, but they function just fine on track or street.
