I would recommend the DBA T3 4000 serious, but the newest model out, there on our shop 370z and it is used for time attack events, no complaints and work

RE: Are your brake ducts being fed into the center of the rotor? If so, you really should change from stock rotors as directional rotors would really benefit from your existing brake ducts. But then again the stockers are not bad by themselves either.

Yes they are. Buying better rotors will be in my future, but trying to figure out price vs effectiveness is confusing. Stock are cheap and will not kill me.
Remember rotor is virtually a heat sink, it doesn't really increase braking performance (unless you are overheating the crap out of your brakes). Cryo treat will make the bonds stronger and make it stronger and possibly last longer. Save your money on better pads and tires, much better bang for the buck!

Yes, wasnt cheap. I went through a pretty new set of pads my 3rd heat on the first day of racing. I saw first hand what hard breaking and heat does to the fluid not to mention going metal to metal.

If you have something weak on the car, it will only get magnified when your on the track . (Sorta like the loss of fuel in long hard right turns.) Anyone who races or tracks the Z knows this is a huge problem
