Or am I better off swapping pads before and after?
If you really want to the best possible performance from your brakes, you're better off swapping back n forth. If you don't want that hassle, you can always run the track pads on the street. Just expect more dust and possibly more noise, depending on the pad. As long as you don't go for a really agrrssive pad, it will still reach operating temps on the street.

As for lines, I recommend Agency Power. The price/performance ratio is great on most of their stuff. I'd do rotors before lines though if it were my car. The 370Z is new enough that your lines are still in good shape. Steel lines just give you better pedal feel and can make pedal modulation easier. The biggest improvements will be seen on older cars.
