So, you want to see sexxxy? (Thanks Z1)
 
UPDATE:
Took my car to "the track". Compared to OEM anything is better, so aside from that, the handling IS better, but the quickness or how much faster the car slows down from speed is night and day. Cutting that rotational mass by a third does a lot, and you I can definitely feel it! 120-0 distances have definitely decreased! Awesome mod
Next step, brake cooling ducts!



OG Post:
My Z1 2 piece rotors just came in (with matching 1 piece rears), and are being installed as we speak! I cannot wait to put these to the test!
I really thought Z1 was lying about 20lbs a piece, but good good damn, they really are 20lbs!

Build quality is great, hardware looks great. I like the venting and space between the hat and the rotor.


Pic (I would've taken more but I already did a fluid flush and just want to get out driving! :driving:)

Big thanks to John@Z1. And now that there is a Black Friday sale and the price dropped, I think everyone should buy a set, it's too good of a deal to pass up!


Oh and tell him "Andrew, the ásshole" sent you, lol



(Will update shortly with first driving experience soon)

In Fontana they steal your hubcaps while you're still driving the car.

DarkJak 11-27-2013 02:05 PM

Oh man, just looked at that that Black Friday sale page. Looking forward to the sale, definitely gonna get a set of those 2 piece rotors!

XPNSD IT 11-27-2013 02:06 PM

The handling and especially the BRAKING ability with lighter rotors is awesome

Waiz 11-27-2013 02:28 PM

Nice!

Did you post photos of the new wheels yet?

How do you not have a build thread on this forum yet but I have one for my Fit? :roflpuke2:

Nope, and nope! Lol

I don't usually take pictures of my car. I own it, I know what it looks like. But I do appreciate the photos other's take! And I have those saved in my phone. Lol


Maybe one day I'll make a build thread, and just got back from a break-in session. So I'll let the car cool off a bit and go out for another drive

I love how these were $500, then they jacked the price to $650, now everyone thinks they're getting a deal at $500.

For a while on their site they were $500 and I was going to pull the trigger cause it was way cheaper than $1900 Racing whoevers but they were to new with no real experience yet. I'd say its been 2 months or so when they went up to $650.

I picked up the two piece drilled and slotted front rotors. I didn't see any rear sets. Were they planning on coming out with those sometime soon?

Over the phone with John@Z1, I was told to expect them within the next 2-3 months. I'm pretty excited!

That happens with anything that is new on the market… Look at General Tires for instance, their exclaim uhp in a oem size for my g35c was $50 when they first came out and now they are around $175 if you can find them. Its just apart of life homie..

GSS138 12-02-2013 09:13 PM
