Ever look into.DBA or EBC rotors?

I could be wrong, but I believe the '13 Nismo's are coming with R35 brake fluid. Isn't R35 brake fluid Dot 5?

My mistake, R35 is Dot 4.

EBC Ultimax sport rotors
EBC Redstuff pads

I have been running these all summer, track days included and they absolutely rock. Almost no dust at all and have not heard a peep out of them yet.

:iagree:

Whats wrong with drilled rotors?

If you don't track the car, it shouldn't crack.

nothing, but knowing something that is mainly for looks cant handle certain temps makes me not want them. (hope that made sense)

would that run good on a nismo 370z??

Bringing this thread back -

My Akebonos are also toast, heavy wobble when they heat up. The dealer confirmed that they are warped today. Im getting the two front rotors replaced via nissan with new pads. Ive never had brake fade, despite beating my brakes pretty good, I've just had the wobble. The stopping power is also extremely impressive so i decided to stay stock. Although if i decide to track this summer i will look into a higher temp fluid.

AK did you get new rotors/pads? How are they compared to stock if there's a difference?

Definitely stick with slotted rotors, don't want to move into drilled rotors, drilled rotors are only for looks, they serve no purpose to heat dissipation/cooling. Pads, if you go with the Hawk Performance Ceramics you may be a bit disappointed in their lack of bite, however they are an ultra-low dust pad.

And their utter destruction of your rotors, lol.

Good thread. I only street drive my car. Pads are fine, Rotors warped for the third time in less that 20k miles. Nissan uses some **** Rotors, just sayin. Going with z1 slotted only.

I have 51k on my car with no warped rotors...sounds like some people don't know how to brake properly. Park you car with hot rotors=warped rotors over time.

whaaaa?:confused:

Some people obviously do not understand how to brake correctly...
