2016 nismo brakes

Just my 2 cents from my recent upgrade,
Upgraded the sport brake package with Z-1 two piece front rotors, slotted /drilled combo. Nismo Pads, Brake ducts into the wheelwell area. Had the brake ducts connected into the backing plates previously but when I saw how the Z-1, 2 -piece rotors have freed up hub area to allow a better flow of air through the vanes of the disc, I did away with the hose connections and decided to trim the backing plates, Besides the hoses start to tear up over time and have to be replaced, I' m sure others may have other opinions but for but I don't feel there is an issue here. Also the stock brake lines work fine for the street, just up grade the brake fluid.
As for the rear, went with a standard 1 piece rotor slotted and drilled, matched dam close to the front, The rear 2 -piece are expensive and I couldn't justified the cost vs benefit.
That's my set-up and I'm happy with it!
