stock rotors + carbotech 10/8 setup

Corsairprime · 01-31-2017, 12:34 PM

I ran the same stock rotor and carbotech pad combo on my Nismo until just last weekend. I track the car 5+ times a year here in Texas. My rotors finally warped and I got the Z1 2 piece fronts and 1 piece rears. Both slotted. Still using XP10/8 for track, and 1521s for the street. Mileage at swap, 56400. Happy with the results. Expecting better cooling at the track this season. Good luck with your selection.

Thank you for your input! Could you explain why you went with 1 piece rears? And are 1521s quiet?

Thanks everyone for all of this information

Usually its because of cost. A set of 2-piece rear rotors is actually more expensive than a set of 2-piece front rotors because the rears have to accommodate the e-brake drum.
