Steel rotors on 370z?

it's absolutely ridiculous that you're talking about the marginal performance benefit of rotors when you are doing absolutely no performance driving, you are being a total bench racing poser if

if you DID want to drive the car fast, there's way more crap you'd need to learn and worry about then ******* rotors

You drive your car on the street with no performance context, just replace your brakes with autozone stuff and put the bench racing crap away

Why are you assuming I don't drive my car hard occasionally? I didn't feel it necessary to explain everything I've done to the car in terms of straight line performance.

I don't know who **** in your cornflakes this morning but come on man, it's his car, he's perfectly allowed to run a more performance brake setup if he so chooses without justification to you or anyone else.

I don't track my car yet I opted for the lightweight z1 rotors, are you going to call the performance car police on me too?

Post more about it, and I’m happy to make fun of you

The problem ISNT putting performance parts on a street car - it’s doing so and pretending it’s about performance

I have a carbon varis hood that was almost 2 grand. It probably has a positive cooling effect but I ain’t got any problem sayin I got it because it looks cool


Homeboy posting about rotor material providing a difference when he ain’t going any faster than the Prius makin the same trip to the store

Honesty man.
