If you think you can warp a rotor at 1500 miles, please go right ahead. Unless someone tracked the living piss out of it and then pee on it, there is no way they can warp.

I always pee on my rotors to cool them down, is that wrong?

to warp it 1500 miles, you might need a group of guys giving it a golden shower together

oh yeah, the rotors are giant on the 370. If it is that easy to warp a 370z rotor, the ones on the economy will warp before they drive out of the dealership...

If I recall correctly, I put a question mark on it as I wasn't sure since camber on the Z isn't adjustable and I am not sure how that effects toe. What does that have to do with brakes anyway? Pad deposits and warped rotors are completely different things.

i am not an expert on spacer, but it seems wrong to me since 45mm sticks out more than 25mm. wouldnt adding a 20mm spacer to the 25mm wheel make it stick out to 45?
