The AP Racing systems currently available (there are several options for the 370Z) are significantly better than anything else mentioned in this thread thus far. The "extra" money spent might actually be an investment that won't need to be repeated later, something that can't always be said when pushing unproven equipment hard.

Don't let the specs on a sheet confuse you. A lot of companies can go to cheap sources for 4/6/8/??? piston calipers and 15" cheap iron rotors. Very few companies stake their entire reputation on engineering and performance. AP Racing is a globally recognized leader in that group for a large number of reasons.

Something to think about...

Chris

P.S. Did you know that the fastest production car in the world, the Bugatti Veryon Super Sport that just ran 268mph, uses AP Racing brakes as standard equipment?
i have a question about the AP/Stillen BBK...is it true that only the Caliper is made by AP and all the other components are Stillen sourced?..thanks in advance.
