What sets one brake setup apart from another?

Agreed.

Alan, did you get the g37s application for the carbotechs? I am going to get the same setup.. been planning on it for a while, but I've been caught up in the forward moving bits.

If you car was primarily a street car that didn't see the track, would you still switch to the carbotechs?

You wouldn't.

Why not? I'm considering the XP8s or XP10s for a daily driver. From reviews, they are still supposed to have good initial bite even when cold. I think I can live with a little more dust and noise.

I don't think you would be happy using the XP10/8 combination on the street. Stopping power wouldn't be an issue, but the sound would be horrible. Keep the carbotechs for the track and just swap in your stock pads for the street. That's what I did for my 350Z. I'm running stock pads at Blue Grass Motorsports Park on May 2nd to see how they hold up, but plan to upgrade to some Carbotechs later.
